I was out for a nice Sunday Cruise and what do i find is some kid and his buddy in a new cobra telling me nice bike and that his cobra will take any bike. So I said thats nice. And don't bother. Next light him and his little buddy really want to play so I let him have it. Light changed let him get the jump and then peace:)not once but 3 times it took. Then the idoit follows me onto the parkway wants to go again let him jump again next thing i knew i was in 6th at 14k heheheheh:)

Some people i wonder about:D[:p][}:)]

That happened to me with some piece of shit car at night. So I just stayed in 1st and motioned with my left hand to "hurry up!"
Than one of my friends thought that my 600 couldn't beat a cruiser. The bike had 1800cc but who gives a shit. I wanted to hit him for being that stupid. To bad I carpooled with them, I would have gladly demonstrated how wrong and dumb he was.

Hahahhhahaha good story.

What kills me is ya beat them twice and all of a sudden they think maybe the third time they'll win.

I had a guy in a Ford Escort try that. A fuggin Ford Escort for petes sake. People are just stoooopid.

Speaking of cruisers. Where I shoot pool this guy has a custom cruiser with a 2200cc engine. That fuggin bike shakes like you woulldn't believe. Anyway, he wants to race me and says his bike can take mine. Oh, his bike redlines around 5,500 RPM. Plus the guy weighs like 320 lbs. He said the front tire always comes up on him. Also this guy awlays shows up with a brain bucket helmet, no gloves and half the time he has sandals on.

I really don't race people who try to coerce a race w/ statment like that dude made to you. Nobody who 'knows' would make that claim. Chances are that guy is a menace behind the wheel. I'd just as soon say "Really? Cool!" then let him go on his way.

With that much in the can, I would hope the front comes up at least a little. The rear tire probably looks like a 30 series with him sitting down. [^]

But then again, if a person is a menace and tries to coerce you into racing, maybe the best thing to do is just leave his ass so he isn't near you when he pushes it too far and possibly hits you or forces you off the road and into an accident.

Any 96-Up Cobra is a hell of a car, DOHC 4.6 Liter, Larger brakes, Better Handling, Its hands down one of the Best Bangs for the Buck when you consider Performance cars...

Ohh and the 03' and up cobra, That car is fucking awesome with almost 400 hp on tap and looks to die for! Dont forget about the factory Forged rods and pistons and also the Factory aluminum Flywheel!

Eric :p

The 03 Cobras and up are bad when compared to other sports cars in the price range, it will smoke an ls1 all day long, it runs low 12s off of the show room floor, but when compared to a sportbike well we all know you can't compare a 3500lb car to a 380lb bike but you do have these idiots who think their ride is that fast.
