Big wheel, ported stocker on ethanol

Last night - Ran an auto 135i running ethanol and JB4. Multiple runs from 30-40mph up to 110ish and it wasn't pretty. Guy hadn't seen a 4door SS/TC before and told me " Wow man, that thing scoots!"

Fun times in the rental car

Already got called out by my fiances brother who I killed in his charger RT. Now he is getting a new 2016 scat pack charger and he is ready to race me. I will record it. I'm sure it might be close from a roll but not a dig.

Heck where i live its hard to find someone to race you. You see people with modded cars here (mostly WRX's) but they never want to race. I would get beside them and just tap the throttle so they could hear the bypass valve. But they would never pay any attention. I think most of the people just mod their cars for show and dont want to race them. That aside after a couple years i have gotten a couple races in. The first was around midnight and a WRX STI pulled behind me at a light. after it turned green he got next to me and counted down. So at about a 30 roll we went he jumped ahead about half a car length and i just reeled him in and started putting car lengths on him. Was a newer hatch one i would say a 2014, all i could tell is he had an exhaust. Honestly i didnt know how it would turn out. Never got one to race before so i didnt know if i would win or not. People always have boasted about how epic they are. It felt good putting him in his place though. The second race was a couple days later i passed by a new 5.0 at a light and he went from the straight lane to my turn lane so i knew he wanted to play. We got a couple races in. The first one i noobed it up and hit the fuel cut off, we stayed pretty even on that one. The second race i pulled ahead by a car before we let off. We ended up talking at the next light. The car had full bolt ons and a tune. Im very happy with these cars they have such a great drive train. I am kind of shocked i beat him though with all those mods. kind of wondering if he was really trying lol.

I honestly couldnt agree more. Mine has the low spoiler on it so i think people just think its a regular cobalt. Was debating on maybe putting the high rise on it. But then again if they cant see the difference with the wheels and trim kit that probably wont help.

surprising at how much being almost 1k lighter makes a difference.

Every 100lbs slows you down by roughly .1sec

That cause JCM only does money runs, makes fun of Kevon, and talks mad **** about everything that is not a Skyline.


I would race you.

I am surprised I didn't as I was calling one of the mods a retard that has no business on a car page with his POS car.


Yes. I plan to. Either with my buddy and his LSJ-T swap or a bunch of local half tards with slow loud cars not worth my gas to race (that is my local car scene lol).

Awesome, we'll be there as well. Maybe they'll park us properly this year. Last year was a disaster.
