My brother and I will probably be out there. He'll be trying to break 12's, laser blue SS.
Lots of the Iowa people are in the Facebook group but not on here for some reason.

That's unfortunate nobody comes here anymore, because I don't use Facebook... ya I know, I'm one of those people. I just thnk FB makes a terrible forum/group chat.
I'll be in a Black SS/TC, and I'll look for you guys! I'll be running pretty slow Saturday, pretty much just GM Stage 1 power levels.

hi guys!
guess I should swing by in here and say hi to my fellow Iowans.
09 SS/TC, you'll find me around the WDSM area, sometimes SE side of DSM, you can easily spot me by my license plate (>>username). feel free to wave if you recognize me from this post, lol.
don't go to meets or anything, but love the cobalts. any way, hi!

Hello! you should come out to some shows or track days this year. If it doesnt rain theres an open track for street cars saturday night at cedar falls raceway.
Met Gimpster there last week, sorry we're a little socially awkward btw gimpster lol.
Still need a tune for my car and then a new setup once i get settled into my new house.

Might've been me, I dunno... I should check the thread more often. My car is just stock looking and black, and my license plate is "GIMPSTR" lol.. so its pretty obvious its me.
Lately I've seen a couple other black SS/TC's, a red SS/SC parked in Adel and a yellow sedan TC in Urbandale. I don't know any of the owners.
SPDDMN36 - It's cool, my daughter and I are socially awkward too lol. We just made a few passes, and has some issues with getting the car into second all three. I got the issues figured out though, seems as though bleeding my clutch fixed it. I was not able to get better than a 14.7 @ 105mph 
If anyone is interested, I took my Cobalt to Marshalltown last week for the NQM AutoX on the gokart track. I used to hit those all the time in my Mustang owning days... good variety of cars shows up. We had the only Cobalt there though, but thats no big surprise. Car did really well!
Here is a link to the event, next is August 1st.

That Autocross sounds cool I might have to try to get to the next one just for grins, though I'm not sure my car will pass the inspection, I'm in need to buy some new rotors for the breaks, starting to shimmy when I brake...

Not new to the cobalt world but finally got my own last fall. Black TC coupe up in Ames. The ISU car club is beginning to get rolling around here so that makes for a good time when the weather starts to turn nice, would love to find fellow cobalts roaming around the streets this summer!
