Lightbulb Chevy owner BITTER

I have waited almost one year for my 2001 cobra, and so have my friends especially one in particular who own a camaro, he has been bugging me to race from day one and everytime i see him on the street he is always trying to race me. Now i didnt want to lose this friend so i declined his poor attempts to race him especially having modified this cobra with x pipes and a vortech blower. until one day when we met up and he brought along more of his chevy friends with what they thought their new (mareo's) could put a dent in this snake of mine. needless to say i SPANKED all of them and i made sure they knew that cobras and fords are timid owners until you piss them off then we just smoke you!!!

I'm not trying to upset you or flame or anything but.. bs will not fly on this board.. the guys here can see it coming. Maybe you do have what you said but its just hard to believe that you spent that kinda money and didn't know it wasn't spelled vortexx(though its possible). Also, I didn't know a year ago that they were gonna make a 2001 cobra so.. that adds to my skepticism. Anyhow, maybe you do have what you said and maybe you need to add a bigger maf and some gears to that combo.
Welcome to the board...
