so i was just driving around, wasting the expensive 91 octane, and as i am sitting at a stoplight (one of the long ones with no
sensors so you sit there for like an hour) a orange Cobalt SS pulls up next to me. I'm just sitting there listening to music when he
starts yelling at me. I asked what he said and he says, "i've seen you around town, car looks pretty cool." i say "thanks" he
then replies "i hate to break it to ya, but my car is probably faster." I just laugh to myself and play dumb. i say "yeah i have
heard those SS's are pretty quick, you want to see how well i can keep up?" he says "you read my mind."
I rev it to about 3500 and wait for the light to turn. the second it hits green i'm gone, launched hard, and he went from
right beside me to rearview mirror. then i started to let out the gas and he "attempts" to do the loser fly by. i then step
back on the gas, and keep sort of bobbing the nose of my car in front of his nose. He is full throttle shifting at what sounded
like 8,000 rpm, and i am just fuckin around, pissing him off. at the next red light we pulled up side by side and he looked over.
i said "man, that was a close one, looks like you just wasted 20 grand. If you liked chevys so much
you should have bought an older vette" he replied
"fuck you dude", and imediately turned right. i was left laughing my ass off... :rollinglaugh:

There was one of those things at the racetrack a few months back. I was beating him repeatedly with my near-stock 95... not by much, but beating him nonetheless. They're slow.

Guys were sitin out front cause there were no customers so they heard me pull up. Guy says hey you got a s/cer on there. LOL well it aint a vacuum leak. He says you dont wanna mess with that SS its makin 800hp. I said Whoa I wouldnt think of it. LOL.

hahhahahaa... That a good one..

But nothing beats last night.. There is this local meet up in the area, so we decided to go down and see what's up, supposed to have some street races going on.. Well a buddy of mine took his bus out (excursion).. and nobody was seeming to race.. Well we got to set one up with the xcursion and a srt4 that the guy said he had already beat the bus..

Needless to say that we handed him his ass going down twice.. lol.. turbo d + nitrous makes that thing scoot. it's fastest time is 8.2 in the 8th..

Too bad our buddy with the vid camera wasn't able to come out..it would of been a great vid.

800 hp ss cobalt better have slicks on it...retards


nah man, a double stack wing to handle all the horsepower with extra downforce. O0

theres a guy here in town i was talking to, he has an evo 8 with roughly 15K dumped into it, full exhaust, bigger turbo,
injectors, everything. i asked him what it put down, he said 430 to the wheels (he had dyno sheets to prove it)
then i asked him whats his best quarter mile time, he said 14.7!!!!
i talked to a friend of his, he said with all the mods he has done to it, it should be a mid 12 sec. car, this guy just cant drive!
hahaha :rollinglaugh: apparently he has burned through a brand new clutch in about 3 months!! hahaha

Mid 12's??? It better be faster than that, with 430 to the tires these 4800lb Lightnings run mid 12's and I KNOW those cobalts dont weigh what the L's do

quote "Mid 12's??? It better be faster than that, with 430 to the tires these 4800lb Lightnings run mid 12's and I KNOW those cobalts dont weigh what the L's do "

i didn't want to argue with a guy that deals with cars that i dont know much about, i just nodded my head and moved on to
a different subject. i thought it sounded a little slow, but then again i dont drive a mitsubishi, so i wouldnt know. :dunno:
all i know is that the guy that is friends with him and was telling me all of this drives an eclipse GSX, modded out, so
i figured i wouldnt argue with a fellow "four banger turbo" crowd member. but i do see your point.

Here's one for you all.

A buddy of mine at work has one of the new Tiburon's. The GT trim, V6. He said "Yeah it's pretty fast. The cool thing about Tiburon's is that all you have to do is put on an intake and exhaust and it's a 10-second car."

I reply with "Oh...really? That's fascinating...are you sure?"

"Yeah man. Something about the way the Tiburon's are made makes them just lightning fast."

"Yeah...lightning. Well I'll have to come to the track with you when you put those two on."

"I already have them. It's super fast."




Jump to about 2 months later when I drive up to him turning right onto a long, straight 3 lanes in both direction type road. I looked at him going about 10, he looked back, and I just punched it.

Needless to say, when we arrived at work, I said "Man, my stock mustang must be an 8 second car!"

Nice kill. This guy I know has one thats all stock with just a smaller sc pulley. He runs consistent low 15s they are a bitch to launch with FWD setup even with limited slip. Funny thing is it could probably put a hurting onto many sn95s that are stock.

I just still find it amusing on how people can feed themselves such a line of bulshit and keep on believing it after they have been proven wrong time and time again.....I love the stories you guys have because that is exactly what happens all the time. Almost all the time I find someone at a meet or car show who acts just like that. :lame:
