![]() My friend just bought a brand new Type R a few weeks ago (the fool traded a '95 Cobra for it...). I raced him from a stoplight after he first broke it in, and even with a passenger and him by himself, I took him by at least 3-4 cars when we hit 60mph.
This week he went out and bought a catback exhaust and a cold air intake. He thought his car was pretty fast now, so he heckled me into a rematch. We headed out from my friend's house and drove through town. It was late, so there was no traffic, but we were just getting no love from the stoplights. Finally we get to the freeway onramp, and I'm right behind him. He thinks he's going to get the jump on me because his car can handle, but he underestimates my suspension setup. We both jump on it an cut the apex, and I shoot for the far lane of the freeway while he takes the inside. At this point he's got about two cars on me since he got the jump coming out of the corner. I must admit his car pulled hard, but I started reeling him in fast at the top of third gear and passed him at about 90mph. We both stayed in it to win it, but I took him by at least 5 cars by the time my speedo read 130... Best part is, he used to edge me with his Cobra... ------------------ 2000GT Atlantic Blue: Cobra R Wheels-17x9 255/40/17, 17x10.5 315/35/17, tubular K-member & control arms, Tokico 5-ways, coil overs, sway bars, 70mm FMS throttle body, Saleen nose. 79 Pace Car: Maximum Motorsports full suspension, Weld Draglites, 302 w/ Edelbrock Performer intake, cam and carb, BBK equal-lengths & H-pipe, 2 chmbr flo's, 8.8 trak-loc, TCI C4 w/ 2000 rpm stall |
