Yeah, im sure thats you. You can produce an edited video that could have been taken from anywhere on the internet. But you can't produce a picture in the 48 hrs you were given weeks ago. Thats not you, you dont own a car, stop saying you do.

Kind of funny... This seems like the same thing you posted back in this thread:
http://forum.ebaumsworld.com/showthread.php?t=57703&page=1&pp=40
Only then it was a Cammed '01 SS...
I gotta say your stuff just keeps getting more and more unbelievable.
Either way, the Camaro doesn't even pull away from the traffic behind it. Fact: If this is your video (which at this point is dubious at best) you are a fraud. There is no way the Camaro was racing you or he would have pulled hard on the traffic behind him at the light.
Nice job, fraudboy.

LMAO if that is you, what was the point of even calling this a race?
It was just "you" gunning it while the camaro just chilled.

Upon further review...
1) The SS wasn't racing.
2) The SS wasn't even and SS! Notice no hood scoop and the spoiler goes straight across the rear hatch and doesn't arc up like the SS spoiler does.
3) The SS might have even been a V6 Camaro! Watch on the right side just below the right rear turn signal. No badges... Either a debadged Z28 or a V6. Video isn't good enough to see the exhaust or wheels so can't say for certain.
Either way he wasn't racing.

I have another vid...go see it up there....
I'm actually in the vid in person. Can't miss me or my voice or my face. I'm wearing the black strictly pro shirt. I'm the one calling out Chris Johnson and I'm the owner of my car. W33 CBK Are my plates. Find out who they are registered to in Tx. I can't fake that can I? Or maybe I can give you my VIN then you can look up the make and find out I bought it at Planet Ford in Houston. Can I fake that? Or how about that I gave $9,500.00 as a down payment to a black guy named Ismael(sales man). Can I fake that? Or wait...maybe I faked my ins with USAA, a government ins agency. Did I pay them too? :icon_rofl :icon_rofl :icon_rofl :icon_rofl
You guys are funny.
3SeriesSport, did you get another upgrade? A cd or tint maybe? Don't be mad cuz I drive a 10sec car everyday....maybe you have penis envy....lol :shout:
The Camaro had a 4in Cowl hood retard :insane: DO LS1's come stock with a cowl hood? Moron. The LS1 was not a V6. :shuffle: It would have sounded like a stupid import with a gazzzoooo muffler. The race was on my compilation vid I posted a few months back on svtperformance.com
Did I fake the race with MidnightAssasin too?
I'm Predator03 on svtperformance.com and modular fords. Plus I'm 1FST4V on svtsnake.com The 1FST4V is due to the fact that I sent in for custom plates to be assigned with my Marine Coprs emblem. I guess I fake the USMC too huh?

So then why would you change your name to 1FST4V on this forum.
You have never sat in a BMW before let alone drive one. Wanna take on an M3 competition in a real race. Get real you drive and american piece of crap mustang with NOS!!!!!!!!! Wow, i can really see how much you beat that non SS by. God your such a frickin tool. Why would I want a car that looks like a mustang. A 5 cent hoe know that my car have more class then you ever will.

03-24-2005, 09:27 PM
Yeah, 3 is right. Unless you take something like a nicely modified Lingenfelter Corvette, or something like that, an M3 will smoke just about anything American in a real track race. Against a British track racer, probably ot, but just about anything American that costs within 100k of the M3's price will lose.

I never said you were "fake". I said you were fraudboy.
Posting up a vid of a Camaro whose year changes from post to post. Calling it an SS when at best it's a debadged Z28 and claiming it as a racing kill, when from the video it is obvious the guy wasn't even racing you.
You have gained a reputation in the SVT/Mustang forums as a fraud that only races cars with much less horsepower than yours.
Did you just decide to carry on your fraudulent reputation in another forum?

Hmm. I'm a Moron? But I'm not the one that doesn't even know how to identify if it's an SS or Z28 or even a V6. Besides and exhaust tone that you would never hear since you were reving him like a ricer, do you know how to identify a Camaro with a V6? How about a Camaro RS. Do you know if they have a V6 or V8 and what makes them an RS?
My guess is not without doing some internet surfing and looking it up. Since you had no idea that you were NOT "racing" :confused: a SS. Hell I can't believe you even thought you were racing at all. Now that is moronic.

Get real you drive and american piece of crap mustang with NOS!!!!!!!!!.. Typical mind set of a long nosed bmw driver.. this kind of ingorence doesn't suprise me at all.. in fact that's why I hate all bmw's and there dickless drivers.. they're always better then everyone else. there always above everyone else, they always feel they own the road and you have to yeild to them.. well that's what they think.

