15.2? That's a SS/NA at best. Or a SC that blew the motor 1/2 way down the track.

I thought this was me when I read the title!

I lost to one last September at Milan, I ran a 13.8 because I couldn't get a good launch to save my life that night and the truck ran a 13.6. I thought I was going to blow his doors off. I wish I had the timeslip still.

I'm not going to pretend I'm a great driver that happened to get a poor time, but damn that truck was fast. I did start gaining very quickly on him by the end though.

That was with my tune too which dynoed at 300whp and 331 ftlbs

1. Cobalt is a 2.4 or a 2.2

2. Truck is tuned

3. Truck probably launched 4WD


Quick truck yes...fast no.

yea that truck looked to launch pretty darn good while the cobalt just spun, either way i think truck driver > cobalt driver. i don't hear any whine but my guess is it's an '06-'07 SS/SC because it does look like there's SS badges on the bottom of the door

96 trap vs 102. That truck would walk the crap out of the Balt from a roll too.

Sorry about the mistake on location, The truck has a livernois tune other wise stock! It could be an S/C Balt with an exhaust and otherwise stock as it's a 96 MPH trap as the N/A's dont really trap that well. Even the ones on here that do beat the ET Still dont usually trap that high! without running much better ET's

This. The trap is slow as hell. Only thing the truck had was a good 60 ft.
