I was on my way home today with some hotwings for dinner when I pulled up to a redlight next to a 2002 Camaro SS. I looked over at the guy and he was looking straight ahead. The light turns green and we take off slowly because there are tracks just after the light. We get over the tracks and he gooses it. I couldnt do a thing because there is a car in my lane just ahead. So I slow down and fall in behind him to get around the car in my lane. Just as I get enough room to get back into the left lane, he guns it. I hit it and walked around him as if he were in a Yugo.

So he follows me and asks me to pull over and that I did. He gave me some great compliments (he said he's only been passed like that once and it was by a crotch rocket) LOL. Anyhoo... come to find out that he has a Moser 12 bolt in the rear, QA1 adjustable shocks all the way around, a 150 wet shot making 385 hp and 500 ft lb of tq. The motor was otherwise stock with a beefed up auto tranny. His best time in the quarter was an 11.1 @ 118 mph with a 1.5(?) short time. He was a cool guy and works in the hanger next to mine. He is gonna go to the track with us this friday.

 

Nice run.

 

Well i'd be very excited.

 

heck yea thats awsome. thats great when ya race a good sport and they dont get all mad about postle when things dont always work out there way. [sm=icon_cheers.gif]

 

Am I the only one that sees a problem with that? With a 150 shot, that car should have around 425-430 at the wheels...


But nice kill...(Like you expected any different with a 1,000,000,000 hp KB Cobra.)

 

hmmm maybe he meant to the wheels....and not shooting 150 but 75 maybe....???...[sm=vader.gif]

 

I dunno. He seems to be really big into racing and he seemed to know what he was talked about. Either way, he is going with us to the track and we will see what he runs.

 

maybe GOD fell asleep when his motor was built? you are right,cause then his motor
without juice only makes 240hp or so?? sounds really under rated IMO.

 

That does sound a little low for the LS1 on juice. Good kill though. My friend just traded in his '03 GT drop for a '03 Cobra making 499 to the wheels. I can't wait to go for a ride.

 

If he runs an 11.1 and you flew past him, what king of times are you turning in the 1/4?
