Mods are in the beginning of the movie-HKS intakes, Koyo Radiator, Downpipe, Cat-back, Apexi Power FC tuned by PFS. 311whp but 2700lbs we have similar power to weight ratios .3 of a (6.6 vs 6.3lb/hp for me) lb away! But I beat him driving

MI35- I do have an EVO kill but not on video, anytime I can video tape a few runs win or lose believe me I do. That Cobra hasnt run down the 1/4. His care is powerful but again watch that guy fall back on the shifts he loses the ground he makes up in powerband. Obviously hes gonna come by me at higher speeds but I was happy to hold him off for nearly 100mph run as he thought he was gonna smoke me. Check out the threads in the street racing forum if you want more info on these races.

Alberto we all know you are a good driver but I don't think your driving had everything to do with this race. You pulled away after the first shift. You are always talking about how great of a driver you are its getting old. Don't get me wrong I love the videos you post and all the input you have on this forum but you are always talking about how you are a driving god.

Wake up and see what happened here. We had similar power to weight ratios. We were pretty even UNTIL he grabbed 3rd and fell back considerably-you cannot deny this. If he had driven his car better it would have been much closer, I stated the truth, this isnt an opinion, if you dont like to hear/read it dont read any of my posts. And BTW-you could search this forum for days and NEVER find a post where I said "I am the best driver/driving God" or anything like that. Others post things like what you described above I cant control them. But again you dont like it, add me to your ignore list

Alberto, I don't think you should take that personal either.. I have to somewhat agree with DBZ33.

You have almost 100whp on that guy and more importanly, you probably have tons more torque. Remember that FDs can make crazy power but you can't beat the torque out of the 3.5 liter.. you do have 400ft.lbs if I can read your sig right. That is a lot of power on the street, your car is a beast and I'm sure you are one hell of a driver as well.

Hey it had the potential to be a close run, it wasnt really but it was fun. 2700lbs vs 3300lbs take that into account as well guys But yeah I make more tq @ the wheels at 3000rpm than he does peak-which was 268ft/lbs...Im looking for a C5 Z06 or C6 to run next.

Where are you getting your 2700 pounds from?Both of mine where closer to 2900.I also thought that track z was closer to 3200 but I know you have extra weight from TN.No offence or anything but your car probly has 150 lbs more tq then that 7 with stock turbos.The seq twins just cant make any tq to speak of.
