There is a link or two of the first race in the thread as a photobucket link, I believe.

Oh gotcha! Yeah i remember posting and complimenting your car on your thread! Thanks a lot. Yeah I wish I would have turned it up to really see what the car could do, but I was pleased what it was doing on baby boost. =)

Yeah I talked to Paul once or twice. Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it.

So in 1 day, you and your Cobalt beat a total of:

3 Lamborghinis, 20 Corvettes, including 7 ZO6s and 3 ZR-1s, a ZL1 Camaro, 2 Nissan GT-Rs, an Aston Martin V8 Vantage, a Porsche 996 twin turbo and many other cars you just wouldn't normally expect a Cobalt to one-up.

That's impressive.

Were 113 and 118 kit cars or something?

Also - very cool that the Typhoon and Sunbeam Tiger were there . . don't see too many. That Typhoon was smokin' fast!

And how the hell does a 96 Caprice Hearse run 161mph .. ?!

Thanks for sharing the info - good work.

Thanks a ton man! I really aprpeciate it. Yeah the car and I did well and surprised a lot of people. Many people came up to me and said they would look at cobalts completely differently now. lol.

These were all taken from a spread sheet and put in order so I'm not exactly sure what 113 and 118 were.

Yeah the typhoon is a shop car, came in on a trailer and everything. his first few passes on his normal boost level I still out trapped him. Then they turned it way the hell up for one pass. The sunbeam was a nice rare car to see there too!

AMS built that Hearse that is why.

Poor STI, ever had a chance haha. But nice car, one of the best Cobalts I've seen in terms of build quality and appearance.

There's some unexpected cars towards the bottom of that list. I'm assuming something happened during their passes? lol

101 yes, the TT vette was having issues, but the ZL1 and mercedes were consistent. ZL1s are extremely heavy though they have the hp. ALso this ZL1 was a convert iirc, so even heavier.

Yeah the ZL1s are slow for what they are. Chevy needs to put the Camaro on a serious diet because it is a pig.

They are supposed to get built on the ATS chassis next time around. That will make them quite a bit lighter.

IIRC the ATS 2.0T weighs only a few hundred pounds less than the Camaro SS and it does not have a V8, larger beefier trans and rear diff. Curb weight will probably go down 100-200 lbs at most once they stuff all the extra weight in that chassis. The Camaro could stand to loose another 500-600 lbs on top of that. They need to go back to offering 2900-3100 LB V8 rwd sports cars. Everything has gotten so damn heavy it takes an extra 100-200 whp to get these newer sports cars to compete with the older lighter ones.

That is there way of keeping things 'tame' while these cars are making more and more hp. Make them heavier and heavier

The new SS Sedan weighs 3,975 lbs or something like that. Comes with lots HP too.
