Chevy Cobalt SS… Anyone?

Well this past weekend the Chevy Cobalt put a nail in the coffin’s of its competitors by winning the 2008 Manufacturers Championship, Driver Championship and the Team Championship in the Grand Am KONI Challenge ST season.

Headed by Georgian Bay Motorsports and ace driver Jaime Holtom, the Chevy Cobalt SS ran laps around its competitors, even though it ran with heavier restrictions than the cars it competed with. Now for the facts: The Chevy Cobalt won 5 out of the 10 races, grabbed 3 pole positions and 4 fastest laps, all while leading more laps than any other manufacturer at 291 laps. Holtom also became the youngest champion in Grand Am history so we would like to send out a special congratulation to him.

I bet it rattled like heck inside haha.

But good job SS. At least it's good at the "fast" and "cheap" part of the "fast - cheap - reliable" triangle.
