Well I never voted, as I had no clue what the real story was.
The one post that stuck out in my mind was Keith Craft kinda of surprised that most didn't give the Cobra a chance.

Blitzforce,
Where's your buddy Tom G in all this?
There's no shame in losing to you & your Kirkham.
Best wishes,

Top notch video! Cannot wait for the full length edition...
I saw that this and the other youtube video labeled it a race between the Ferrari and a SHELBY Cobra...
Come on, give some of the credit where it's due. Really a Kirkham Cobra. They produce such an exquisite product that makes that race possible and survivable.
Glad you both kept it staight and upright and really happy with the outcome.
Great run Dan!

Did the money change hands? 
After all, this was a BET, wasn't it?
Am I alone on this?

I wonder if they used the sanitary method of a wire transfer or do you think Tommy filled up a briefcase and gave him all $100 bills. |

As Peggy Bundy said to Al, "What are you going to do with all that money? Go to the nudie bar 400,000 times?"
"No, Peg. Just one great one!"

Folks, I'm going to be taking off the sticky on these two threads in a few days, so if anyone wants to post pics or comments or copy down the video links...now would be a good time.

Its obvious the majority of you on here are n00bs to dragracing (which is expected since Cobras are NOT drag cars). Posted Magazine times mean nothing when there is money on the line. Horsepower is useless unless your car is setup to use it efficiently, and most important of all......To be a good drag racer, you must also be a good Hustler!
Hopefully Tom learned to never underestimate his opponent. Sometimes, The fastest cars are the ones that appear to be the slowest
The real reason Iam posting in this thread is because I have been following it since early on and would like to congratulate Dan on a win that after speaking with him, I knew from the beginning he would take with ease. His team's hard work paid off...
Congrats and Long Live American Muscle!

It's obvious that that you are a presumptuous FNG who, with his first post, has decided to sum up what he thinks the collective experience of thousands of members here is. Actually, more than a few experienced drag racing Cobra owners have been a part of this thread.
It's Saturday morning, and your post touched a nerve in me before I've had my second cup of coffee after a late evening of very nice sipping taquilla...
Have a day off and consider what your second post will be about...hopefully it won't be your last
Good morning.

No sh...er...kidding. I've never been much of a drinker...I used to snort taquilla (thanks to Blackjack and the Preacher at early Flings...got a picture of Brent in mid-snort, another victim of the dynamic duo), but I ain't no professional.
Went to a local Hispanic chamber's banquet...not your typical chamber function.

With Jay being a Texas boy,I'm surprised he didn't bring some Tequilla with him instead of that low octane Taquilla.  |
