i would love to see a pic of some one over 124 in my coupe it hits 124 and bucks like a fuel cut off it is it only the sedan that are hitting over 124

 

when i get enough ***** to do it again ill get a video or something, im kinda sketchy about doing it at that speed though

 

yep

back in the day there used to be a cop with a confiscated camaro that was stupid quick (haha that probably shows how long it's been since I've been there) but even he wasn't out all that often. that road is plenty of room though. then again, people like myself hypsy and njhk can hit their "limiter" in much less than all that road, I'd say 1/2 to 1 mile or so.

iLLmaTic you're in huntington right? I used to live in west islip right off of montauk and robert moses.

 

the top speeds of the base cobalt and the ss are different. the reason being is air resistance. it is a force acting against you, and to overcome this force you need power. seeing as how the 2.2 has 145 hp and the 2.0 has 205, the 2.2 is missing about 60 hp that the 2.0 uses to overcome air resistance at those speeds. therefore in theory it is impossible and improbable that a coablt ls would have the same top speed as a cobalt ss/sc.

 

now some one please tell what the point is of these top speed runs?

How often and where do any of you think your going to go above 80?

seriously speeding is reckless enough but trying to top out STOCK cars on public roads is just a bad idea.

Not trying to be a dick or anything its just my opinion

 

it's a pretty good opinion to have, it raises your life expectancy.

 

yeah slowion2. we got alot of cobalts running down here. we got to e-town alot to race. we have alot of guys that go up to dpa/the ave whatever u want to call it and run. its awesome ill try to get picks 2 nite and post em on the this thread or wherever.

 

Correction...I hit the limiter in a 1/4 mile I love my car

 

Never taken my Sedan over 75. I'm sure it could go way higher but whats the point? it's a 2.2

My SS/SC though i've gone over 140 in before once!

 

lol you don't count, your car is a bastard , I've actually known about your car for a while through some friends of mine and Bill at Hahn, very impressed with it

I hit mine about 50ft after a 1/4 mark, maybe 75ft, but mine is a bit lower and a lot more mild build too

 

Well right now mine doesn't hit the limiter at all. Seems I blew the motor or something. Guess I'll know when I get the time to take it to the shop and tear it open. Next time out I'll be going for 11s though.

 

you're kidding, that sucks. changing the setup a bit now?

 

You can swap your engine for mine

Start over fresh!

 

I've hit 123mph on the FL turnpike in broad daylight in a dead strait line,lol. I stopped in the middle of the road and gunned it. It was a rush.

 

Seems like a rod snapped or something. I really don't know yet. Happened on the way to get my girl and go to the track too so I don't even have a cool story of it blowing up and me winning the race still or anything

 

ive hit 140mph on mine on the m8 in glasgow 1am in the morning very good adrenilan rush lol
