Default modded 99 cobra gainst a comptech blown s2k

im sitting at a light on 46 in jersey. not really expecting much cause its a random tuesday night. so i see red roadster pull up behind the car next to me. we get to the next light and whatdya know, hes next to me. my car cams pretty well and has a nice mean exhaust note, so he pulls up and compliments the car, i do the same. we decide to go from the light. He tells me he has a blower and all the accompanying accessories, ok sounds good. So i leave the light at like 3500, spin the dr's a little, and proceed to put like 1.5 car lengths on him in first and second, then i put another on him in third, and it stayed that way, till i backed off at around 110. good race, cool guy, gave me the thumbs up and a rev, and i had to get off, it was a good race.

You sound like a knowledgeable person, so I look forward to seeing some of your posts! (or arguing with you... hehe)

Welcome to the board.

Nice kill!

Few questions... Don't '99 Cobras come with IRS stock, not a solid axle? Can you explain how your car "cams pretty well?" Never heard that phrase before.
