1-1 tonight

Pulled up next to a white cobra probably a 96 at a light. Didn't really think I'd get a race out of it as it was an older gentleman driving it. Surprisingly though we took off at the same pace and at about 15 we looked at each other and gunned it. Well I barely spun (had two other people in the car) and jumped on him quickly. I heard him shift, tires spun like crazy and he started to take off. He caught me by 70-75 an flew by. Next light we smiled and went our ways.

On the way home I noticed a teal 3rdgen in front of me, so I pulled up next to him. He heard me drop it into 3rd (D). We were going about 50. He gunned up, I gunned it and quickly caught and passed him. Slowed down to chat with him but he turned off.

Nice kill. Is it really fair to pick on an RS with your 5.7L.

Very cool races. Cobras are pretty quick. As far as with the RS did that guy even think he had a chance
