Actually man, I think your Grandpamachine would be a good match up for a Cobalt SS/SC. Gonna run one soon, or is that douche with his 93Cavalier still wanting to run?

that guy in the 93 admitted deafeat before it even started.... I told him I want to race him and stuff and I got this back

I honestly feel my car is a piece of crap. I really like the thrill though. I am a sucker for adreniline. Good call on the black and whites though. Your LS will probably beat me too, but like I said, it is still fun. Robbie (cobalt ss) is a really good guy and if you guy's are cool then that says alot about you. I just was noticing the differences between the info on the sc vs. mustang compared to the fun vid. and it threw me for a loop. The info you wanted on the SC is just the smaller pulley, deleted air silencer, spec stage 3 clutch and the gear(3.55). I cant say anything about what he told you but I know what he has done. The clutch was just done a month ago. Mine is an automatic, minus the lock-up sensor so I can have more of a stall before the actual launch. I dont have a wet shot either, it is just a simple throttle body shot. I believe just a hundred horse or so. With the spray I can get the SC. I am trying to get a video so I can show you. The cowl intake on my hood has been modified so that it truly works the way they should have from the factory. No hard feelings I hope. And I will be getting back to you shortly about date and time. Weekends are great for me also and hopefully I'll see you around. Hey, tell me what color your LS is and if I see you around I can make myself visible. I have no horn for the three honk cause I used the power and switch for the shot so you will have to do the honk thing. LOL.
I do not know what btw is but I am sure you will tell me in a response. His car runs in the mid to high 14's on a good day. That's when there is no misfires or missed shifts LOL. The cobalt beats him by about 8 or 9 car lengths if not more. I bought my cavalier from the guy that owns the cobalt. He used to work for me. I barely beat alot of stock mustang gt's without spraying but I think that is do to their driving errors. Either their tires go up in smoke or they just plain cant drive. Some can be because of poor maintenance too though. You will probably whoop my car with either of your vehicles but fun is fun. I just really like to talk crap to get people to go but you seem the type to go anyways. That is cool. The best car I have beaten was a SVT contour with who knows what mods but he said that he had a comp and cold air with borla system underneath. That was a close one but I barely won so I believe he had at least some mods done. I had 2 200+ lb. guys with me too. Oh well, It has surely been enlightening talking with you and like I said hopefully no hard feelings. See ya around.

"Morbid" are you serious? What the hell is a throttle body shot and how and the hell does it add 100hp? I'm sorry but his 140hp car with an auto is gonna have to have full bolt ons plus a S/C or turbo and some nitrous to beat stock Mustang GT's, unless by GT he meant an Escort GT. Seriously though, if he has an auto, he's probably running high 16's at best. Even with a 100 shot of Nitrous he is in themid to high 15's. This guy is a loser, please race him in your mid to high 14 second car and let us know how bad you beat him.

Throttle body shot is a dry nitrous system. The 1993 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 hit 60 in 8.3 and walked the 1/4 at 17.3. Only way I'd race that is for cash, $500+. And no cameras. Wouldn't want proof I ever did it. Just like sex with fat chics.

who the hell was saying that a cobalt makes as much torque as a GT does? even if it is a mustang dyno, it still would come out with less torque, screw what the math says.

ah i had to reread through a couple pages there, i thought the guy who was arguing for the cobalt meant SS (because that is what thread asks about, the SS model.) thanks for correction tho
