Yes people, it makes a difference in straight-line acceleration. A G85 Cobalt should technically be quicker than a non-G85 Cobalt on the drag strip.
but has it?

You can't just say that because the G85 cars are not noticeably quicker that they don't do anything. There are a million variables in play when you are at the track. YOu can' arbitrarily decide that based on the times people post here that a G85 car is no quicker than a non-G85 car. If you took a G85 car, and a non-G85 car and ran each down the same track, one after another with the same driver all night, then piled the times up, I'd be willing to bet you'd start to see some difference. Maybe the G85 car wouldn't be much quicker, but it should at least be more consistent because of the advantages that it offers in hooking the car up.

agreed but can you say you honestly see a better showing of straight line performance in the g85 cobalts?