Im not here to rip on who drives what. To each his own. Whatever you like is fine. Personally I love my MR2.
Anyway, just because you drive up beside a guy honk your horn and then gun it doesnt mean he is racing you.
I dont care if it is your car or not, but a race is where 2 cars are lined up at a certain spot and when they are flagged to go they gun it. I could pull up along side a jet airplane thats parked, honk and gun it and say i beat a jet. No pride in that what so ever.
As long as you pull up beside someone and then gun it you have the fastest car in the world.
Nice ride tho.

hmmm. how do u mean boosted? i think we´ve had this same discussion many, many times before. i recognize the fact that your syclone (sp?) would smoke just aboot anything on the strip, but on a twisty, bendy track, i´m pretty sure the M3 would smoke u... how do i know this? since i´ve seen cars with x-times the horsepower of smaller cars with great handling be smoked... and not just a little bit, but smoked bad...
on a track where mere power is of great importance (long straights...) a syclone could do quite nicely, but on a slower bendy track, all that matters is handling.

Im sorry I didn't explain that further.. I didn't mean on a circuit. I ment on the street.
i think we´ve had this same discussion many, many times before..
We might very well have but I honestly don't remember.. all I remember is trying to explain it to a few people that just seemed to think it was a hick-mobile or something.
i recognize the fact that your syclone (sp?) would smoke just aboot anything on the strip, but on a twisty, bendy track, i´m pretty sure the M3 would smoke u... .
I thank you for spelling the name of the truck correctly I really do but at the trucks strong point is like you said at the strip but mostly on the street. Shorting the race the better chance of the truck winning. But don't forget that the syclone isn't just a normal pickup. I've taking plenty of corners alot harder then I've taken in my c4 corvette or any of my mustangs.. now Granted they are not an m3 but damn close enough. I've seen videos and know of people that have autocrossed there syclones with great results. I'd say alot would come down to the driver but it would be alot closer then you would think.
how do i know this? since i´ve seen cars with x-times the horsepower of smaller cars with great handling be smoked... and not just a little bit, but smoked bad....
True.. a 1000hp mustang isn't gonna out corner a 140hp pontiac fiero.. unless the 1000hp mustang was setup for cornering as well as striaght line. You can manke pretty much any vehicle corner.. all it takes it money.. some cars just require more money then others to get there which im sure you know already.
on a track where mere power is of great importance (long straights...) a syclone could do quite nicely, but on a slower bendy track, all that matters is handling.
True but i would figure the syclone would excell better on the shorter tracks.. since it's advantage isn't long straight burst but rather short ones.. see with syclones.. they are quick as balls but fall flate on the top end due to there shape (aerodynamics like a brick) and there AWD system.. besides there not geared for anything longer then an 1/8 or 1/4 mile run. So if it was my truck and me driving vs an m3 in a tight twisty track i'd put money on my truck just like if the driver in an 03 cobra can drive.. and runs a m3 from a stop on the street... im gonna put my money on the cobra no doubt.

You called me say hey man there's this guy on ebaum using your videos etc....
And I cut you off by saying, "hey dumba ass it's me. I'm the Cobra owner"
I made fun of you on the phone and called you "napoleon dynamite" because you sound like a slow thinking idiot.
The number you called was from modularfords.com registered under Predator03......so that means you CALLED ME.....1FST4V....the same person ass
I further made fun of you when you told me to calm down. Then I was laughing so hard as I asked you if you wanted me to mail my registration to your grandma for proof of ownership.
I ended the call by saying,"I'm gonna write about this on the internet and make fun of you for sure."

Any car can be rice, or have rice on it. It does NOT MATTER WHERE IT IS FROM. I have seen many high end Mercedes riced (slk55 amg, as an example), I have seen BMW's riced, I have seen just about any car riced up. So, no, there are indeed rice/riceable European cars, it is just less common to have "tuners" of that type over there, then here in America.
EDIT: By the way, by the official definition of rice which is mods that have no performance advantage, aka tinted windows or special headlights.....hmmm, oh! No rice on European cars? Wait, I just mentioned a mod you have and one you are trying to get! Damn! (There is rice that can perform, it is when a performance car has rice on it).

More or less. It's not "true" rice, but it's definitely around there. Buying it as an aftermarket thing is the real ricey part of it, as it does nothing, never. At least a spoiler will help somewhat, even if your car cannot reach the spoilers most effective speeds.

Meh, rice is all in the eyes of who is using the word. To me, my MR2 isnt riced out. I have an after market air dam and rear skirt. But I restored the car from the rust bucket it once was. Rice to me, is wanting to race everyone they see, pulling up beside them and calling them on.Actually thinking that cause you put on one of those big ass mufflers that it gives you 50HP. Thats rice.
I have seen some cars that are decked right out, vinyl and all that looked dam good. I personally dont like vinyl. Only thing on my car is the Toyota logo on the hood. To each his own. People do thing to their car mostly because they love their car. I paid $1000 for my car, dropped over 12 grand into restoring it since I have owned it. (body and drivetrain)
Its all about the car you like. In someone elses eyes your car looks shitty to them. I say just worry about your own car, I can appreciate the work and time and money spent to make a car look the way someone else wants it to look.

