So Saturday night I gave into peer pressure. My nephew and I went out to Telegraph and Joy road and stopped in at the 50 s MC Donalds. For those of you that don't know this is the local spot where all the muscle cars and pimped out rides meet. Looks like a fuckin car show. We drive around for a while and first fun of the night a Mitsubishi 3000 GT and a 2000 Mustang Cobra. So I pull in the third lane and I already know that the cobra is going to be out like trout by the sound of it but who cares. We all gun it and get from 15 - 75 mph and traffic gets in front. At that point however I was a car and a half of the 3000 GT and very slightly behind the cobra. Can my car take a 2000 worked up beautiful cobra ? So next light it is just me and the cobra. He allows me to go from 20 mph and we go and all the way to the very very top of third it was close..... and then not anywhere close after that he handed me my ass. It continued to generate a shit load of power. So move on to 20 mins later and I see the same Cobra and a totally race n ready 74 trans am. These two take off from a dead stop to what appeared to be 100 + and it was neck and neck. I say appeared to be because I wasn't about to go that speed .. ( Not yet ) At that point I realized the cobra gave it a lot of power when we ran but not all he had. So on to a race from a dig. ( This was a very exciting night indeed ) An 18-20 yr old kid with a 2002 mustang GT ( I asked ) and his girlfriend pull to the light. He revved a couple times as did I and we take off. No wheel hop through 1st ( I got rid of that ) A very slight spin in 2nd. We were neck and neck and in second he was a 1/4 panel ahead and im thinking fuck so I squeeze every available RPM out in 2nd and shit to third where I pull ahead we go to about 95 and I was slightly more than a half car ahead. We get to the next light him and his girlfriend were cool they both give thumbs up and were like your cobalt is no fuckin joke. So now I am feeling top of the world. I make one more long pass down Telegraph and ooopps someone told the boys we were street racing because they were posted up everywhere. I stop there head home and post about it. Sorry for the bible I wrote but it was just one of those nights where your car is running amazingly and everything lines up.

Cool man....It's going to be war this year at the Woodward cruise...LOL. I hope were setting something up for that too!!!

There is a gentlemen named blainestang on ss.net that is driving his Bullitt up from Florida. So I told him we would meet up. Hit me up around that time and we will all roll together.

for sure...

Hell ill be there

Sounds awesome!

I'm not to familiar with 00 Cobras, I know they aren't supercharged stock, but its a great kill reguardless. Nice job hanging with it, and also on killing the 3000GT and Stang GT. You got any pics of your cobalt with the blue neon kit at night??

I call B.S., there was no 2000 Cobra, lol jk. It had to be a 1999 or 2001. After the fiasco with the 1999 Ford took a year off, except for the 2000 Cobra R but I highly doubt that was what you raced since they are pretty rare.

Now that you mention it, I dont really recall seeing to many 00 Cobras.

This was the only Cobra released in 2000, the Cobra R. There were only 300 made and all were painted this color (Performance Red). They came with a 5.4L DOHC engine and produced 385 HP and 385 lb.-ft. of torque. Basically it was a straight up street legal race car. I'd love to have one. I'd take it over any other current Mustang.

Ford has made 3 Cobra R's so far, a 1993, 1995, and the 2000. Hopefully they will make one out of the new Mustang also, but I think it is unlikey with the death of SVT.

The 2000 cobra R was a silly fast mid to high 12 second car.

i don't think svt is really dead. FoMoCo moved svt in house but svt still played a part in the recent gt500. there are indeed svt badges on the new shelby. i hope to see some new stuff from svt in the future. a new lightning or a badass focus would be sweet.

From what I read, the GT500 was the last SVT car. I hope you are right though, I'd love to see an SVT Fusion.

I hope svt isn't dead, but where is the adrenaline? and the last svt i saw was a focus, what a horrible car. i'm sure the SS n/a would beat that too. If svt does come back i hope it has something respectable so that i can have a good race in my ss/sc. i don't want to see a shelby focus. that would destroy shelby's good name. regardless i bet the g6 gxp>svt fusion. :rolleyes: i love internet racing. :D

FoMoCo needs to bring some of their Euro cars over here. Imagine a boosted Focus. It would definitely push the big three into making better sport compacts.

^^^Yeah, instead of just 2.

ford needs to bring over some of their aussie vehicles. check these out:

Can someone tell me why ford and chevy offer better cars overseas than here? Their killing the GTO, I have to wait to 2008 so i can buy my camaro, the bad ass focus is only in europe? what give??? :confused:

EMISSIONS!!! Europe has lower emission standards than the US. As for the GTO, it will be back when the Camaro arrives, in retro also. I've seen sketches.

I have seen the GT 500 already both Vert and reg top they look sweet and yes they have SVT badges, also i saw a White Cobra R yesterday along with the GT 500s maybe the guy just bought a reg GT and put the ground fxs on it to mimic the R.

This is all I have to say. . .well, i'll let them say it

I think this is my favorite part

"The GT500 is the most powerful factory Mustang ever. Its supercharged 5.4-liter, 32-valve V-8 evolves from SVT's experience with supercharging the "MOD" engine to deliver more than 450 horsepower and 450 foot-pounds of torque."

A lot of people here at the base do that--throw an R kit on a stock GT--it's soooo tacky, if you ask me. Blech, I say! heh.

Whoa guys settle it down. I never said I killed the Cobra. REREAD THE POST ! I said the cobra busted my ass. As for the year I was taking a guess and since it had an S/C I have been told it was a 2003 by another forum member. Wow do I ever hope everyone reads this post to know I'm not some bullshitting ass clown. I said I took the Mustang GT GT GT GT GT GT. GOT IT ? Let me sum it up for those of you that don't know. I said the cobra and I were close to 75 but he was obviously holding back. After 75 he walked away like I was parked. I think a lot of you read 1/2 the thread and came to conclusions. Good day AND STOP SMEARING ME ! BAWAAHAHAHAHAA

Im not really upset.... it;s the internet ! LOL Just wanted everyone to know im not a 16 year old retard thinking I am a cobra killer. I apologize to all 16 year old retard cobra killers this was in no way meant as a derogatory statement :D

Well we already think your a 16 year old retard you have FAILED!!!!!

You know im just playing i hope.

Did anyone else listen to the sound byte featured on the site, i think it sound like a sissy girl for a GT 500 it should have deep more aggressive sound to rather than the top of your lungs raspy sound, it might just be the sound quality is crappy.
