embarrassing, well not for me. The first cobra driver was probably
embarrassed, or a real newb.
They should beat me stock. Not kill me though. I know "it's just a neon"
but I don't think you guys get how fast this car really is.
I mean, I have one of the slower ones. Some kid just posted a 10 second 1/4
mile slip on one of the forums I am on with his. Course that's with a 150
shot of NOS and a bunch of work, with over 500 horsepower coming out of
that little 4 banger :)
Hopefully in a year or so I will be running around 400 horse power with a 50
shot doing 11s.

Don't know about that. One the drive back yesterday, I was passed by a
Shelby Cobra GT. I was doing about 90 at the time and this thing passed me
by as if I were standing still.
It would probably blow your doors off if you tried to outrun it.
