Default Real Bad TA

So I was out "getting groceries" in my Cobra yesterday, when I saw this TA with really loud exhaust he was revving at everybody, weaving in and out ,and punching it when he could. He was just showing his butt, until I could not stand it any longer. I jumped up beside him kicked it down a gear and held it there ready to go. He looked for a moment and then just slowed down. I slipped it into the next gear and just eased off, thinking what a "Real Bad TA". I guess he was just all bark and no bite.

I like doing that to drivers with slower cars who act Billy Badass on the road. When they come up behind me and try to pass, I just stomp on it for about 3 seconds and wait for them to catch up. That usually makes them simmer down a bit.
It's especially effective with the cutout open.

Dood, I think that was me. I was just trying to reach for my bottle to open it and you just acted like you weren't interested after that. [8D]

You need to get you an easy access valve. My power is always on tap.

By the way how is it you ended up with HP and TQ numbers that are exactly 500 and 500?

Well, it he just could have got that valve open, we could have seen which way he rounded to get 500 even.

HAHA! That's classic! I actually made 500.3 and 497.x after driving the car 30 miles and driving it straight on the dyno. No ice, no tricks, dry shot, stock fuel system. I only have it on video and two dyno graphs though, oh yea, and one of the members on this site went with me to video tape it all.

I would LOVE to find out which way I rounded. I've already found out on a couple of Cobra's, hell one was on video and I was only making 367rwhp at the time. It was ugly.

Ever try to race anyone on motor? Sure is nice to beat people without having to use a power adder.
