he ran an 11.24 and the terminator ran an 11.01. how's this for $40k against $110k. he was pushing 575 rwhp and 640lb ft of torque. so much for your luxurious grocery getter!
"The Terminator".....baw haaa haaaaa...

What an idiot. Why don't we let his ole lady, Bessie-Sue, chose as to which car she'd rather go to Wal-Mart in, the next time she buys clothes.......idiots.

the 03-04 cobra's were nicknamed the "terminator" from the factory...it's not some gay fantasy. lol Terminator is actually printed on a few body panels.

Wow, that's one of those stories where you SWEAR you were there but then you read it and you're not so sure you really were there after all. Looks like it's time to respond.

Derek, that is an awesome post man. Not only did you give the real low down of what happend but you put that dude in his place. Where the world do some people like that get an attitude from. Like you said man, it's all about getting the most out of what you've got, and people with attitude don't get the fact that there is always going to be someone just a little faster next time.

What the hell, we're all there just to have fun anyways. Thumbs up to you.

Thanks for the props my friends. Weird deal. Never ever run into someone like at any track. My Tally boys came around for a little backup. I did win $60 for the "dial in for dollars" that night which was the first money that car ever won me. Now if I can only win 2,000 "dial in for dollars" it will have payed for itself.

Thanks to Dgussin for the QUICK find on that one.

NP Derek...it just didn't sound right...you don't seem like the **** talker. If you want me to link you up with a buddy that runs similar times to you I can...he lives in Crestview, FL and usually runs at the local 1/8th track there. He's a real cool guy, a technician for fighter planes. I am sure you could get some good races going with him...just don't let him spray on you.

I like how that oxford guy talked **** to him.

I guess captainphat is so insecure that he has to lie.

Derek,

That was very well handled my friend. Classy, calm, and collected. I am, and have been for many years, amazed at the kind of keyboard warriors people, like captainphat, turn into when they post on forums.

My hats off to you on handling it like you did... you really proved to be the much bigger man - even if you do have the slower car

Derek, they're calling you a liar over there:

"Derek is a liar. I have seen his car, and it is a V-36 with quadruple turbos AND 2 Kompressors. Just before the race, I saw him run over to the "captain", drop trou, and slap his but cheeks 3 times. He then skipped off chanting "I'm gonna wiiiin, I'm gonna wiiiin". The cars line up and when the lights dropped, Derek pulled out a supersoaker and sprayed down the "captains" side of the track with baby oil. Old cappy did three 360's and before he knew it, he was 8 car lengths behind. Thats when I heard the captain say "NO HE DI'INT" and hit the 32 stage nitrous button. His cobra was actually 4" off the ground as it crossed the line ahead of the V-36 AMG grocery rocket. Derek can lie all he wants, but I was there, and I seen it."

That forum is alive with posts right over the last few days. I laugh so hard everytime I read the thread over there, especially the message above.

On another note, kudos to the folks on the svtperformance forum for being really stand up people. Aside from phatass, everyone has shown good character and been very genuine so far with regard to Derek. Thumbs up to everyone over there!

Well, it seems that Captainphat has appologized, so at least that is good. Nice reply too Derek, very professional and good attitude on your part.
