I agree but it is what it is. Funny how he got 10 votes to beat me by 2 in the last like 45 minuites the poll was open. Guess I should do a "campaign" if I realize at the end I'm not going to win haha.

That poll was like the one where someone asked who the best tuner was and I got the most votes... I would jump in numbers by like 5-10 lol .

I'm speaking of the one where Matt came in complaining lol

It's all good.

I was going to link it last night, but I figured I'd leave it up to you to continue to embarrass me

meh.

My car is fun where it is;
at the end of the day it's my daily driver.
If I start really sinking money into a car, it will be to rebuild this one;


Being an original manitoba car, it was bought with an advanced case of rust back in 1995, and has been parked for a couple years awaiting my hard earned monies

That's not to say I won't do anything more to the cobalt, but I don't have any plans to do nearly as much as you.....







for time being.

Ya it was a damn good run. Didn't help I was wheel hoping badly. I think I could have actually beat my current best time if I didn't that race.

have you dynoed your car lately?

the MPH would have me think you were putting more down than that charger...

that charger surely isn't losing 100hp in drivetrain loss...

nuff said?

If you won COTM youd get the 5 minute tune package. Now you get the 25 minute data log package.

Coilovers and wheels yep lol thats it,

thats like me complaining if I lost that he was just a TVS and a tune :p

Either way love the car, Would have done the same performance mods if I had kept my LSJ. As far as votes I could have posted on Cobalt Nation and won by a landslide but that would have been a ******* thing to do. FCOTM has always been about popularity and always will be so nobody should be shocked.

I'm not shocked one bit. I actually thought you were going to kick my ass much worse lol. As for it being a popularity contest. For the most part that's true. But honestly, maybe 1/4 of the people that actually voted for me I talk to...
