Default Z06 VS 538 RWHP 03' Cobra (pbj03)

I've had alot of people asking me about this so i'll post the kill even though Pat is my freind ...The first time we tried this from a 50 mph roll and as soon as I stepped on it I lost control of my car very badly do too serious traction problems and stopped.(there is a video somewhere and it's scary ). Next run we agreed to a 60 ish roll, and this time I took off on motor first to help my traction problems then I hit the juice and pulled on the Kennie Bell Cobra pretty quickly, I really don't know at what point he let off so i'll let him chime in as to the actual margin of victory.. It was fun too say the least!! Pat when you get some juice will have to go at it again..

Good kill. It was scary watching you go sideways at around ~50, I can't imagine what it looked like in the car. :o Props on the save though.

actually when you get sideways in a car like that, it looks much worse outside of the car.

Yea he was on F1's I thought you were goin' into the wall for sure, glad you got it facing the right direction again. Nice kill though! Pat...must be nice to even think about racing cars like that after 1 mod, now just get that thing to Lamotta to squeeze out the rest of that power.

538 seems low for a KB Cobra, all the ones I've seen Sam do at Coastal have been around 600 on his MD dyno. Does the 03 have full exhaust and stuff or is it just the blower and nothing else?

Very rich tune on it right now. He's going to have it tuned soon, those numbers will definately be rising.
