hmm didnt see those civics do that but did see a stock srt 4 do just as good as a srt 4 that has a bigger intercooler, diff turbo and more goodies under the hood?? and people constintly get their tirers to spin in 1st and 2nd gear?? my best times were 15.1 but with a 2.5 60 ft and i didnt rev to launch just started @ 0 and pushed it and that's when my reaction time were 0.6170-0.4938 with my best 60 ft @ 2.3280 @ 15.1123 @96.12 mph and that was against the rx 8...but oh well...need to figure out how to do it better next time ago since im so use to pembina hwy..lol

and i'm doin nuthin tmrw nite, just relaxing...

 

Workin til 11 then make my lap around portage, looking for all the cobalts that aren't there lol

 

courtney.. that truck that you said got stolen out of your parking lot there was my buddies truck.. He owns that blue one as well.. He had just sold his white beater truck, and bought that thing for his new beater.. He literally had it a couple days.

It hasnt been found yet...

 

So the stock SRT was running high 12's???

 

hey guys been a while im trying to sell my winter rims used for 1 winter paid 1000 asking 630$ trying to pay off a stupid loanbut im never on the internet anymore so u have to call me 479-6853 ask for rob thanks guys

 

haha..that'll be the day and u wish...you honestly should have been there and then you wouldnt be talking crap but i saw those to srt 4's in the high 14's 1 stock, 1 not...but either way you can believe what you want to believe, i saw what i did see and you can just pretend and say that it was just as good as last year..

 

I did 13.9 in late september. Driver mod maybe the problem here or the car is screwed. but maybe oneday that can be figured out which is which. I have posted more than once on here as to how to drive the car to 13.9 but you guys are not reading that info I guess. WHen I got my best 60 of 2.18 I started out like I was driving from a green light in the city with a cop sitting right beside me just waiting to pull me over for chipping my tires. I had no slip but all clean acceleration. I looked and felt slow but it was the best time I had to date. 13.9 was done with a 2.25 60' I believe.

All I can say is Pablo knows what he is doing and helped me progress in my starts. I would take his advice. it works


Settle down ....LOL his comment is regards to "STOCK SRT-4 with mods". also the srt-4 is apparently easier to go fast cause he is doing 12's and were not. face it guys an SRT-4 is showing up to be a better platform and that is due to the large heat pump we have strapped to our motors. you want to go fast? get ready to put in stronger pistons, head and cams cause it is not all about boost and then turbo it. Kennyspec will likely show us the way and take the title of fasted cobalt in manitoba. I think I will still be the fastest cobalt with SC'er but I will be lucky to see 12's with that setup at the rate I am going. I will have missed 2 T&T's cause I am so busy. I have my car tuned for drivability to get by but still slower than a stock cobalt I would think. anyway maybe for mid august or september. I will see if I can beat my current record.

 

Man I'm not talking crap, you're obviously taking things the wrong way, fact being a stock SRT should go low 14's with a decent driver, a highly modded should be a full second faster, and that's picking up a full second after the 330ft mark which is 3rd and 4th gear, because of top end.

The blue SRT you saw happened to run a 15.6 last year, lets face it poor guy can't drive at all kinda like a blue SS owner that's in the 15's as well (I can be an ass if I want to be)

SSnipes, I know what you mean about being to busy to even make it to the track, we had a guy quit at work, and now I'm stuck filling in saturday shifts until we hire someone. Getting Sunday's and monday's off is just not what I'm looking for. Hopefully you can get your car worked out, at least there's a whole month now before the next T&T.

 

well i aint taking it the wrong way, im just saying a stock srt 4 was just as fast as a modified srt 4 yesturday...but that guy in the blue was doing some decent times, almost a whole second faster...either way it was fun yesturday....next time i go i'm going to figure out how to launch this car propperly over there...on another note, when are people actually going?? so i can book it off...

 

If that was me, I'd suspect the guy I bought it from.

 

Thought, I just watched your vid, thanks man it was a great vid, very nicely done and a steady hand too and the messages before the races were awesome especially the cobalt vs. snowmobile. I remember running againts one last year, the bastard ran a 9.6

 

who's all going out 2nite? if so wana meet up @ pony coral for the car show first??

 

im down to meet up somewhere......triple b's at 8? Anyone?

 

shaw @ 11??? LOL

 

triple b's nah...a&w anyone @ 8 across polo park? lol

 

Well it's official... after a few hours behind the wheel with a full LNF Ecotec and drivetrain (from the Solstice) swapped out... the Cobalt just doesn't seem fit for a RWD setup. No weight on the back, the tires cut loose with WOT in 4th gear.... quite sad really.

In any case.. I dropped the ol LSJ back in and now I'm pushing around 490hp. After several runs I've averaged out my 0-100mph time to be just over 8.2 seconds.

I guess turbo really isn't the way to go

 

both links just come up as a picture...

 

Yeah, some guy posted how to actually get those screen shots on here, I guess you have to be logged in to the account to see them.

 

ill be there then....anyone else?

 

i go out tonight i believe. not at 8 though probably 9.

 

Pictures fixed!!!

P.S. Also decided to go wingless finally.

saw ryan earlier today on logan by burger factory...so yeah i should be there around 8-830ish

 

ill be there @ 830-845ish..lets just make it 9 to be safe..lol

 

Well, it was short and sweet for me. Stayed just long enough to **** off the folks at A&W by ordering food at 11:45. On another note, looks like there is alot of interest to find another time we can all go to Gimli together. So, let me find the test and tune dates.........
Here they are:

(SAT)June 16
(SAT)July 14
(SAT)August 4
(SAT)September 1
(SAT)September 15
(SAT)September 29
And if the DRAM calendar is correct, add:
(SAT)June 30
(FRI)July 13
(SAT)August 18

I think the easy way to go would be to put your name next to the dates you can commit to going, then we can just keep copying the previous list and add to it. Here is mine:

(SAT)June 16: thought
(SAT)July 14: thought
(SAT)August 4
(SAT)September 1
(SAT)September 15
(SAT)September 29
And if the DRAM calendar is correct, add:
(SAT)June 30: thought
(FRI)July 13: thought
(SAT)August 18

I'd like to see at least 5 Cobalts go and make a day of it. On another note, seems recently there is some friction in the ranks? I dunno if it's the stress of trying to make our balts fast and furious or what. I think we need to meet up for just for ***** and giggles and help each other out more than compete with each other. How about an afternoon at the go kart track just West of the city here? That way I can finally kick Juan's ass lol. Anyway.....

 

Juan I found a possible solution to your limp mode.

Limp Mode Fix



Seems we lost spirit once I stopped with the horrible jokes. May be time to start again...
