RE: corvette bye bye!
Sorry if I left that part out, yes the Cobra is hopped up too. I was just arguing about what stock means and what people always say it means. No matter where the work was done, factory or garage, all sports cars are hopped up.

RE: corvette bye bye!
Earlier in this post you guys mentioned that a import pulls up next to a vette and wants to race?
Is this the same one when a yellow vette i believe is next to these import guys. The import guys rev on the vette and are talking ****, like look at this ***** in the vette, I guess he's to ***** to race us. They keep talking **** and the next thing you know the vette drops it down a gear and shoots off like a rocket.
All you hear from them is "Holy ****". I guess he wasnt ***** or something like that. It was some funny **** anyways.

Again, you say all this bad stuff about Chevy's, yet Ford supercharged the Cobra to keep up with them. How is the Vette "hoped" up and the Cobra isn't?

Like I said a thousand times before. A stock Corvette means the owner didn't do ****. All the engineering and new and better parts put on than from Vettes in years past are done at the factory, which in my book still consitutes hopping up a car. Stock doesn't mean that an older Corvette gave birth to a new one and that's the way it runs. Somebody engineered and built it, buddy.

I dont see it as they (Ford) hopped up the Cobra to "keep up" with them... I see it as they equaled out the whole 69 cubic inch difference between the two motors.

OK I said most people would not. But now are you saying a Ferrari is in the class as a Mustang well we know that it is not.

this post is so old! i couldn't believe it when i saw it! BTW that was a Red C5, not yellow. Yeah SI I love that video, and I heard he swapped it for a SC too.
SI did you mean to say Z51 FRC? Cuz otherwise I have never heard of a Z51R unless its just an add on mod to make it into one.

No, in the video the car had a Z51-R badge on the fender.
Link to the car in the video
The link to the video is at the bottom of the page.... when they go from a stop they show the fender and it says Z51- R
