![]() Coming home from the movies last night I had two really close races.
I have 4 people in the car and I came up on a new celica, with a big wing on it. We take off, he jumps on it a tad before me, and Im in 3rd at about 65-70, (~4000rpm). We hold damn near dead even till the top of 3rd (120mph) I slowly pulled on him to 130, but that thing was ******* fast, must have been turbo'd. About 5min later, I got a early 70's nova w/ a 5" cowl hood and big tach. Hit it from about 60mph I pulled on him slowly to about 110-120, from there to 140 I pulled 4-5 cars out on him. Everyone wants to race this cobra. Probably cuz its bone stock. Skyler

![]() Way to go. The more you drive and get use to the 32V 4.6 the faster it seems
![]() Gotta love the top end with the stock gears ![]()

![]() Yeah your right. Its weird. The more I do drive this car the faster it feels to me. While its just the opposite with my 5.0. The more I drive it the slower the thing feels. I dont get it.

![]() The Celica probably had a turbo or nitrous and other mods...
Gotta suck to put lots of cash in a car and still lose... oh well, guess he shouldn't have got a Celica.. ![]()

![]() Awesome! Love to hear it.
ALthough, I don' t consider the Celica all that fast (ESPECIALLY if it did have a TURBO......) if it got beat by a stock Cobra with FOUR passengers ![]() ![]() 140??? Heh. You were just having fun. Dude in the Nova had probably already turned off by then ![]()

![]() Everyone just wants to tell their friends how they beat a cobra so they can say how slow mustangs are.
