I wish I had a '96-'98 Cobra instead of a 2V GT.. that 13.6 could be a bottom 13 easy.

Stock for Stock it's a drivers race

I have 0 dollars saved up for a tuner. I'm going to buy one around christmas time.

I lost pretty badly. I'm going to post a vid and leave it up for 24 hours because I need to learn how to edit faces and license plates. After the race I asked what mods he had and he said "bone-stock" I then asked if he would pop the hood and he said no he has to get back to work

I would have to guess he has some kind of mods... I remember taking down a 97 and a 98 cobra vert with my bolt on LT1 car and it was running mid 13s at the time (Best trap was a 106 iirc).

I have no idea why the audio and video have such poor quality. On my iphone 5s it looks crystal clear and the audio is too loud.... Read the about section too on Youtube

Right?^^ I mean who buys a Cobra and keeps it stock? Especially when the mods are relatively cheap now.

I put money that he's at least geared and maybe some exhaust work. Not trying to sound like a dick but I stayed closer to a 98 cobra than you did. And his had a mid pipe and geared. Get some gears and run em again!
