No, sir. It was definitely Supercharged as already posted. he had the 32 Valve Mod-motor in it.

I got to race both the GT and the Cobra/SVT - like that was going to be fair?

The guy in the GT never came out of 2nd gear. Not so sure about the Cobra though.

It's been over a month since I've been out there I believe, and it seems to be going the right way with the tardiness on the mic being toned down to acceptable levels. Hopefully the turnout will start upping now.

Oh shit, son. A 99/01 Cobra with the 32 valve?

I was just curious about the forced induction because I heard the car between every shift. I knew it had to be turboed or Procharged. Must've been his first time, because he was definitely timid around the turns.

Thought I saw your car there tonight? I know I saw Dave.
Let me know if you're going out there, I'm back in the 757 again.

That was a good time last night!! The walls are still scary as hell, but I am getting more comfortable with them.

The one on one competition was great and the 1.5 car stagger at the start made it a little more fair. The Subbies are tough out there. The blue one gave me a run for the money and the silver one handed me my ass. I think I could hang with them from a rolling start, but from a standing start, I have no chance.

I need another night or two of practice, I think the Miata can get well into the 18s in the time trial. I just need to tighten the loose nut behind the wheel.

By the way, who is this Sean guy?

Later,
Shawn

Was it like a gray or silver color? Do you know what the plates said? I think that guy works on base with me if it is.
