Coming back from a friends house in Pasadena, so I hit the 210 East and first thing I see is a clean white 03/04 Cobra up ahead in the fast lane. I catch up and do a modest pass to see if he's interested. He swings behind me and follows- the fun is ON.
There are small breaks in traffic where we're able to have a few seconds of quick fun. First thing I notice is the white Cobra is pretty quick. He'd pull on me hard during his bursts. Hard enough that I first thought he had a KB. He'd put 1-2 cars on me 2 seconds.
Traffic finally clears and we both hit the 605 south in LA. Traffic there is very light and it's a 5 lane freeway so we're able to play a little more for extended runs and I notice something odd- We'd hit it about the same time and he'd put 1-2 cars on me quick, but then as I wound out 4th from (about 70-80 mph on up), i'd catch him in about 3-4 seconds and it seemed the faster we went the harder *I* pulled away from *him*. Even if I got the jump by a car, he'd at least make that up before it evened out.
If you didn't know what either one had it would have looked like I was running a Vortech and him an Eaton. Anyone speculate why? I'm guessing the white Cobra had gears ;-)