That is originally where it came from (Asia), but now it is just a word reffering to pretty much any mod on the car that does not have some performance use. Realistically however, just about everyone who mods the engine has some body mods that don't do shit, so people usually differentiate between "tasteful mods" and "shitty ass fucking piece of gay shit rice". Chances are 3's mods would fall into the "tasteful". What I was doing is using the official definition, of just any useless mods.

umm, no i dont think so. Minimum wage would not suddenly raise cause there were no hispanics working in america. And if it did raise, there would be half the number of jobs cause employers could not afford to hire any more. So anyway you put it food prices would not raise...
All this is kinda off topic so im gonna stop now.....
TheTechnician
03-27-2005, 02:42 AM
are you braindead? when did i say anything about minumum wage??? i think youve shoveled too many holes in the hot sun.
Here let me explain...these "spics" as you would call them enter the workforce. They are willing to do jobs that other people are not willing to do, and they are willing to do them at low wage. So flocks of these people come here to do these jobs. This means that employers can employ more people than they would normally, even if wage is not a factor.
More workers = more production.
More production = more supply
More supply = lower cost.
The US spends the least percentage of total wage on our food budget. I believe it is something like a 10% average of total income spent on food...which is astonishingly low compared to other countries. The reason? Our agricultural industry is not even close to being touched by any other country in the world...we have the most farmland by far, and we produce the most yield per acre than any other country in the world. We are the worlds leading food producer, and we produce the best quality food in the world.
So it has nothing to do with wage, it has to do with production. Which goes directly into the good ol' supply and demand equation. I knew all those world economics classes would come in handy some day while argueing with jackasses on the internet. :)

But the price would never go up.....If you took away all of the mexicans. The farms would have to hire americans and not hire as many. They would recive more money but have to work 10 times harder or they would be fired in a second. Is it a convinience....yeah, probably but by no streach do we need them. And i wouldn't call them "spiks" but i sure as hell would call you ignorant for even bring up the name......

To me "rice" is any mod that doesn't alter performance, but makes it seem as if your car is faster. IE: make it look faster with new bumpers, make it sound faster w/ a fart cannon, big rims to tame all that HP, etc.
Tint therefore wouldn't fall into my category of "rice" but others have looser definitions.
PS:
1) That was not even close to an SS. Just look at the wing.
2) While you're looking at the wing, look at the driver. He's looking at the camera guy laughing wondering why the guy's honking. And no, he didn't accelerate at all.
Nice car, sad video I'm afraid.

I dont think im a biggot at all. I made some statments that i could see offending people of hispanic decent, but not on purpose. So i apollogize to the hispanic people on the forum if I offended them. But i am not at all a racist.
I honesly dont look at a person and see color. I was riding in a car with two of my friends who both love rap. One black, one white. I said the N word not even thinking while listening to the lyrics of the song. Was it dumb on my part, yes. But it showes that i dont see color or use that word with the intent to hurt of harm. Its just a word to me, with out any bad meaning. It means alot to others though, so i try not to say it out of repect to others.
I never brought up racist terms in this forum. The racist terms were brought up by tech, and i called him on that. The statment i made i stand by, Its just my opinion, but i hope that it does not offend all of the members of the forum. Only 1STFU or what ever, cause he sucks at life.

Youre dumb.....we make the most food in the world BY FAR.....i didnt say we were the only country to grow food :wtf: .....and actually yes the food prices would rise if we didnt have the millions upon millions of cheap laborers in the country, thats just common fucking sense. And i have tolerence, just not for fucking idiots who know nothing about agriculture or the economy.
Have you even ever been on a farm??? Have you ever took an economics class??? Do you have family in the agriculture business??? Have you ever worked for an agricultural company??? No? Well i have and do...so yea dont tell me something that i know a lot about, because you will lose every time.
Its simple supply and demand....ever heard of it? You should have. Once again....
immigrant workers = bigger workforce in "unskilled" labor catagory
This means that there are more workers to do the harvesting of these crops.
More workers = greater production
greater production = greater supply
Large supply = less demand
less demand...oh shit what does that equal...fuck...fuck
Oh i know, lower prices!!!!!

