Hey guys just got back from making a couple of runs at Toronto Motorsport Park (Cayuga Ont.) The temp was 28C with average to high humidity as normal in the Ontario area in the past 2mths. The car was hard too launch out of 1st gear just eased it out if I smashed on it massive wheel hop...shifted at 6250rpm...finished in 3rd gear.

Rt .641
60ft 2.345
1/4 14.700
mph 97.05mph


Rt .698
60ft 2.440
1/4 14.80
mph 96.68mph


Overall I was pretty happy with the results the temp was a little hot but car ran good and consistant...just got get use too lanuching. I talked too one guy in the J-Body club from TO and his buddy has a Black 05 SS and ran 2 weeks ago on friday night with colder temps and ran a 14.4 at 99-100mph so I think with better temps the car has got a mid 14 in it...Also there was a SRT-4 running and best was 14.3 at 98mph.....Colin

 

good times! I raced at Cayuga a few years ago and the conditons were terrible. Went to London drag way a few weeks later ona cool fall sunday and the car ran 0.4 sec faster

 

please say what kind fo car you have... i'm guessing the SS/SC...

 

Ya...I got a Rally Yellow SS/SC 05...without XM or ONSTAR...Colin

 

Good times! Looking at that 60 ft im pretty sure these cars will hit low 14s once we figure out how to launch them.(I cant launch mine either).

 

yeah, those 60's are awful, but going out to the track the first time, its expected. First time to the track with me i got just about the same 60's as you . Its definatly a low 14 sec car if you can improve those launches. Just keep practicing

 

Well as I said the lanuchs are garbage! If I got a 2.1 or 2.2 60ft the car would run a 14.5 for sure plus the mph is good for a mid to low 14 sec time.....I am going too go at night or during the day with less humid temps it kills the hp...Colin

 

i believe every .1 u drop on ur 60ft is .2 on the 1/4, thats just a baseline number, but good numbers, i also haev a rally yellow cobalt, i think i may have seen u drivng around either burlington or milton area....hard to miss two yellow cobalt ss' driving by each other

 

Yeah that was probaly me....I got a friend in Burlington but I am mostly in Hamilton 90% of the time...Colin

 

Do you remember the name of the guy from the J club? Was he part of the JCO?
Thats the club I am president of. The J-Body Club of Ontario.
But now w/ the new SS/SC I have, I`m looking forward to an Ontario Cobalt club.
Whatch for it soon!

 

Yeah I was there too.. Lots of fun.. I met Colin which was nice to see another Cobalt there.. He had some good runs..

 

, i also haev a rally yellow cobalt, i think i may have seen u drivng around either burlington or milton area....hard to miss two yellow cobalt ss' driving by each other[/QUOTE]


That might be me that you are seeing , I live in Burlington and work in Milton. Which one of you did I see on Tremaine last week ? We should all hook up one evening, 3 Yellow in one spot

 

u saw me man i was headin out to a stag, thursday night right, yea im down for meeting up lol

 

nice times man

 

Tio, i also work in milton (red '05 SS/SC), and a co-worker lives in burlington with another red SS/SC. We could all get together and colour coordinate our parking! lol
yel/red/yel....

 

joey...did i pull up beside u at a light in milton a few weeks ago and u were like "your the first cobalt ss ive seen on the road" and whatnot....red and yellow, that might haev been you lol

 

I sent you a PM regarding the SOCC - Southern Ontario Cobalt Club. Could use your help. Cobalt owners from our last meet in Vaughan have expressed a strong interest in moving forward with this. Would like to partner up with you to get this club going soon. Hopefully we can hook up soon. Ang

 

Why don't we try too get a meet close too everybody. I find TO too far too travel I would rather meet in Oakville/Burlington or something? Its about halfway for the GTA and halfway for Hamilton/Brantford area....What does everyone think? We could also have a meet at Toronto Motorsport Park? Colin

 

I live in Georgetown and bought my Cobalt SS/SC from Richardson Chev in Milton.
I have yellow inserts, that almost makes me a yellow Cobalt.

 

I very, very, very much like this idea. How does sometime in Septmeber sound? Which day do you prefer, Saturday or Sunday?

 

u bought the black demo cobalt with the yellow inserts? haha i drove that one lol

wallace pontiac just down the road ended up hookin me up on a yellow one.

 

If people are interested in going to the races that Colin and I were at.. There will be another one in September long weekend in Montreal.. Me and a few other people are going.. So if anyone would wanna go for the weekend to that let me know and we can arrange a time and place to meet.. It would be like Friday - Sunday (or Monday if you want)
