Cobalt30

My friends sister has the TC and for a while now we have been talking bout running our cars. Well anywho tonight was the night we ran. We only did 2 runs but thats all we neeeded. .

First run: 2 lanes wide at a traffic light. We went from a dig on green. Light turned green i eased the clutch out and just took off like a rocket. I pulled hard on him on first and got about .5-1 car length. then by the middle of second he was 2 cars back and I was gaining on him even more up till 3rd gear when i shut down at like 85ish. I prolly had about 2 cars maybe. Give or take.

Second Run: We went from a roll. from 25 mph. I was in second and for those who have the 2.2 I was at a low rpm around 2500-3000'ish. So we were steady all the way through 2ed gear untill i hit high power band and gained a little bit on him. When i threw it into 3rd gear i pulled even harder on him.

He has a 05 Scion TC Automatic w/ lowering springs (looks real mean. I like the look)

Me. 05 Chevy Cobalt w/ secret weapon-r air intake, lowering springs, short shifter.

He was honestly flabbergasted. He couldnt even understand that I just toyed w/ him 2x in a row. i sent him that video on here w/ the sedan cobalt beating the TC and he didnt believe it. Needless to say he will be thinkinig himself to sleep tonight.

Nice runs! I also raced a TC about a week ago. We raced from a roll at about 60 and we punched it. I took about 2 car lengths on him and still pulling in 4th. Then at the stoplight i pulled hard on him again. Mines bone stock.

Soo.. Your friend raced his sisters car vs yours??? Not to call bullshit or anything but you really mixed things up..

nhoj505

yea those cars pretty quick i got beat by a turbo one he had about 3 cars on me

Cobalt30

Well when I said what he has i thought it would be easier to understand what car im talking bout then his sister. I raced my Friend tony whos sister has the TC and sicne his car is in the shop (XA) story in the massacahusetts section under HIN). . he was using his sisters car this week.

heres a pic of his rear on the way to the spot. The only time i saw his rear.

2K5SS/SC?

First the Auto tC's are slow. If you raced a 5-speed, I think the story would be different as my buddy has one and I assure you it's quicker than a 2.2. He only has cosmetic mods, so he isn't pushing any extra ponies.

Yeah, I agree... a properly driven 5-speed tC probably shouldn't lose to a 2.2. A 2.4, maybe, but a 5-speed tC should be faster than a 2.2.

BTW, 2K5SS/SC, your car looks great w/o the spoiler... so much cleaner looking.

05sedan

well the tc i raced was a 5 speed....check out the video on streetfire.net look for 05sedan from *************** vs 05 scion tc

Blainestang

So, what does a 2.2 run in the 1/4 stock? I know that a 5-speed tC is capable of mid-15's, so that may be a driver's race with a 2.2, I guess. Like I said, I don't really know what a stock 2.2 runs in the 1/4, but was thinking high 15's or so. Either way, if someone races an auto and it's fairly close, a 5-speed will put up a much better fight.

05sedan

the 5 speed cobalts stock should do a high high 15 stock with a decent driver...low 16's with a average driver
