hey on that note. i have 350 bucks worth of credit with westjet. if anyone is flying anywhere they can have it. but it works like this:
it cost 50 to change the credit from my name to someone else's, so that leaves 300 bucks worth of credit. if you pay me 200 bucks i will give you my 300 buck credit. so basically i will pay for 100 bucks of your flight if you take the credit from me....

LoL well I can now say something to you since u said soemthing of interest...

All I can say is the drama is not worth it... if dude has a problem tell him that not only did u like her but u fucked her so hard she never stopped screaming your name... if he doesnt punch you well obviously he didnt care that much and say see Motha F*ker now drop ur drama and realize that a bitch is still a bitch and life moves on so GET THE *** OVER IT!

As for talking smack to you ex... well I would just smack him for that for acting like a Getto Bitch and trying to start more drama... like are we still in highschool here?

As for the job thing dude ur like what a block or 2 from BOWEN personelle staffing they have some of the best contract jobs around... print off a resume and go over there and talk to em Im sure they can help you look (passively) for a new perm. job... shop around theres lots out there its just a matter of taking the step and talking to them.

Are we sure that it is a 1/4 mile or is it a 1000' track? There are alot of 1000' tracks in the US. The other thing is what elevation was he at and what was the AD at the time. I have seen time slips from Miami where moded SS/SC were running in the low 13s at almost sea level. Was a good run and not impossible but I don't think a Stock SS/TC with 260 fly wheel HP would make those kind of times. Here in Calgary my cobalt with a CM clutch, GMPP exhaust, Short throw and stage II only ran a 14.1s pass. Now last year there were Cobies and Ions runing 13.6 to 13.7s passes at our elevation but highly moded (Ed-Sidejam (ion redline with drag bags, slicks, motor, exhaust and tune), Chris-Spaz (highly modified motor, tuning exhaust, cams and tuning).

Like I said it is possible but I would have to suspect some power mod. In the reviews of that vid someone said that he talked to the guy and he said he used a 50 shot of N2O.

Here is the guys quote:

JohnnyInsano (12 hours ago)

I was there the day this video was shot, and the guy driving this cobalt told me that he was using a sneaky pete 50 shot of nitrous during this run.


Who knows. If it is indead a stock SS/TC then I would say nice run.

Running a 50shot of N20 wouldn't really do very much if anything on the LNF......has to be tuned, and elevation doesn't matter to the LNF, GM stepped up on this car and made the ECU to adapt the power to stay the same no matter wat elevation, i can dig up the articles if u insist. Either way, "Marion" is 100% stock and ran 13.6 with his ss/tc in Ontario, which leads me to believe that 13.56 stock is also possible.

i like the look dood but i won't have Cobalt on mine like that, tho i do like the look alot. I doubt I'll be doing anything with my lights for a long time if at all. I'm even debating skipping the SS in the middle and leaving the trunk entirely debadged with just that red outlined bowtie on the rear lip.

nah I want the badge itself to still stick out off the trunk a cm or so, however the stock bowtie is now or maybe a little thinner but not by much.

so anyone else getting really sick of the way the roads are and how stupid people are. i see countless people riding everyone's ass', people speeding everyone, cutting across 3 lanes of traffic just to get a few cars ahead. that and i'm tired of having to ride my clutch and ease the gas just so i don't slide and just spin the tires. oh and the tally for accidents in yesterdays 24hrs was 400+ accidents. what ever happened to common sense and staying back a few extra car lengths and gradually coming to a stop.

//end rant.

on a brighter note still no accidents for me .

and thanks james i feel special that you just had to add me to your mini-bash lol
