    03 Cobra vs Civic hatch... "outlook not so good"

    the other week i managed to run into the "big dog" Civic in my area. we've been trying to get together for a few weeks and never seem to work it out. ALL of the local import guys wanted me to line up with this car, as he is the only one they say had a chance against the Cobra. looking at the...

    Evo out hunting... killed by Cobra

    windows down, enjoying the beautiful weather, minding my own business. suddenly, like a stalking ninja, this silver Evo X appears out of nowhere! we're in a fair amount of traffic when he manages to merge in just ahead of me. almost immediately he gives it a short stab, i'm guessing to see if...

    Cobro > G8 GT

    sitting at a light on saturday evening i see a red G8 pull out of a side street and start down the road in the direction i was headed. G8 GT driver must have noticed the "Mustang" at the light and clearly took his time and waited for me. not wanting to disappoint my fellow motorist, i made...

    5th gen SS can't outrun ugly... or a Cobra

    running errands in the Cobra on my day off... what could be better? KILLING a Camaro, that's what!!! catching a light behind the silver SS didn't really bother me as the local 'maro guys don't seem to be game for spirited driving sessions. as we turn onto the next street the unlikely happens...

    thanks to my Jeep doing what Jeeps do best, i had to drive the Cobra to work this morning. Ford saves the day again. (side note: Cobra runs like a mother in sub 10* weather) after the cold weather mechanical issues i decided to grab some hot chow on the way to work. hitting a BK i'm familiar...