Crapbucket=M3? Sorry, but NO! I am not exactly a huge BMW performance fan, but the M3 I like. Why? Look at it's track times. Your Mustang might be able to beat an M3 in outright acceleration, but on a real track, with curves? Keep dreaming about taking on an M3.
On Hockenheim, a track with so many straightaways:
1:16.3 --- BMW M3 (E46)
There is no Mustang on the list (Hockenheim is in Germany, if you couldn't tell), but it's competitors averaged 1:25
A nearly ten second lead? You have to be joking if you think your Mustang will win.
Considering your Mustang is modified, I will rate it the same as a Chrysler Crossfire/Mercedes C320. Even then, you would lose to the Crossfire......probably by 1 second, due to it's rather decent acceleration and similarly decent handling. This adds up to a stock BMW M3 still having a 5-6 second lead over you.

It's an actual acronym, not a racial slur. Though it's often used as a racial slur by uneducated morons. I have many hispanic friends that don't care if I throw the word "spic" around. They do it to. I have a lot of black friends who use the word "nigger" and in all fairness, I use it to. However, my definition does not pertain to a single race. I hate that all the good words got a bad rap and are now considered "racist"
Soon the word "cunt" is going to offend woman! oh wait...
Damnit, that's my favorite word!! Come to think of it, it was my ex-girlfriends favorite word too..
As far as 3SeriesSport vs. 1FST4V...I'd love to see that. I have a feeling 3Series would take that one actually. But in case he doesn't, you can tote your badass mustang over to my town and I'll race you in my crapbox. She may not be as pretty, but she packs a punch ;)

2) If you know how to drive a manuel right, it is faster then an automatic by a second usally in 0-60 times.
3) Most people would be slower with a manuel because of slow or missed shifts. Or they just plain suck at driving.
4) On a straight track, i would get killed. Curved course, i would win with out a doubt. You could throw the price of my car at a mustang and not be able to take me out on a curved course. Muscle cars are long and thin = Shitty handeling. German sports cars are short and wide = Great handeling and low under steer and/or over steer

His answer for everything seems to be a challenge for a race. Notice though, that he never challenges anyone with a car that might beat him.

Transmissions are a tricky thing. It's true that in most cases a manual will outperform an automatic based solely on the drivers control over the shift points. HOWEVER, a good racer knows how to adjust his automatic. The right torque converter, and shift kit will get the most out of your shifting, which cannot be replicated by a manual transmission. Especially with racing, manual transmissions leave a lot of room for human error.
I use an automatic tranny in my 85 stang because a) it's a city car...manual transmissions in this stop and go shit are a pain in the sack.
and b) When tuning my motor at the track, I don't have to factor in my shift points to zero in on my engine adjustments. It's about 1000 times easier with an auto tranny.
Also, when that first and second gear torque wraps my head against the headrest, I like to have both hands on the wheel ;)
Tech, I'm not saying the KB Cobra in the video won't beat 3Series, I'm just saying 1FST4V's car won't beat 3Series haha. I too don't believe that he owns that car. Without concrete proof. Who paid for it all? Who did the work on it? He doesn't seem to know enough to really own the ride. Maybe it's just me...
I bet I could build a go-kart to beat the pants off of both of them though! This snow blower place is going out of business and they said we could snag a couple 9 horse motors. Me and a buddy of mine at work had some nifty ideas for those motors. Twin briggs and stratton's on a 50 lb chassis :)

Oh god, my leg. My leg is broken. Someone call 911. I can't feel my leg.'
Man, that's gonna be a good time there.
EDIT:
i hate transmition, Its for lazy people :p
I hate transmissions too man. It's my firm belief that cars should only go in one direction, forward.
And the engine should spin the wheels directly. Screw all that stuff in the middle. Just slows the car down. I like that "turn the key and drive straight into a tree" idea. :lol:

I got a lot of attention cause of the bright color of it. Girls love a mustang haha. My girlfriend HATED it. Well, she went through her stages. When I brought it home she said it was nice...when I finally started it up she said it was really nice, when I took it for a spin and the ladies were like "ooo, I like your car" she hated it. When I built it up a bit and let her drive it, she loved it again. When I told her she can't drive it anymore because she can't stop burning up my rear tires she was angry. When she moved, and bought a Camaro I was angry. When her Camaro shit the bed because it was an absolute shitbox that she overpayed for, I was happy again. When I offered her my mustang, she was happy again. When I told her no fucking way she was angry again. When I went down and fixed her Camaro, we were both neutral. When I pulled out her 3.8 and put in a 5.7 she was happy, I was happy, and then she crashed it anyway.
Now she's a douchebag and I hope she dies behind the wheel of her Eagle Talon or whatever the fuck she's driving now.

NO I stated the fact that even though the corvette had aerodynamics, weight, and cubic inches over the cobra... the corvette still needed forced induction or intercooled supercharged power to beat the cobra.. it's kinda like putting your car up against a 95 ford escort.. yes you have the aerodynamics and cubic inches advantages but you go the extra step and add tint to destroy that escort in a race.

