Speaking of which, when I have some time MP cobalt I can send you a copy of my best time slip. I think it was 13.5X @ 108.Xmph with a 2.2X 60"
I have owned this car, and it is one of the best taken care of cobalts in the USA. As for mods, who cares. The car pulled 101mph trap speed stock. Did I meantion mid 13s on the stage II pulley? Yea, this car for sure has my vote.
I'm just glad its not a riced out cobalt like half the people here. Nice and clean. Keep the hoopty **** in the Ghetto. For you to make a comment about MP cobalt, when you have a fart can on your car.
This site never ceases to amaze me. The clutch and flywheel is rated the best one made for street/strip for the LSJ. If you don't call a 1200 dollar + clutch and flywheel a mod I don't know what is.

im not saying its a bad car, its an awesome car, im just saying its not modded much to set it apart from the others...
I just want to let it be known that Im not hating on the car or on MP cobalt...Its an awesome car, and MP is an awesome guy and knows these cars. What im saying is in my opinion there isnt alot that sets it apart from alot of the other cobalts on this site...yet
and if that is the stance you take on this site...that it should be for ss cobalts only...then go join some other site lol
and on top of that...you know you wouldnt have things like the support of trifecta without the ls cobalts right????

that argument has been fought many a time that that means nothing on this site...go look at the polls at who there are more of

the only things diff about our cars is a lip kit, some tail tint, and the types of rims...so how are we going to say mine isnt clean but his is... your retarded
and no, the ss/tc would not have. vince didnt know about cobalt tuning before tuning my cobalt, i was the first cobalt and first ls ever tuned by vince. after I was tuned and he could tune ls cobalts i started reffering local guys to him like ss/scs and such until he got on here himself to support all cobalts including the ss/tc. without the need for someone to tune the cobalt ls and my talking with him about it getting done, you and everyone else tuned by him would be SOL...so...think twice before putting down the "little ls cobalts" that are modding with the big guys now..
