ok, it wasn’t a cobra, but driving down XXX with a friend of mine, i spot a black 2003 mustang with some racing stripe and lots of italian stickers… I figure he will be down to play, and after chasing him down a little bit, finally get up to him and get a good look at the car… he had put on cobra badges… but it was just a GT.

i pull up on the left and he’s on the phone but I look at his girl…  
me: “Is it a Cobra?”  
she asks her boyfriend and he nods, so she says “yea”  
me: “no its not, wanna race?”

by this point he is off the phone and we are stopped at a light with cars in front of us

him: “its not a cobra, but its souped up… upper and lower intake manifolds” :bloated:  
me: “okkkk”

so anyways we decide to go from a slow roll so i downshift to 2nd… 3 beeps and we are off… by the 2-3 im at at least a car and half, i didn’t even need to rev out 3rd and he was already 4+ cars back- we are about to come up to a light so i decide just to shutdown without going to 4th

he eventually catches up, gives the :tup: says “nice ride”, i grant him the same gestures and we go on our merry way

**cliffs** : evo pulls a ‘modded’ and ‘badged’ GT, good guy … hot chick ( i think she wanted a ride in the recaros )