Nothing wrong with it.. I have it on my mustang, corvette and syclone.. the problem is with people that think it's a "mod" like it's netting them some extra performance or something. I don't know if that's what you intended in (im guessing not) but it was funny and something to bust your balls about so deal with it man it's all in good fun.

Ahh, someday when the wallet is full I'll start building a nice truck. I got too many car projects in the works to add another challenge right now :)
don't know man.. im really missing my supercharged lx... im almost traded a kid with a t76bb turbocharged 89 notchback with my truck last week but just couldn't bring myself to do it.. i have to rob, loot and steal to get another psi whoring stang in my driveway or im gonna crack!!!
yeah fast pickups are cool but horrible traction so racing is limited that's why i went with the syclone.. the awd is a dream and nothing on the street comes close.. at least so far.

Then stfu you don't know shit about the cobra then do you? it's all the same on here.. little bitches putting down cars that they never even fucking sat in let alone fucking driven!! yes you own a bmw.. does that give you a right to say hey you own an 03 cobra that'll shit all over my bmw.. hmm your car sucks and the crash rating is horrible as well.. so it's not worth dick.. well you never said those things but i could see you doing so.. so stfu and keep moding your windows and head lights.
what? I have proof of my vehicles, I don't say that people's cars suck dick wihtout them first saying something ignorent. I didn't post your phone number on the board.. etc..
why not? if that cobra sucks so much then your car must be better right? you must have something for that cobra owner's car then right? if not sit the fuck down and stfu.
I was saying that my car has less then 1/3 the hp than the cobra, not the vette. I was saying that my car would get killed in a straight line, but own the cobra in the curves, because of the basic design.
I also was not saying that you have no proof, ive seen pics of your cars on here before, i said that you were being unreasonable comparing my car with 170 hp to a modded cobra.
My car is better in certain ways and vice versa with the cobra. Im not gonna stfu, im the only one on this forum who does not seem to be a muscle car fanatic, so im gonna defend my position.

a BMW would probably not own a cobra on a track, just plainly due to the fact that it has over 2 times the hp. that makes quite a big difference... nevermind the bends, there´s road between them too...
but, i agree with 3series. the handling of the BMW is superior to the cobra, and if it would have more hp it could keep up.
but. handling isn´t EVERYTHING... it does make a very, very big difference, but still...
against an M3, on the otherhand... ;)

If you're going to compare a BMW to a cobra just make sure the cobra can stay at least 1000 ft behind the BMW. You guys can't just go around bitching about this and that without being specific.. "My cobra can beat up your BMW!" lol you guys rock and suck at the same time.. When you're going to compare vechicles make sure that the BRAND is WORSE than that ONE SINGLE CAR (a cobra) and not just say the cobra is better than one car made by BMW

ah well, theres nothing I can say about that but.. he does have some good points I mean after all the cobra needs a S/C to be badass.. and then you have a corvette Z06 which has more without a S/C.. I mean don't get me wrong the cobra is a sweet ass car it's just what that dude said in the video.. he has one hell of an ego but one day he is going to come across a badass camaro with 800hp and its going to kill his car and that ego of his. I mean he does have a sweet car but that ego kills it.

Alright, to end this, "my car" would prob get beaten on both track and drag strip because of lack of horse power. But that does not change that fact that german cars would destroy a cobra in taking a turn and all around its a much more solid car, and give it enough hp, on both a drag strip and a track. The cobra is great at going in a straight line, but you cant comapre it to something like an M3 or a S4
Drag = E55 (stock) vs Heavily modded cobra (posted by boostedpimp not long ago)
Track = Its just common sence

Why does everyone think American sports cars only go in straight lines. I've out driven a mercedes kompressor on the highway before (It wasn't the safest thing to be doing in traffic, but I drive fast in and out of lanes regardless of who's trying to outdo me)
You'd be surprised how much better your car can handle with a strut tower brace, new control arms and shocks/springs, and subframe connectors. Mine is as solid as a rock, and handles great. I'd have no problem taking it to the track and putting it up against a BMW. Even if I hesitate on the turns a little more, I'd smoke in the straightaways anyway.
And for the record, believe it or not, I can drift just fine in my muscle car ;) I know, I know, I know, it's unheard of, but it's true. :thud:

Why shouldn't anyone believe that? In professional drifting "races", the Viper team may be kicked out because it wins just that damn much. And the GTO is usually what wins if the Viper doesn't :D

I dont think that they absolutly suck, but they are not very close to a german car just because of the long and thin muscle car design. But they are not that, or they have gotten alot better. My uncle has an 02 Camero SS and a Pontica GXP. The camero was very capable and fast as balls. But when we were race a guy in a 540i through the ravines of PA. We got destroyed.

no im defending the cobra...i know my car is slow, but i dont go around saying it will beat cars that are faster and handle better like you obviously are... A cobra is bred to race, your car is bred to haul yuppies.
Who said the 05 Mustang engine is german and the trans is French????
And what exactly would that prove anyway(if it were true)????

