There will always be someone who spends the extra buck and usually wins .... and you will always have the cry baby who complains they lost because of this or this.......

I just know no matter how fast I go there will always be someone with the $$$ who is going to go faster no matter what kinda car you have..

whoa.. off topic but do you have any nice size pictures of your car w/ them rims?

If you think that all there is to a fast car is a high hp number you need to sell your car and get a bike... the 600's only have 100-115hp... man, they are slow too...

Thank you.

So do 99's and 01's.... the CI block on the 03 is there for strength... you wouldnt want the fancy pants aluminum block exploding on you when you feed it 8lbs+...

Is that a joke? Because it's really funny...

Guys, I love the mod-ability of my 03 Cobra. Stock for stock the Z06 is the faster car 9 out of ten times. Are cars are 2+2 modern Muscle cars while the Z06 Vette is a purpose built sports car. I will get the same hp #s for my 03 Cobra that I did for my 01 SS for 10 grand less. I like drag racing. I live around chicago and 90% of the streets are st8. (every street is on a freaking grid) I sold the Z06 got my 03 Cobra, a dually disel Chevy (for work). The next GM car I'll but will be the CTSv. The only Question is what car t0o make more of a race car the 03 Cobra or the 01 Camaro SS?????????????

I've owned both, the Z06 is faster stock to stock, no question about it.
You POS comment shows your ignorance, quite being a dick!!!

That looks really familiar. Looks a lot like perimeter mall's parking deck.

It was off of the Marta Parking Garage in Dunwoody

Guess I am a looser then, you arrogant jerk!!! Pull you head out of your rear, there is much more to a car than it's straight line acceleration.

I raced one, 2003, the guy was a nerd, didn't even acknowledge we were gonna go at it when the light turned green, he belted it, and by the time I realized what he was doing, I started hard with just my mods (minus the subframe connectors). My front bumper was like 2 meters behind his bumper and through the top of 2nd gear, HE DID NOT PULL ON ME AN INCh, I slowed (Scottsdale Road near Goldwater), like middle city, and he continued to higher speed (45mph speed limit at that location, he was probably pushing 70-80mph), he turned off very quickly, WHAT A DICK!! I think he was surprised, thanks, Doc.

Daily is a BMW R1100SA.

One runs, one is being prepped to slay your fleet of imperial cars.

Beware!


BTW have either of your 2000Rs come out of their bubble? Garage queens!
