u add him to the wrong list? i dont see his name on the stock 2.4 cobalt list? he name should be right beside mine

also wheres his timeslips? thought we needed that to be on the list

 

Ill take pics of them.. i didnt even know about a list!

 

He should be faster than you when I get done with him

 

whenever i pull $300 out of my ass, ill be on your doorstep the next day Blueberry

 

be ready for some fun! and it's not $300

 

we see about that come next summer, i should have a few bolt ons by then and obviously will have more then 2 weeks driving experience with a 5 speed lol.

 

I checked out the track list, fastest times page.
That stock 2.4 that claimed a 14.9... makes me want to call BS

 

he has a 5 spd and posted more then enough proof

 

nice run on the 2.4. Next time go on the the last yellow and watch your reaction time drop.

Reaction Time is a seperate time from the Elapsed Time, unless of course your bracket racing, then everything is counted....

 

roger that. I just didnt see a slip posted. Ill search better.

edit: Found his post. I guess its my lack of skill at shifting. Still new to manual, not even a year yet. Maybe he got lucky and got the factory freak also! either way, thats pretty awesome. 14.9.

 

Keep in mind that reaction time is only going to help you if you're bracket racing. If you are going for quarter mile times, your reaction times don't have any bearing there.

 

don't worry my best time is 15.4 and i'm modded 5 speed lol

 

So the trick to the track, is traction. Correct?

I ran with my traction off, 15.6. Wheels spun a little in 2nd.. nothing bad though.
Traction on. 15.8.. wheels didnt spin in 2nd, but it felt like the car wasnt pushing as hard as it could.

I was also shifting at about 5500rpms in 1st and 2nd, then running third all the way through.

 

traction control eh? didnt know that came with the 2.4 SS

 

Ive got the button in mine. Press it to turn traction control off, hold it in to turn ESC (electronic stability control) off. Just no launch control, or competitive mode.

something new in the '08?

 

TC will kill you if you spin into second kill alot of your power
