ORIGINAL: codyss
I raced some kids video taping from a 2002 GT in my Camaro SS last year. He had drag radials and a few bolt-on's with 3.73 gears.
The kid taping was so sure they would win. We went on his count and he jumped me by a car right away since I spun. The kid taping went ape**** and was cheering his pal on.
I will still never forget the look on his face when passed them like they were standing still around 70mph. You know that the last half of that race was accidentally taped over.
I have driven both and owned both my 2003 GT could stick with a LS1 stop light to stop light but that was all.

Nice run. I had a run in with one a while back and we went from about a 55 roll or so and I dumped it into 2nd and he jumped me by like 3 lengths but then I held him. Think he sprayed or somethin. Nice run though

RE: Had a first tonight..
and I disagree with the 99+ cobras the non sc ones... they aren't as fast as them, but it's still a race... i dont think he sprayed on him... but stock for stock there is a race there... because unless ive run into a TON of really crap drivers which I doubt.. my lil bolt on GT does decent against them, and have even beat a couple here and there, and I doubt that i'd beat the cobras... Just haven't found one to race yet... only got picked apart by a supercharged one, haha...

RE: Had a first tonight..
meh, i wou;dn't say that. didn't you run and your wife run like a 13.3 with a stocj auto LS1? an n/a cobra won't run that stock. well, probably could, but you'd have a better shot running that with the LS1.
