Exclamation Cobalt Wins Time Attack

COBALT WINS TIME ATTACK
Taking first place at the time attack

Ok this is what I know so far in the new Super Street March issue on page 48 Street Speak, it said:

“ GM Cobalt time attack car –I surprised that General motors built a Cobalt just for Super Street Time Attack event, and what’s more, surprised the cobalt time attack car took FIRST PLACE at the time attack event, it means this cobalt is faster than a R34 GT-R and a Lancer Evo.”

Does any one else have any more info other then those few lines I have, and does any one know the time it set? I would really like to know the time the COBLAT SET that day.

Thank you for any info.

it comes on TV too. They go over it a few times. I can't remember the show name.....Basically it stomped everything out that day. I don't think anything else was built like it though. A bit unfair....JMHO

a friend of mine emailed me these scans of the SuperStreet April 2006 issue article about the Time Attack win by the Cobalt.

it's not too important what it's competition that day was, because the car did the " second fastest time EVER " at that track. GO COBALTS !!

(click on these small versions for the full images)




then I decided to photoshop the two first page images together and brighten it up some etc.
again, click for large size version

No, it's different. The tuner car was only a Stage 2 and no spray.

Similar, but it's not the "Street Tuner Challenge" car.

Notice the time differance in the article, and the different front lip, and spoiler. Also the Specs are on this link for the "Street Tuner Challenge" Cobalt.
https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/front-page-news-17/cobalt-ss-supercharged-wins-time-attack-street-tuner-challenge-6367/

Here are some stills I took of the recording I have of the last episode.

Notice the Differance, no N2o and blower not polished.


The dyno. They baselined a stock '05 then dynoed the "Challenge" car

If the Cobalt did that good, imagine how much better a RedLine would have done. God I hate when GM does that ****. They always give us the shaft. More expensive options, less power, cheaper interior.
