Nice! Lemme know when you are going to the track. A bunch of us usually go (I hardly ever race since I bought the STi and sold the F-body; I don't feel like launching so I will run high 13's lol) but I go with a bolt-on 02 Z06, an SRT-8, a supercharged 5.0, an upgraded turbo 944 and an evo with a GT35(?), 2.3 liter AMS-tuned car that looks stock (he doesn't launch either and still runs low 11's @ high 120's).
I usually see a red Cobalt SS and a black one that have exhausts and maybe a pulley (blower is loud) that always seem to run mid 14's; it's always annoying since I usually stick up for your cars and then my buddies see their times.

Otherwise there would be a Video.My G/F dosen't like the track.. And my friend (97 low 13's T/A) couldn't make it out.
man i wish i lived in cooler wheather! haha!
it's true, if you know how to drive the cobalt (which btw is way harder than STI) it's very easy to get very low times.
I would love to see the DR's and a 12 second stage 2 cobalt. it's defiantly possible. if you could get a 1.9-2.0 60' you'd be right there

I'm Hopeful about making a high 12 second pass by adding a 50-wet shot and clutch. (on street tires)
it may or may not happen.. but I'm gonna find out.
also possibly adding a 2.8" pulley instead of my current 2.9"

12.7 with stage 2 on drag radials is the biggest bull i have ever heard my man, WAAAAY overestimation...the guys with 2.5"s and 2.6"s and dyno tunes + waaaay more are only hitting bests of 12.8's on drag radials.

^ lol, some guys with 2.5s and 2.6s almost got beat by stage II balts you know. Its not all about a smaller pulley. So many people think you can just throw a smaller pulley on and be the fastest balt of all time. You know the stock blower is already maxing out at a lower psi then the smaller pullies are producing. If you run lower boost with cooler temps and more effiency you can have just as much power as a 2.5 or 2.6 guy.

fastest time = 1.)DWK5150,12.84@110.53 w/2.04 60',I/PB/DP/E/2.5"/HE/T/DR's
i was unaware that stage two gave a balt enough power to trap almost 111
i won't beleive anywhere near a 12.7 on stage 2 unless you gut it like a honda or something.