Crapbucket=M3? Sorry, but NO! I am not exactly a huge BMW performance fan, but the M3 I like. Why? Look at it's track times. Your Mustang might be able to beat an M3 in outright acceleration, but on a real track, with curves? Keep dreaming about taking on an M3.
On Hockenheim, a track with so many straightaways:
1:16.3 --- BMW M3 (E46)
There is no Mustang on the list (Hockenheim is in Germany, if you couldn't tell), but it's competitors averaged 1:25
A nearly ten second lead? You have to be joking if you think your Mustang will win.
Considering your Mustang is modified, I will rate it the same as a Chrysler Crossfire/Mercedes C320. Even then, you would lose to the Crossfire......probably by 1 second, due to it's rather decent acceleration and similarly decent handling. This adds up to a stock BMW M3 still having a 5-6 second lead over you.
Ok.....I didn't really make it that obvious, sorry about that, but about all that rice stuff, I was mostly joking.
You were not alone from the start.......that first quote is from the 5th page. As for the rice, I guess you never saw me say I was joking.
EDIT: Too make the track part clear, the M3 will get killed by a Cobra on a track like Hockenheim, which is mostly straights. But on a track like Nurbergring (however you spell that....) the Viper Which is alot faster, and handles better then a Cobra, comes a few hudnreths of a second behind the M3. So on a curvy track, the M3 will win. On a straighter track, the Cobra will most likely win.

I donno bout hockenheim, the M3 is not a slow car. 0-60 in either 4.8 or 4.8, cant remember. Not as fast as the cobra prob, but able to compeat all the same. And the M3 is meant for running at high speeds on the autobaun. So if the straights were long enough, the M3 might have an advantage.
But it dosnt matter. Both cars have there advantages, and we could talk shit all year. But im tired of this. Thanks for ending this you guys.

The M3 would win at Hockenheim. Unless a Cobra can beat a Viper.........
It would not be a huge win though, but it would be relatively significant. On Nurbergring, the M3 would rape the Cobra, castrate it, and make it suck on it's castrated nuts while it kept raping it.

You guys are right I myself dont even believe the car was racing.
It seems like that has been established. But lets think for a moment
even if they where to actually race it would most likely be that bad.
I mean the 2003 cobra svt has 395 hp think about that it has a 4.5 0-60time
and the ss has like a 5.3 there is clearly no competition there.
I am pretty sure that the ss has a quarter mile time of 13.7
But I AM sure that the cobra svt has a quarter mile time of 12.9
that right there is clearly the ss getting it handed to him.

get you'r stats right here...
2003 SVT Cobra:
0-60_4.8 seconds
1/4mile time_13.9
(98-03?) Camaro SS:
0-60_5.0 seconds
1/4mile time_13.5
conclusion, no it it not a clear win....
so no the SS could not get it "handed to him" actually if they bothed raced stock the SS would begin to pull away after a little under the 1/8th mile mark, not by a lot but a noticable amount, and it all depends on auto or manual shift points, did both drivers shirt at the same notations in rpm's to the gears? there are way to many factors to count to decide who would win based on stats online, you would need to see them go at it in person
Now as to not confuse people, not i do like the SVT cobra, somewhat, yes a do like the SS, somewhat, i have no opinion to biase myself in this topic

I have run a '03 and a '04 Cobra in my SS. Once was on the strip (great guy driving the '04) and he had done a few mods. Don't ask me what they all were. This was early last year and all I can remember for sure was a pulley change. With my mods I pulled him pretty good. He put down a 11.8X to my 11.2X. But that is after I had put 20K plus into engine and suspension mods.
Even with the mods I've done I'm only putting down 437rwhp. But with the suspension adds and Mickey ET's she does quite well.
The other time was on the street and with Nitto 555 Extreme II's on. I never got a chance to talk to that guy, just the wave and smile thing. He hung with me really well and even pulled me out of the hole. I gathered him up by the end of second gear and pulled about a half car length through third and fourth.
Once I get the stroker kit in and maybe change the gears to 4.11's I would really like to run a Kenne Bell Cobra.
Being a pretty staunch bow tie kind of person, I have always bought into the Chevy vs. Ford thing. In fact I had a license plate bracket made for when I auto crossed the SS. It read: Camaro SS THE Cobra killer. It was true at the time. Now it's a misnomer though. Stock for stock a '03-'04 Cobra will destroy a SS.
I gotta take my hat off to Ford on these Cobras. They are wicked quick and if GM doesn’t get off the stick and build a new Camaro soon, I will be selling my ’00 to get the new Shelby GT500. Hell, it’s time to do a F/I car now that my SS project is about to meet all my goals for it.

