Raced a 08 HHR SS
It wasn't much of a race but the guy wanted to see how he would do. We went from 60 I was high in second and took off like a bat out of hell by about 100 I had maybe 6 or 7 lengths on him. Guy was real cool though asked if I was gonna trade my balt in for the new balt SS. I told him I had thought about it but probobly won't. I don't race on the street much, I thought this one was worth posting damn me for not having a vid camera.

He's automatic i'm guessing? I think he'd have much better luck from a stop.

I don't know your mods though..

my mods are 2.7 pully, 60 lb injectors, K&n Intake, full exhaust, solid tranny bushings, stage 2 axles Cobra heat exchanger, and an ingalls stiffy. I think thats it also the HHR was not auto, I thought it should have been closer too.

I'd have to disagree here. The HHR SS is heavier and slower than a SS/SC, but the LNF in a Cobalt is a different story.

I agree with this statement. the balt T/C will be a force.
