not bad, but can go faster? where are the low 12s?
what tires? with better tires or better launch should be low 12s

Nice race. That is f-ing close. Good luck getting to the 11s, more boost and better tires sound like a good start to get quicker times.

nice run. turn that boost up....

similar thing happened to me last time i was at the track but with a mach1 or something. i beat him, trapped higher MPH(110 to his 108) but he had a faster ET(12.7 to my 13.0).

yea watching the video is kind of weird. you can see clearly that the right hand lanes sign came on first.

That's because the cobra got a late start. The time for the ET doesn't start running until you "break the beams"

So, you could sit there at the line with a green lite for as long as you want, but until you start moving, your time doesn't start(well your reaction time will be adding up as soon as the tree goes green.)

The FC did cross the finnish line before the cobra and he was going faster than the cobra. but the time it took the cobra to break the beams and cross the finnish line was shorter than the FC's

hope i didn't confuse anyone lol

Either way good Kill!

this is drag racing right? he did win! watch any drag event and the first guy to the stripe wins. you don't get to sit on the start line in your top fueler and wait to go until you're f-ing ready. you see this same situation all the time in pro events where the loser runs a lower e.t. but loses because his reaction time sucked. nice kill.

Since I have an 03 Cobra as well as an RX-7 I'm not commenting on who won or might have won...

But you do have a very nice car and its very quick. Anything that can keep pace with a Supercharged Cobra has my respect!
