Ok guys, i wanna hear some bragging rights....

Who has the fastest Cobalt in this forum?

 

My E-Cobalt does the Quarter in 7.20's all day long on pump gas..lol Sorry had to do it...

 

I hope you are meaning 1/8 mile and not 1/4 mile on your times. If that's the case everyone would want your secret knowledge. That is a damn good time for an 1/8.

 

i think he means his 'fantasy cobalt'...

13.56 @ 100mph for me.

 

My E-cobalt is a procharged Z06

 

couldnt tell you never raced my car on the strip yet

 

8.83 1/8th

 

14.6 @ 99.8 1/4. Stock.

 

I'm pretty quick, but certainly no where near the fastest.

 

There is already a sticky on this.

 

If you've never run your car... do this math.

cube root of cars weight/horsepower times 5.825 = 1/4 mile ET
cube root of horsepower/cars weight times 234 = 1/4 top speed

 

or this link to http://www.teamenvy.com/battlecalc.htm

assuming my weight is 2900
whp ~275

should be around 12.77sec

 

Um no, your equations may be right but there is a lot more to driving fast then math. The number one factor is a driver and you can't make an equation for that. I'm somewhat insulted by someone who uses these formulas to tell me there quartermile time because I've practiced my ass off just to get a 14.4 in this car.

 

These people had something to show.

I know i would never get my calculated time simply because of various factors and the fact i have never ran on the drag too will also play a big factor for me

 

I don't know how high up on the list I am, but I trap 107+ on 91 octane...

 

These are just for some rough guesses... Nothing too exact. If you're insulted...deal with it. Those numbers are just a goal.

 

From that link, I put in 3000lbs. for the weight. And assuming my whp should be 315 (will have definite number next week), then my 1/4 mile time was 12.34 seconds. The day I run that, is the day that pigs fly hahaha. My best was a 14.5 @ 98 when I was stock, haven't been back since.

 

That sounds right since the equations dont account for reaction time and shifting.
