Friendly drag strip challenge

Clear Image Automotive is having a "friendly" drag strip challenge between a local Solstice owner, to see just how well our exhaust products work up against a totally stock NA Solstice. ( same motor as in the Cobalt 2.4 & 2.0 SC )
I'm posting here as well, to invite the Cobalt crowed.
We would like to see Tony's car, but understand he just had a little parking lot accident ( not his fault ) So if you can make it Tony, Great! If not we understand
We are expecting a Solstice GXP factory turbo-ed car ( would be a nice match-up with a SC Cobalt and everyone's favorite challenge, an SRT4 ( with a stage 2 kit )
Tentative date ( weather permitting ) has been set for Saturday April 7th at Pacific Raceway's in Kent , WA just off of Highway 18
All are welcome to come out and either watch the fun or try out your own car on the strip for yourselves!
This is an open test & tune day
Anyone interested in trying the strip can bring anything you want to drive down the strip as long as it passes inspection ( making sure it is a safe vehicle, nothing broken, hanging loose or dripping fluids ).
Racing fuel will be available at the track if anyone needs it.

No I am not discrediting the Cobalt's.
I'm trying to invite more cars that have Clear Image products on their cars and anyone else that is interested in having some fun.
I figured that a good challenge for the Cobalt would be the Solstice GXP or the Dodge SRT4 which are both factory turbed cars.
