this is retarded. No one on this board is hanging with a heads/cam LS anything with any stock tune.. No one is hanging with a heads/cam 4th gen with a supercharger or the stock turbo either (except maybe Area's TVS....lol, and thats at a 70mph roll)

Sounding beastly doesnt mean it is cammed. You know how many people ask if my GTO is cammed? a LOT, and it doesnt even have a catback, let alone a cam...just some long tubes.

So quit hating guys do wait until you see the vid, then feel free to say whatever you like, he took him by about 2 cars so it was a gd race
3.42s are better for top end on those cars. 4.11s and 4.56s are for dig racing. 3.73s and 3.42s are for roll/high speed runs. So catching him on a gear that he should run away on idk.. I'm think it was a lt1 still and the kid was just saying he had a ls1

If you can beat a stock Terminator you should trap 113+

Wow "never really been a the track " that explains a lot about you right there. I agree with you though you should trap somewere between 110-113 but since YOU have never trapped that i guess you can just say you trapped 0 mph. What your car should do and what is does do are two completely different stories. For example my car bone stock should run a 12.8-12.9 quater mile pass did it, no. You drive a manual its not a set up drag car to run a certin time every pass so the only real way to know what you and your car can do is to run it.

I don't care to drag my car much so not being able to wheelie doesn't bother me at all. I prefer being able to drive the car everyday and go through a road course a couple times a year.

I know you are

I'm not a fan of the SRA swap on Cobra's, I really feel that it takes away from the car itself, like it's not really a Cobra anymore.

A stock tune Cobalt is essentially a stock Cobalt. No stock cobalt is goind around eating up LS1 cars and procharged LT's. End of story. Unless you deployed oil slick halfway through the race, you wouldn't even beat a stock LS1. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if this wasn't even a V8...

I take that back. See for oil slick to be effective, you have to be in front of your opponent.
