I already know your car is fast JD. But damn.........that Lightning was right on your ass[:-]
EDIT: Ok, I looked at it again......I take it back. He was a few lengths back at the end. My bad[&o]
The Lightning ran a 12.5, he was more than few lenths back, but IIRC he treed me pretty good. He had a quick truck, and came over later and told me he did'nt exspect me to beat him that bad as my car looked stock at the time and he was on a slick and I was on a dr.

Honestly guys, just let it go. Cuz now he'll just go back to his Cobalt forum and report back how all us mustang guys get butt-hurt over a s/c 4 banger beating us. I really could care less how fast his car is or how slow the mustang he raced was. His video doesn't changemy reality any.
Good kill..........
????[&:]
it doesnt matter that forum is so ****ed anyway, i'd be surprised if there weren't two threads in the racing section right now of "stage 2 ss/sc vs ford gt vs f430 vs z06, ss/sc walks em with ease!" i wont name the forum, but iwhine knows what im talkin about. and blue, so many guys have blown #4 on the lsj with around 20 psi it isn't even funny. back when i was on ummmm an unnamed forum, there must have been 5 guys in 3 weeks that posted, "blew #4 "
as for this race... with a bad launch it's beleivable. That shelby should have ****in ROCKED that ss out of the hole, but it didn't. That ss is a high 13 sec car, the shelby is a mid 13 car, so having a ****ty ass launch could decide the race, im not too surprised really. Auto shelby (basically gt) with ****ty launch can get beaten by a modded cobalt, that should not be a big surprise.

RE: cobalt vs 06gt
He's running 18 psi boost on a Gm stage 2 kit plus the spray. I've read on the cobolt forum that they have an issue with piston rings or rods or whatever but I asked about this, and my friend gave me the 1000 Hp ecotec comments. I don't claim to be a ecotec factorytech.

I've never actually raced but according to my dyno numbers. I should run 8s on street tires.

i think its the ring landing that is having issues. I don't think it has been determined yet, but i beleive it is most likely a fuel delivery issue, but it is not easily fixable. The 1000 hp ecotec shares the valve cover and the block with the stock ecotecs. lol.
