Bench Race...
I haven't got a clue who'll win this. Make sure you get that vid and post it!
I am like everyone else though.... Considering he's FWD, you maybe able to out launch him, as long as you don't let those 4.10s get away from you.

from what i hear its stock. **** idk if i can handle the gears with these tires and this weather. We will def get it on video win or lose and i may try to convince them to get a dig run in but like i said, it will prob be on the highway
As stated before from a dig if you can drive you should have a good shot at it. From a roll, if they are trapping 105 you're going to lose unless he's bad.
Drivers race from a dig, him from a roll.

The only one I've seen run, was having major traction problems, so obviously he was running crap times (Anywhere from 14.8-15.9). But, he was only trapping 102-103, in mid-low 20* weather. Aren't FI cars supposed to benefit a lot from cooler weather?

102-103 is what all of the magazines have tested them at. Traction problems are what you get with front wheel drive. For every 13.8 you see run in a Cobalt SS or SRT-4 your gonna see 50 mid 14s. I posted a few of the magazine tests below.

Either way you can't deny what this car has done stock. A 13.5 pass, a 13.6 pass and I'm sure this Spring and Summer we will see more mid 13 second times stock. I think it's safe to say it's the fastest stock production FWD turbo'd car for under 25k, even faster than the Caliber SRT-4 and it's AWD, and the SRT-4, along with other numerous 4 cylinder turbo'd cars.

Isn't the caliber SRT-4 FWD?
And +1 on them being a little bit faster than Neon SRT-4's.
OP, Loss from a roll by a little, win from a dig.
