Exclamation Who's this a video of ? Erniet or Anthony?

I can't tell, it's the last race of video.

BTW, that new cobra is with a complete factory stock Shelby GT500 Production 5.4L 4V engine .

It was me last saturday. Same video I posted when I ran 10.04@144mph.
That car was wicked fast. I took him out of the hole. He passed me at the 1/8th doin 125mph to my 115mph!
They took a shelby cobra and swapped in two T-66 turbos in place of the supercharger, put a turbo 400 auto in and a 9" solid rear. But the motor was bone stock. He ran a 8.97 against me.

What's so insane about that? That motor is already fully built up from the factory.

My friend has a stock block(stock cams pistons ect.) 2jz supra with a good turbo and over 120,000 miles and runs low 10's with full interior, stock suspension, and at captiol raceway(not the best place to hook up). His best time was a 10.3 but gets kicked out since he does not have a roll cage(he dont want to mess up the interior). Not 8's but still on a high mileage stock block he still has more room for the 9's.

Still, Ernie you are getting there just need to get that new tranny in and get the suspension setup. I havent seen your car in person yet, but man it looks fast.

I want to just get into the 10's and i will be happy. But for now i need to get my rx7 rebuilt.

I agree...that is pretty insane that a stock block basically showroom car to be able to crack an 8. They make it look so easy. Competition is getting tougher by the day. My poor little RX-7 can barely keep up.
