did you get a ticket???

I see cops everyday, as I drive through a construction zone with a weigh station.

Can you also tune the autos in Cobalts like you can in the Silverado's? Increase the line pressures, shift points, things like that?

i have a b&m shiftplus hooked up to mine, it boosts the pressure in the tranny. faster more powerful shifts. i love it, it shifts faster than a manual now

and yes the shiftpoints can all be changed as well

Nice! I hate that we don't have any E stations around here, minus the one in Columbiana. I wish HP tuners allowed a switchable tune, so you could run a 93 and e85 tune on the fly instead of having to reflash.

You would figure with all of the corn grown in this state that we would have more E85 stations, but we don't. We only have one that I have noticed in Medina.

Chris, have you figured out what is going on with your car?

Aces, let us know how Quaker is now, as I know that it went down hill in the last few years. I know some people that ran there, and it was not good lately.

I quit taking my truck to anywhere but Norwalk just because the track surface wasn't worth it. Hopefully Quaker has fixed that so I can go show the GM guys what's really up down there too.

Im not worried about it. A 4.4 is fast, not very many guys run faster than that on stock turbo! But when a station does come close to me, I will be be switching over for sure!

Yep, we finally got things figured out. Going to the track on 20psi tonight, weather permitting. Took my friends uncle for a ride that has a 09 gt 500, he said my car is already faster then that car.

I ran it on 680, which is, I think anyways, a tad more uphill then flat. But it was as flat as its gonna get around here. Thats straight anyways.

Im hoping for low-mid 12s tonight, all depending on the new track conditions...
