Well, as my sig states, I own a 98 Cobra. I let my brother borrow it the other night. I ended up meeting him at a bar later that evening. I asked if he knew how to drive it yet? He says "I'm getting there". After we closed the bar, we got to the parking lot, of course I was S--T tralking about his driving skill.
Cobra-
shifter
4:30's
31 spline mosers and Auburn
Centerforce Clutch
Bassani exhaust
125 stage II nos (empty bottle)

Lightning-
stock

I left a nasty holeshot in the parking lot, the place was filled with smoke!
My brother proceded to follow me out onto the road. I stopped, he pulled up next to me.

I told him not to be nervous, it's just big brother! He claimed he wasn't nervous.

Both engines were reving, he said he dumped the clutch at about 6700 rpm!!

We launched, I pulled on him through 2nd gear, the Cobra hit the rev limiter on each of his shifts (need to teach that boy), but the car is strong... very strong. In fact, my younger brother handed me my a$$... I was very happy he did! Sound strange? Maybe...

I congratulated him on his victory, he told me to get the L in the garage and get to work. Cocky little ******* !

It made me proud and sad at the same time. So what was the phone number to Jonny Lightning Performance?????

He launched at 6700?!?!?! I had a 97 Cobra before this and couldn't grip at 4K, let alone 6700. What tires are you running?
In a similar story, I was beat in my 95 Lightning while driving my buddies Chevy. Felt really good too!

6700????? sure..... I dont think the rev limiter would let you do that... but anyway.. that doesnt bother me as much as you and your brother doing that after being at a bar..... when you are drinking, leave your toys at home...

Mike, dont worry, my wifes 97 cobra will hand my L its ass too!
 
I thought the new cobra's redlined at 7000RPM? so 6700 would be possible if I remember that right but I agree with JJ drinking and driving seems to not hurt the driver as much as it hurts the people they hit, and I dont want to be the person hit.
 
The fuel shut off on a 98 Cobra is 6800 and some change. Thats why he was hitting the rev limiter

One last thing, i'm a diabetic, so I do not drink, as far as my brother, he is the bartender, he can't drink (at work).

Hehe, I kinda got that your bro wasn't drinking when you said you closed the bar. i figured he was the owner or bartender.

Good race, and good kill. hehe.

Damn JJ, didnt your parents tell you that if you dont have nothing to say nice, dont say it at all? The guy is talking about racing his brother, not drinking and driving. You always try to bring out the bad stuff in any situation. Just wish you would cut it out. I, as well as alot of other L owners, just wish that you would post a reply to a topic, not try to cut every response down...

just my 02.
Just clearing my chest...
