Default Anyone tangled with a Cobalt SS/SC

Someone in town got a Chevy Cobalt SS SuperCharged. Same color at my TT
He's been giving me dirty looks every time i pass him on the 4 lane going the other direction. Guessing sooner or later i'll end up at the same light going the same direction.

Anyone raced one of these?

There 205HP 200ft tq
FWD 2991 dry weight

when i raced one, it was a joke. I had him by a couple bus lengths by 70mph. But I have never raced any tt's, modded or stock. Just run him and see, you got nothing to lose.....just be careful if you do it on the street.

i pull on them with basic bolt ons

once they get a smaller pulley it is a driver's race

my best friends older brother has a Cobalt SS and he will smoke me. He claims its stock, but I dont believe him because how many Cobalts do you know that can do burnouts almost into 3rd gear?

If his cobalt is the SS supercharged it will burn through 3rd.
Week ago i went and test drove one. dealer was dumb enough to let me take it on my own.
Man that poor car. I pounded that living **** out of it.
But i will say that SS SC is pretty fast for it's class of car I was able to spin into 4th gear.
Chevy did an awesome job on that car.
in a couple years i plan on picking one up for a tuner car to replace the Eclipse.

Some guy tried to run me the other day in a Cobalt...Guess he thought my 344 hp S4 was just another family hauler...Poor guy. I really think I hurt his feelings. Oh well.