The car may be longer, but your wheelbase is about a half an inch shorter if my memory serves me. However, since your car is shorter, your engine is further back, which gives you better handling since it's almost behind the front wheels.

On the track the SS should take the srt4. While the srt4 is quick, it's still not up there with the Camaros. Oh! And actually the Z28 is a better quarter mile car than the SS. Several reasons for this. If you really want to know why the Z28 is quicker ask and I'll type out a long explination.

The 98-02 Z28 has exactly the same motor as the SS. The only differences are as follows:
The SS has 17" wheels with lower profile tires. The Z28 sits on 245/50-16 tires while the SS sits on 275/40-17. While the larger contact patch may seem to favor the SS it does not make up for what is needed most for a good ET... Sidewall flex on a 50 vs. a 40 series is enough to garner much better launches and thus better 60' times. Not to mention the tire/wheel combination on the SS adds weight to the car.
While the SS claims (in 2002) to produce 25 additional horsepower with an optional airbox lid and exhaust, dynos have shown that gap is more like 10-15 horsepower with it only putting down 8-10 more rwhp. The way that SLP garners additional ponies is to add what is the equivalent of a cold air intake (some call it a ram air type system but it's been proven not to give an actual ram air effect). Again the hood with the added ductwork for the scoop and the scoop itself adds more pounds to the SS. The only other difference is the exhaust system. It is no where near as efficient as aftermarket cat backs and you know how much power those add... In fact if you go for the optional center mounted exhaust you gain more weight from the additional plumbing and the weight added by the rear facia.
The SS has a larger sway bar than the Z28, adding yet more weight and not helping the ET in the least.
The SS has a taller rear spoiler which, once again, adds weight and offers no quarter mile improvements.
With all the stuff added to the SS the curb weight is 3554 lbs while the Z28 weighs in at 3439 lbs. 115 pounds might not seem like a lot but the added weight combined with the lower profile tires makes the SS harder to get a good hole shot with.
The Z28 was rated (or should I say under rated) at 310hp and the SS rated at 335hp with the optional intake/exhaust.
Truth of the matter is this. The LS1 produces very, very close to the same horsepower in all the different cars it was put into. The Z28 actually has closer to the same bph as the Vette than GM advertised. They didn't want to alienate Vette buyers by saying a $25,000 car had the same (or close to the same) horsepower as their $45,000 flagship. So the Camaro got under rated. The dynos back me up on this.

I had a very good feeling it was weight, iwth all the optionals on the SS, it really weighed it down, i mean i do see their point in doing all of those optional changes, but it really didn't effect them, most people these days buy a car by looks, as long as it has decent bhp, it has to look good though, so the SS was their car for that job, people want larger wheels more things in the engine that may not help their acceleration in the least, but the sway bars really could help it on track so i think that was a healthy decision, the rear spoiler of the SS could have used to have been angled to create more downforce (thus putting more pressure on the back tires aswell as giving the car more handling) the wheels were no question, personally i have always hated the SS wheels, for some reason i like the RS ones, they just look nicer.
I really do think, while the SS has it's downs that really never made it a superior drag car to the Z-28 it's optional equiptment was aimed to more of a road friendly drive, with a better feel of the road and a more refined sense of state
byu you know... either way great post, thank you for typing that up

wow!...thats the same weight distribution as the new mustang GT......
Have you seen the 2k5 GT-R concept mustang? That's gonna be my new girlfriend someday. That has I think a 50/50 weight distribution. Awesome car. 440 horsepower.
Major sex appeal.
But that's really just an all out race car. Can't really go comparing it to street cars. It's far too sexy.

different cars have different gears
highway gears
1/4 gears
a real race starts off at 0 mph side by side
for example: 3.23 gears are in my buddys roadrunner
3.91's in mine...if i see him on the highway like that....he would kick my ass
but from 0 mph i would blow him away

I used to have 4.20's in my old 7.5 rear end on the stang. Gave me a lot of wheel hop. Couldn't drive on the highway because after about 3 miles my rear end would be whining and my top end would be gone.
swapped back to the factory 3.23's and when I swap a new detroit locker on the rear end I will be putting in 4.10's. Then, and only then, it will be a track only car.
I Could always go with a 3.73 gear. Decent for getting out of the hole, and mild on the street. We'll see what happens I guess.

Sorry for the time it took me to say thank you i really appreciaite the answer man. I just got really busy. Also i have a question to anyone who thinks they have a answer. Lately my car has been making a squeking noise coming from the rear end. I Have no clue as to what it could be. It usally only happens when ive been driving awhile. Its not a noise the shocks or joints would make and it doenst make the noise any louder when i go over a bump.It also sometimes happens when im taking off. I bought the car with 103000 miles on it now it has 110000 miles on it. To be honest it's done it since i had the car.When i got it had a cowl induction hood. So im wondering could there be like rear gears or something back there i dont know about? I really dont know?

