Post Race with 12sec Cobra

Ok, I am at a local university with some friends in a car club were I meet up with a guy with a 93 cobra, it had 4:10's, cold air, diferent cam, shifter, 275 DR's, underdrives and some other stuff. Really clean car something like 42K miles. He says he runs 12.8@106 on Dr's so we go out to line them up. I figured he would hammer me out of the hole and I would run him down. Well we line up and have a friend start us, I tried a new launch technice slipping/dropping the clutch at 2K needless to say my car hooks hard, and I am even out of the hole, I jam second and I start pulling I ended up beating him by several cars. The next run we lined up with me having a passenger, again even through first then I grab second and it is over. He said he cuts 1.7 60fts!! Maybe this new launch technique works.

PS his car looked awsome when he heated the DR for like 10 sec!! Prior to racing

Also getting ready to order the Eibach pro launch kit and 90/10's!
