it was weird for me because if he wanted to race and if he was on the opposite lane, well, i don't know what else to say. i guess they could still do that if they want to race you even if they're on the opposite lane. or would that just not make sense? well, anyway, i usually don't race because i know it'sa V6 and i treat it like a regular car which is true. i can't afford to modify it anyway. i'd love to but maybe when the time is right.

There are some V6's running low 11's. I just watched a video of one running a 11.02@126 on a hot day. Stock V6 against stock SS/SC, the V6 wouldn't stand a chance.

when do you plan on modding that thing? Every CobaltSS I have seen run did'nt do to well, very high 14's to low 15's, not to say that all are that way. I could see an 05+ V6 beating one.

I thought SS/SC's were capable of mid-low 14's from the factory?

thay can, with a pro driver and a tail wind of about a 100mph.

they are its all in the driver. at the track yes a v6 could beat it, launching the car is a bitch, but from a roll its a little easier to work with

do Cobalts suffer wheel hop? I've heard that they have a weak axle that can break easily once someone puts on some drag radials and a pulley swap.
