Default 9 second street car, gear bangin grudge race: 99 Camaro SS vs 96 Cobra

Last thursday me and one of the quicker local street cars finally lined up at the track (ls2bait on most forums).
His SS:
416 ls3
TFS heads
T56
200 shot
28" slicks
746 RWHP/ 783 RWTQ
pretty much a full weight show car ( been in GMHTP and Super Chevy)
best pass 9.86@142 (10.01 was his best this night before our race)

My 96
Terminator swapped (stock longblock)
KB2.8h @ 25psi
T56
28" slicks
677rwhp/643rwtq
Not quite full weight and DEFINATELY not a show car
Best pass has been 9.74@142 (10.01 was also my best this night so far)

All in all we are pretty evenly matched up and it has been a long anticipated race. There has been minimal smack talk, just sonme good fun. I'm pretty sure there is some pretty good mutual respect here


It was a VERY close race up until about the 1/8th, and..............I'll let the vids tell the story

The first one is Not safe for work due to the language in the music:
YouTube - MPE331lx vs LS2bait

This was obvious that this vid came from his crew:dw: :
YouTube - ls2bait vs. mpe331lx

And another one from down in the stands a little further:
YouTube - Tommy vs Phil

I almost dropped a duece in my pants right there on the spot!

He takes the win with a 9.95:thumbsup:

There should be a rematch coming up sometime in the fall (probably at an N2S DH event!)

Seems like that spot in the track gives alot of people problems. I ran there a few months ago and at about that same spot my car went a bit sideways and scared the shit out of me.

LOL!

I'm pretty sure my slip and slide was because the car pushed some coolant out of the cap. I thought I lifted a head, but it was just a shit coolant surge cap
