Killed a 01 cobra..

[MGannaway]

not neccesarily. I wouldnt doubt that this cobra ran into the same problem I did against mike. we just arent geared from the factory to do well from 40-50 rolls. sure we might drag his lights out from a twenty or dig, but mike knows how to drive his car and its geared to its utmost potiential for those kind of races. say all you want, but until you see him run, dont talk shit. because he will make a believer out of you pretty quick.

You can't drive either. My stock 5.0 back in the day went 8.42@82 so his car is slow.

.. and why do you assume im a bad driver? Im not saying his car is fast by whatever standard. Im saying that he probably did beat that cobra. you say with a "good driver" when a three year old can roll race. It takes no skill. mike never said anything about being able to drag the cobra at the track. he simply stated the outcome of his run in with it.

And how do you define stock? Slicks and 5K rpm launches?

I see "stock" Fox bodies run low 9s/high 8s at NSD. Seen "stock" aod's run 10.00.

If you got beat by a stock pushrods junker motor then you can't drive.

1.86 60 ft not a very hard launch

go look at the 02 gt slaughter forum and read up my good sir. Then you can blame ford for spacing the gears so far apart. I would take him from a dig.

lol....that's what i thought. that's not on stock tires.

8.42 stock?

And what else was left of the car?

A seat?

Sure, slicks and weight mods would put me in the mid 8s aswell.

You talk shit and be a dick until you realize that my 9.0 was on street tires 225/55/16 with a 2.0 60ft.

You do that with 2.73 as well?

Before you go calling people dumb You need to check the facts. I don't care what should happen, it's what happen.

Btw, cobraman. If traction wasnt an issue for me I'd eat you from a dig.

Less weight, same torque, more aggressive gearing.

1/8th mile I'd be way out, 1/4 mile youd start to pull.

3300lbs at 3.27 < 3000lbs at 3.73.

Allow me to interject here, I'm not going to call you all sorts of names and usual stupid internet banter stuff, but I strongly disagree about roll racing takes no skill. Perhaps at your horsepower level it doesn't require much skill, but at the levels of alot of guys these running anywhere from 600hp to 1000rw+, it takes a shitload of skill to keep a car straight and get it to hook from any roll speed. You just haven't experienced that level of horsepower quite yet.

I can't wait till this Thursday, I hope you show up because I need to see this car run for myself. lol.

That's what I'm saying. Who cares stock 5.0s are slow and so is any mod motor that gets beat by a stock 5.0 lol
