Although, he went head up with a turbo RX-7 and won by about half a car length.

03 Cobras in the Camaro, modded ones in the Mustang.
anything that has no power brakes because of its idle, things that make whirring noises as you go down the road, whooshing shifts, if it pulls the front wheels on the street I usually bow out as well.

killed a Lincoln LS 8 in a 60-120ish highway race
Killed and Audi TT Coupe from a stop
And some others not really worth menctioning, the weather has been to bad to really have fun..

I will race anything that looks like they wanna race. Don't really care too much what they are driving.. Its all for the fun and its part of getting a sporty car. If I wanted to be sitting in the middle lane soaking up cushy seats I would of got a luxury car..

only race I have had with the Cobra has been a G35 or a Z (couldn't tell at night) and a 99/01 Cobra....

Oh, I did have a 300ZX pace me nose to nose last night....couldn't tell if he was wanting to race or just looking...but it was bugging the crap out of me, so I left him (wouldn't call it a race, but feel pretty sure I would have taken him anyways...who knows, he may have been modded out the butt)

I haven't been in too many races w/ the Z yet, I lost to my brother's TA WS6, but I have beat a souped up Z31 Turbo and a Volvo C60 Turbo (I think that is the correct name). I can't wait to race a Mustang in my Z, but none of the Mustangs I see around here ever want to race.
In my Buick I've had more kills than I can remember. When I get it back on the road this summer, I'd really love to take on a Viper sometime, and there is a Porsce 911 turbo I'd love to take on. The only losses I have had in my Buick were a '57 Chevy w/ a nasty small block (when I had my 350), and a Fox body stang that runs either low 11's or high 10's.
In the BMW I beat a Ford Aspire and an '88 Colt Vista before it started giving me problems 2 days after I bought it. They were by far the most exciting races I've had!
