Fastest in AZ?

I just got back from speed world tonight, and I had some great runs. Out here in AZ it has been 103* at 11pm, and tonight was no exception.

Most of the other Cobalts are running anywhere from 14.6-15.1 on a good day out here with these conditions. I just got my new personal best here, and I am really impressed.

Here is how my slip reads:
Reaction time: 0.528
60': 2.356
330': 6.240
1/8th mile: 9.351
MPH: 78.294
1000': 11.976
1/4 mile E/T: 14.147
MPH: 101.426

My 60' times have never improved beyond the 2.3 range, so I need something to help me there. Maybe drag slicks.

The only car I lost to tonight was a Z06 corvette, but seeing how it has 505hp it was a no brainer. I beat a '06 STI, 2 neon SRT-4s, 2 mustangs, and a nitrous civic with a motor swap.

So far I think I am the fastest Cobalt SS in Arizona, correct me if I'm wrong.

what are your mods? do you have a torque brace?

I don't know if you're the fastest but you've got the fastest "recorded" time so far.

Good time! I would expect nothing less then that from your mods. I heard you raced david after he put your pulley on and you guys were close? Hey david tried to pm you but you box is full. let me know when you empty so i can see you what he wanted to send you!

Cool, I'm up for a challenge. Yes I have an Ingall's Torque Brace. But it is not adjusted properly at all, so I still have TONS of wheelhop.

I am running a Stage 3 plus Intake and Exhaust.

Yeah we raced. I seem to remember leaving him behind me even after I blew off the boost hose. But it was close enough to say that he could beat me if we raced a few times. It's probably a matter of launches more than the car. But you have to watch out. My car is a freak, and lays out a lot of power. Don't know how much, but with the same mods mine runs 0.8 secs faster than Kates.

See your motor is even 10% larger than mine, you should have a chance :-)

I just took mine to the track for the first time last friday and I was disappointed considering my mods. I think I need to upgrade axles so I can put drag slicks on. Also, I am still running a stock exhaust with what is likely a partially clogged converter (30K miles and had a rich condition for about 3K between stage 2 and stage2 re-cal). Enough whining, here are the numbers:

Reaction +.2051
60 ft. 2.3707
330 ft. 6.3980
1/8 ET 9.6000
1/8 MPH 77.13
1000' ET 12.2548
1000" MPH 93.79
1/4 ET 14.4289
1/4 MPH 103.45

Temperature was approximately 85 degrees with about 40% humidity. Track was Milan Dragway near detroit. I don't know what our elevation is, so I can't normalize to sea level.

next mods are going to be Header, catless downpipe and Corsa sport exhaust. Followed up by axles and drag slicks.
