Default Another terminator story

Well, here goes:


Cruisin through town on the way home from taco bell, pulling out into a two-lane highway in town. Get to the next light, and see a Cobra in the other lane, one car up(he was first at light) Sitting there thinking----this could be fun if it opens up, notice the tail-lights--no yellow trim at the bottom---so with that said, a terminator is found. With this, being found, I immediatly open the console, flip on the bottle heater, and flip the switch for the bottle opener(THIS OWNS ALL, for the nitrous equipped) Go through the light, the cobra is just chillin, makin a little racket to let me know he's there(as was I). Car in front of me turns off-----YES!!!!!!!

Go thru the next light side-by side. Nothing both cruising, but constant looking at each other. Go thru the next light, starting to get out into the county. No traffic around, again cruising side by side. Get to around 40 or so, and the guy gives me the look hits the horn--as I return, then he downshifts(again, as do I) as we drop to roughly 30mph, and hegives three count motion on his fingers, and proceeds to honk three times.

Man it was awesome--I hit the switch immediatly(hand already on it) Pull a little instant(maybe half a car at best) and stay there until 100 mph. Got him by a half car to a 100. Feeling really good about things--thinking hell yea, run my first termi, and didnt get slaughtered.



i live shortly up the road, so I put on my signal to turn, and the guy gets behind me, thinking cool, he wants to BS. Anyways, long story short, found out the guy lives right up the road from me, has a built new-edge gt, and is cool as hell. Going out cruising next weekend. Gotta say, looking foward to it.

There is a guy in my neighborhood that drives a 03 yellow cobra thats LOUD.. I have always wanted to just talk to him but everytimeI see him or pull behind him he just punches it and leaves me behind. Kinda sucks, but it is amazing listening to his s/c scream ha ha.

I doubt it was if the GT makes those numbers with nitrous and puts only half car.

nice run!

probably a pulley intake exhaust car i would guess. at best. even those mods would give it about 450hp 475 tq in a lighter body than the s197. so it may have been an intake tune car, i have seen a few of those making around 420.
