Taking the Cobalt out to Sacramento Raceway tonight going to see what kinda numbers i can pull this time now that I have the GMS1 and Catless DP. I ran 14.0 stock.

Any guesses on what my new times will be?????

 

13.5-13.7

 

At the least

 

With out a tune for the DP and on street tires.. stock conti's?? I will stand with my 13.5-13.7 depending on the temp and such.. more towards a 13.7 due to it being August.

 

Yeah stock tires its about 90 degrees out

So far I ran 13.7 @ 108mph

 

Lucky.. its been close to 110 here. lol.. so i dont go to the strip untill November.

 

Fastest trap speed was 109.664 mph

 

I should have said degrees outside... lol.. its been freaking hot out! not good turbo weather.

 

I knew what u meant

 

Oh.. ok

 

Was that 13.7 your best pass all day? Thats pretty darn respectable for just street tires and a pretty much stock car.

 

Yeah so far. its a bit cooler out now I'm going to run a few more passes to see what I get

 

That's pretty damn good man! Hopefully you're able to cut a decent 60' and hit a 13.5-13.6.

 

I need drag radials so I can launch off the line better. Also everytime I NLS to 2nd I spun all the way threw to 3rd gear I lowered my tire pressure down to 26 psi still was bad. I need to get some tranny mounts

 

use footballs it will help a lot on the 1-2 shift

Nova I dig the sig, Two Lane Blacktop. That Chevy was badass.
Chevy: with a little work this thing could be really fast
Pontiac: Its fast enough
Chevy: It can never be fast enough

Footballs really? Hey whatever works right.

 

Football's?????? Do I dare ask??

 

it's getting common. Just deflate some footballs, inflate in the rare suspension to taste and launch it.

Helps front stay planted a lot.

 

I'm going to take it you meant rear suspension and are you saying to install them inside the rear springs and inflate them??

 

Wow, that is a very high trap speed for a stock stage 1 tune. Most I have seen are running 104-105 mph. Then again some have trapped 104 MPH stock and some 98 MPH stock.

 

yes get the peewee footballs. regular size wont fit lol. deflate them and stick them inside the rear spring, then inflate them. make sure they're both at the same psi

 

106-107 seems to be the avg from what I've seen.

I've trapped 104.5 stock. Impressive in my book for a car that was completely stock at the time - I'm also a light guy too

 

If you are trapping almost 110 now on street tires,you should be a 13.0 car.You need to learn how to launch better on street tires,about 2.1 should get you there.Drag radials aren't going to help you much if you can't launch better without them

 

Me too!

 

^^ BS!

You're trapping 102. I've seen it in person
