Tried straight line racing and still hated it. Not for me, sorry. I don't really care about perfecting my clutch/gas technique.

I'm not an auto-xer. I prefer the real race track.

 

Ha... well to the auto-x'ers... the drag strip is nice to explore what those gears past 2 do....

 

you definitely use the wheel when you shift into third and your looking at the wall beside you.

 

Are they new? If not how old and how many miles?

 

about 2 miles, age wise i have had them since september of last year but they have been sitting in my basement since november

 

Are they a direct fit to the stock one? I dont know much about them and how much they are new so if you have an idea on how much u want let me know. What kind are they. I am pretty excited my balt came back from the shop today and my Eibach springs came in the mail also. : )

 

yeah they fit right in heres a link to them http://www.turbotechracing.com/produ...idproduct=4944

 

So we should do some realy big get-together sometime when spring breaks and there's no more of this winter ****. Get everyone together and get pics of the line of cars. That'd be great. My girl got her Cobalt at the end of summer, so she missed all that ****. We should do something though for sure.

 

saw a red ss/sc today going down 2nd avenue and turning up towards greenfield

 

That is usually every weekend in the spring/summer/fall.

 

Any time I heard of one it was at a bar or something. haha

 

Alicia you should get the pics up of both meets up at Quaker Steak and Lube. Those were decent sized meets. Im pretty sure you were the one with all the pics. I think the first one we had like 24-29 Cobalts/Redlines? Something like that. I think the first one was bigger. Highlights of that one would be telling the cop that it was coincidence that we all had the same car, getting from Robinson to downtown in like 5 minutes, 20 plus superchargers in the tunnels at 1 time, and the 100 mph pwnage you put on me while weaving in and out of cars on the parkway

 

If i recall it was more like 12-14... because i remember seeing the picture at somebody's place... Al's maybe.

and Alicia does not speed... dont speak that blasphemy!

 

You recall incorrectly. We had 19 cars total I belive.

Haha, peer pressure.



12 in the picture, we had 19 total though cause we had Shaun's Mach1 and a couple of the Cobalt people left early. cause I remember we had 19 cars and 22 people.

 

aww damn you beat me to it

And silver is still the sexiest

 

Lawl the redline is there...it was still supercharged then

 

fixed.

 

Still is.

 

Any of you Ecotec guru's know anything about the cam profile on the '08 2.2's? I read somewhere that it was supposedly different from previous years, and on mine I'd swear the powerband is slightly different. Seems like it comes in just a hair later than my blue one did and pulls harder when it does...

 

Cam profile changed in 07. I don't remember the specs but they made it very slightly milder.

 

Wasn't aware that a 2.2 had a powerband? I will wait for Al's professional response.

 

haha

 

You know sub 14 sec means it runs 13.999 or lower right...i think you were trying to diss me but english owned u instead

 

Most cars have them when ALL the followers are installed.

 

I take back my statement, I was just informed the 2.2 in question has racing stripes.
