1slow346 Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 I posted a few pictures of my Terminator, and a couple people mentioned wanting to see my Grey Cobra, so I figured I'd post a few pictures of it that I took today. Please ignore the mile long RC Car antenna. Yes I will be cutting it down tomorrow, yes I will miss getting radio stations from other planets. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7018/6392409781_a4fe229265_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7163/6392537075_46c27c8f94_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7003/6392411427_60a586b705_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7019/6392414319_9b7571eb8d_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7152/6392417581_6d26ba4aec_b.jpg http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7161/6392415927_952700a1d9_b.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustlestiltskin Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 I hope either one of your cobras have seen the track knowing their back tires are 5 ft. wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1slow346 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 I hope either one of your cobras have seen the track knowing their back tires are 5 ft. wide. Lmfao, I love that something has to run a certain ET to have a certain wheel or tire on it, cracks me up. That's like saying I hope that thing runs 9s if it doesn't have any catalyst converters in the exhaust. Or when peoples opinions on a physical appearance change based on numbers..like ew that hood looks horrible if it runs 11s, but if it runs 9s it looks badass! Sounds retarded.. But yes, though I do have a purpose built racecar (Camaro) both of my street cars (Cobras) have seen the track as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Alex- Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Perfect stance, spotless, makes me want to get back into a Terminator badly. So much for getting a "cheaper" toy next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What have the 03/04 and 01 cobra run at the track with those pontoon boat tires on back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1slow346 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 What have the 03/04 and 01 cobra run at the track with those pontoon boat tires on back? They're both pretty stock. The 04 has a MAC Catback and K&N filter clamped onto the stock piping. Never ran it with the super swapmpers, but on et drags it's been 11.77 @ 116.1 The grey car is NA and has 4.10s and a UPR x pipe. Stock catback, stock intake piping as well, and on the same tires in the pictures (the GINORMOUS 315/35/17 every day driver tires) it went 13.01 @ 107 spinning to a 1.8 sixty. I guess in your opinion, which doesn't matter since they're not your Cobras to worry about, this is a much more appealing look. http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_images/2/3765/4581/21912290004_large.jpg?modal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustlestiltskin Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 As long as they run good 1/4's. Go with whatever wide tires you got. Just dont put 6ft. wide tires on a car that runs 13's (your 01 wink wink). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just dont put 6ft. wide tires on a car that runs 13's (your 01 wink wink). Lol, that's exactly what I mean. The "it looks great if it's fast but looks gay if it's slow" mentality. The static physical appearance of it isn't going to change whether it runs 10s or 13s, so why would the opinion of how something looks change in your head based on that? Who gives a fuck if it runs 13s or not, it's a cruiser. That was the stance I was going for with the car and I achieved it. If you don't like it, I won't lose any sleep over it, because I'm happy with what I have in my garage. I personally think your knock off CCW wannabe wheels on your GTO look like ass, but I wasn't going to come into a thread you posted about it, giving you my negative feedback. But hey, maybe if it ran 9s they wouldn't look so bad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, maybe if it ran 9s they wouldn't look so bad Knockoff ccws on the gto? LOL they are black ADR's. No ccw knockoffs. I had silver ccw's before cholo. Might as well put some indiglows under your car to go with those 10ft wide useless tires you got. But hey, you are trying to make your car look hard right? So who cares. lol........ brb. buying widest tire my car can fit out the rear and rolling with it. car runs stock times. Whats even funnier is I had a 01 black cobra that had a some shit done to it and I didn't run some banana boat tire out back like your corny ass and ran faster then 13's. GL on you future pontoon tire stock running 1/4 times in 2012 PS. static physical appearence is gonna change if I ever see you out on the street in your cobra with 7ft wide tires on it and it stalls from a 40 roll hit.

1slow346 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Line your cobras up with the 395series tires on them If a race is what you're after, I'll give you one, I have no problem with that. You can have a lane with my Camaro at the first NO ET in the spring. Just going to warn you though, it's on a 28x10.5 which I'm sure you would consider a pro stock tire.

nurkvinny Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Ha. I love the wide tire discussions. I run 31x18.5's and as it sits, would only run a 13 off the juice. When the truck was built, it had a 305, highway gears, and I still loved how it looks. But then again, I did the unthinkable and put staggered tires on a lot of 4 banger S10s too. Carry on, all your cars look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
