STL to Dallas Newb
I was looking for a local site and came across this one, i recognize some of the names from SVTP. I own a 03 Cobra with a whipple 2.3 on E85. I also just picked up a 03 lightning, it's bone stock for now.
I will be relocating to Dallas sometime next year and looking forward to it. I have always loved visiting and can't wait to be able to drive/cruise/open track/drag my Cobra over the winter months.

I guess I should add I've been considering getting a new 5.0 (really want a Boss) for awhile now. Just not sure I could part with my Cobra, had it since '04.

Welcome to the site. 5.0 or Boss, you really can't go wrong with either car.

I agree. I've been house hunting online and found a few places in Wylie. I saw a post of yours on SVTP that caught my interest about that area and I'm sure I'll have questions when that time comes. Hopefully sooner then later.

Welcome!
Honestly, getting rid of either of those vehicles, even for a boss, will be hard.

Welcome chief. If you're deep in that cobra I would keep it, those damn cars are the fastest ones on this board. Damn terminators.

Welcome. Moving to DFW was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I'm in the same boat as you, don't want to get rid of my cobra.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.
