Matt and I planned on racing at our local track, US131, on Saturday Oct. 31 but the track cancelled Friday night because of the rain. No surprise, another race day cancelled here in Michigan. It gets really old. Matt and I decided to make the 2.5 hour trip to Milan. Quite the drive but the Sunday forecast looked great. I guess that’s what you do when you are racing addicts. There wasn’t that many people at the track to my surprise considering the weather was so nice. The track was decent but I was still traction limited, definitely going to be a focus for me in the off season. I made 4 or 5 runs that day and the best pass was an 11.24 @ 131.99. Matt and I are trying to go back to Milan on Saturday Nov. 7 if anyone in the area is interested in meeting us there. It would be nice to meet some of you and have more Cobalts out there racing. Hit me up with a pm if you are going.

Congrats ryan! looking good

 

holy ****

 

I have a feeling the LNF being just a turbo will prove to be a better setup although the motors are so different it's comparing apples to oranges.

 

absolutely sick lol damn guys

and i envy the fact you have a close track any track i goto is 1.5-2 hours away lol

 

Thats impressive!

And I know how you feel traveling to the track. The closest one to me is 3 hours away

 

damn cecil is 3 hours damn

 

sickk bad asss work

 

wowzers

 

That is just plain badass!!!

 

i smell a 10 second 1/4 mile with moar traction

 

i wish u guys were in SoCal so bad...

 

Damn! Must be nice to have a built motor done up right.

 

132mph is good for a mid 10 in fwd with good traction.

 

The motor is stock with the exception of valve springs.

 

Good job Ryan

 

speechless....

 

wow man, f'n awesome

 

now that's fast. congrats man

get that traction under control and you'll be changing your huggies.

 

Exactly, so wtf does the LNF have to do with a twincharged LSJ?

 

Holy hell that is an awesome time! I smell tens also!

 

I honestly can't see a turbo only LNF beating out a twincharged LSJ. I think the LNF would need nitrous to help it out of the hole.

It's just too different to compare, not fair really, 2 power adders to one.

 

Wow that pretty impressive. You didnt change the cams though??? What rpm are you shifting at?? Cause my power falls off at like 6400 on the stock cams.

 

Do work son

 

Getting off the line is no problem with the LNF. It will do 1.6 sixty foots if the traction is there. Ryan has way too much power in 1st gear to put it to the ground without spinning the tires. He won't have a launching advantage until he finds more traction. The advantage that his car has over my car is that I'm still limited to ~500whp based on the fuel system we have. He can keep turning up the boost and making more power with his setup.