I saw a 4 cylinder stang do a wheelie with 7.50something diesel truck gears in the rear end. I thought that was pretty neat.

ah well, theres nothing I can say about that but.. he does have some good points I mean after all the cobra needs a S/C to be badass.. and then you have a corvette Z06 which has more without a S/C.. I mean don't get me wrong the cobra is a sweet ass car it's just what that dude said in the video.. he has one hell of an ego but one day he is going to come across a badass camaro with 800hp and its going to kill his car and that ego of his. I mean he does have a sweet car but that ego kills it.
wtf does that have to do with the price of rice in china? anybody can say that but the bottom line here if you want to be real about this arguement.. it all comes down to what prick has the most money.. period... what you just said is basically that you choose to put down the cobra simply because one owner is proud of his ride and well is a hand job but that's no reason to say cobras are junk in the turns or striaghts or wtf else cauz im sure if someone gave you one.. you wouldn't fucking say oh this is shit and push it out of your way so stfu with that noise already and be real.
Alright, to end this, "my car" would prob get beaten on both track and drag strip because of lack of horse power. But that does not change that fact that german cars would destroy a cobra in taking a turn and all around its a much more solid car, and give it enough hp, on both a drag strip and a track. The cobra is great at going in a straight line, but you cant comapre it to something like an M3 or a S4
how could you say that the cobar would be destroyed in the corners by any german car? you've never fucking stepped foot in a cobra in the twisties im sure.. they have irs and such.. they handle exceptional for what they are.. they can hold there own any none basis person could see that and acknowledge it... but you do own a modded bmw.. :lol:
Drag = E55 (stock) vs Heavily modded cobra (posted by boostedpimp not long ago)
YES I DID post that video.. it's a great video.. the fact that the e55 was stock isn't true. I've even told you this in a different thread or this one I don't remember.. but that merc is owned by a little latin speed shope owner
by the name of jesus and that car isn't stock.. it had a few decent modd that he wouldn't disclose at the time so please stop your stupid talk.. own a car with balls then talk like you have a pair.
Track = Its just common senceDon't lecture anybody on common sense kid..

Heh, yeah. i´m pretty sure my other car, a mighty opel kadett 1.3 wouldn´t destroy a cobra in the bends. but on the strip? well, nah, probably not. :rolleyes: (i think it has ~40 working horses... when it decides to run...)
but to be honest, it has to have decent handling to deliver all that power to the ground (the cobra, that is, not the kadett...), and to not be the most lethal car in the world. i mean, come on, it has a lot of power, and it simply has to handle to not kill everyone...
maybe not like an M3, but still... :D

WOW where to start! :rolleyes: First of all when I put that post there was NO discussion of "rice" anywhere! :insane: and .. I put down the cobra when.. IF IM NOT MISTAKEN did I not SAY "Dont get me wrong the cobra is a badass car" ???????? :wtf: AND again.. this jackass is over here acting all big and bad, all I said is that one day hes going to get whats comming. Do you think he has the best car in the world? I bet you do! Oh wow guys I bet his cobra is the fastest car in the world! omgzzss!@!@!!!11!
Oh and buddy, nobody is "giving" me a cobra so I dont have to worry about it. I could buy one if I wanted but I think they ride like shit because they do. Think more of working and saving my whole life to buy a 01+ corvette
Then bitch about it..

Im not here to rip on who drives what. To each his own. Whatever you like is fine. Personally I love my MR2.
Anyway, just because you drive up beside a guy honk your horn and then gun it doesnt mean he is racing you.
I dont care if it is your car or not, but a race is where 2 cars are lined up at a certain spot and when they are flagged to go they gun it. I could pull up along side a jet airplane thats parked, honk and gun it and say i beat a jet. No pride in that what so ever.
As long as you pull up beside someone and then gun it you have the fastest car in the world.
Nice ride tho.
I know it's a somewhat oldish post...but either R&T or MT did a 1/4 mile against an F16 I believe, with a 'Vette, and beat it. Of course, after about a mile or so the F16 would be out of sight within seconds :D.

i think it was just a stock viper. I remember seeing that on tv. The viper ended up winning by like 1 tenth of a second. After that the F16 just walked away like nothing.

He had the F-16 in the quarter, but just barely lost in the full mile. The driver was the guy who actually designed the dodge viper. Pretty neat race.

i'm pretty sure it's in the 600bhp ballpark, mabey 575, not much different engine wise from the regular viper but the suspension, brakes, ecu, ect. are dramaticly changed

Oh, so not too different really. So.....let's assume it has a 10-10.5 second 1/4 mile then (probably in that range, but it may not be......just assume.). Even if it is a 10 second 1/4 mile, the Venom would still have a 2 second lead over it. Holy crap that is FAST! :eek:
