What did you guys run last year at race city?? I'm planning on going out there this year and seeing what my car can do after i do much much more to work too it. I'm hopping my car will be in the 13's... What about you guys?

 

I hope to get either low and I mean low 14's or High 13's when I go out this year. Never went last year but i'll make up for it this year.

 

Im a track virgin, lol. We'll see what I can do this summer!

 

I got low 14's consistently with 104 mph as my highest trap speed.

 

shooting for a 16.6....

 

That makes two of us.

 

Ran a bunch of 14.1's last year with bent shift fork, hoping to get 13.999@100.00mph since I only got 99.6 mph last year also.
Would like to hit a 1.9x 60 ft also, but that we will have to see.
Looking forward to racing the stg.2 cobalts, good races.
Likely going to head up to edmonton this year to race Jmac88 if he's in for it once also.
I ran a 13.7@101 there in 2005 with 10whp less than I have now and street tires, so I'm hoping for a 13.5@103 or so this year.
See you boys out there...

 

shouldn't you be well into the 15s stock?

edit, yea i saw you're times in your sig.

 

err...those times are for the 5 speed coupe I had.

5000+ Density altitude is a HP killer---thats why I think a 16.6--- new car (4dr auto) is a bit of a dog up here

 

We should take a few runs together! I think we'd be pretty evenly matched.

 

14.0 @ 104 Race City. 2.23 60" Stock Tires.

Come on Kaiso... u can beat that....

 

hmm we'll have to find out! ive never been to the track with this car! hopefuly i'll have a few goodies by then as well!

 

I'm a thinkin so Jebb, Yuk Yuk

 

I'm all for it. Close races are the most fun. We just have to make sure we get lined up right, as it was quite busy last year and alot more difficult to race who you wanted.
I look forward to racing lots of you guys.
A few lightly modded srt-4's, the new mustangs, and hopefully one or two of the new eclipses that always drive like crazy on the streets.
Maybe there will even be a few civic si's out for the unmodded cobalt ss/sc to pick on.


Did you ever got to edmonton Cody?

 

So what happend with the car and slicks did it brake on the first try?

 

I thought the axle broke attempt #2?
Don't remember, unfortunately I wasn't there...

 

I'm sure he'll chime in, but I'm pretty sure he broke on the second try.
I raced him on his first pass with the slicks, and luckily for me, he bogged off the line.

 

I know the average stock cobalt ss/sc times at race city is 15.3 I did 15.1 and I know another guy did 14.9

 

broke an axle second pass lol

first pass i took real easy to see how much the slipcks would grab, and the grabbed hard so i bogged pretty bad, second pass i launched at 2300-2500 rpm trying to slip the clutch and she caught pretty hard on the drivers side tire and the slick combined with the Stage 4 6-puck clutch = snapped axle lol......

on the bogged run, i ran a low 14.1 .... even though i bogged, i was able to go WOT in 1st which before without slicks, i was never able to do...

 

I am planning on a 12.99 or a 14.2 depends if I get slicks and stage 2 axles.
