ite easly to chirp each gear at the track , my ford zx2 use to do it . i think it has more to do with the wheels slowing down in the next gear and not so much with them breaking loose due to so much power. casue the cobalt only chirps if the track is shitty. . . oh and it sounded like the civic , casue it sounded like he shifted 3 times wich would leve him in 4th gear.
heres my old zx2 chirping each gear..oh this also shows why i borke an axle in the SS, cause i thought i could leve the line at 5k like i did in the escort.

I just re-listened.

there was not even a peep of blower in that vid.
and considering the intake of the cobalt was on the camera side,
i think a 2.4 with high rise.

and if your squeeking them into 3rd, you need to tell your track to do a better job.
a little 250-300hp cobalt chirping 3rd gear?
thats terrible track prep.

Terrible track prep? I think not. How about maybe he's just power shifting. You could probably chirp 5th doing that.

I argue on every post?
seriously?

FWD will spin tires so much easier than RWD, or AWD.
on the street its very easy to break them loose at will.

and AWD: i just went to the track last night and powershifted every run. It didnt chirp once. and my tires are 50% worn.

Track prep has alot to do with it.

That's not track prep, you just suck ***** at shifting. If he had a track prep issue he'd be SPINNING, not chirping.

*pssst* Chirping is spinning.
just means the track has enough decent hook to grab after it initially breaks loose.

And i should have known better than to have any kind of discussion with you, because your only form of argument is to use personal attacks instead of just debate things.


Later guys.

wow some of you guys have absolutely no knowledge about racing, track prep, or "good shifting." the reason anomalous disagrees with alot of the **** posted on here is because most of the **** posted is so incredibly stupid it makes my head hurt. half the time i dont even want to conjur up the brain cells to try and reply. he is kind of enough to actually try and help you guys figure out what is wrong/right with stuff posted, so get off his ass.

thats really strange that you cant even hear a hint of the blower in the vid.

I dont deny that its s/c, obviously he has to have a stock intake system, but youd think youd still hear it a little.
considering its the closer car, on the intake side...

Which ever car had the loud exhaust was chirpin. I know I can chirp 'em into third on my dads BONE STOCK '06 Ion sedan while WOT shifting, so even gutless cars can do it with a fast enough shift.

either way it doesnt matter...they were both not that fast. so he squaked the tires each gear, it must have been the rubber, it was old/shitty/cold.
