Couple pics of the other cobalts




Im still waiting on more pics and videos from other photographers so ill update as soon as they get uploaded

 

congrats man!

 

Sweet! I like all the different places you shot the videos with. Should combine them all, make a big video of the day kinda thing. Where do you find things like these, autocrosses i mean. Id love to try this but dont know where to start looking.

 

Never done any cone dodging myself, looks fun though.

Did somebody there bring a yaris?

 

what setup are you running ? tires, suspension mods ?

 

Nice pics. Quick question. Where do the letters derive from that are taped to the side of the vehicles? For some odd reason, when I saw NSMF on your car, the first thing that came to mind was, "Not safe MF'er"

 

Check out this site and maybe that will help
The Sports Car Club of America - Home
Should have a Florida chapter
Yeah there was all kinds of cars that people brought out haha you can AutoX anything you want.
Tires/mods: 215/45/17 S Drives on 17x8/9 LMs. Stance GR+ Coilovers

Its not the best setup if this is what your going to do alot but for me id raise the car up a tad bit if I was going to do it alot more or go to places like VIR,etc.

Its your class that the car is in like NSMF is Novice Street Modified FWD.

 

lol steelies

 

They have slicks on them lol Its his track wheels

 

Looks like fun. Great pix as usual

 

woot for having fun even if its not BecauseRacecar suspension... It's BecauseFuckYouI'mEnjoyingIt

pedders and konis equipped here

 

They give awards for Novice classes where you AutoX? lol

 

Nice runs. Now please go do a HPDE and have even more fun. You probably smiled for the rest of the day after the Auto-x right? HPDE will leave you smiling for a month.

they do the same by me but once you get one you are out of novice. gets everyone off to a good start.

 

That's why I liked racing the cobalt people were surprised by it

 

One day lol I plan to pull off some fender flares in the rear to get rid of that stretch or find 17x8 LM rears but good luck on that lol.
They gave out awards I guess for the same reason, Give new comers a good start and have something to look forward to. Here if you get first you cant run novice anymore.

 

Yeah even I was shocked lol im still xstatic about doing it and getting more into it.

 

custom flares? or like mikes flares where he just pulled the fender out a lot and made it smooth.

 

Either or, im wayyyy to broke right now to do anything major which is why the car hasnt been touched in almost a year besides the hub swap and LMs being put on. I might try custom flares and if that doesnt work then move onto fabbing up the fenders.

 

I understand that. I keep telling myself thats all till spring but I always end up buying **** I dont need.

 

psst road racing > auto x all day errday lol once youve been on big track auto x seems boring and a waste of tires lol

 

I would love to finish refurbishing the wheels, fix some body panels on the car and get the ZFR but yeah bills have been killing me. I may have to move to even get a good job which sucks because I love the beach haha

 

I was gona do the full body PDR but I dont think a car that will be a track car in a year or two really needs it. I figure everyone loves a race car no matter how many dings it may have. A show car has to be kept clean all the time. Gonna put that money towards a weld in roll cage

 

I have Kevin "Gestapo007" I can go to for PDR lol The varrstoens did a number on my rears so I was wanting to fix those. Hoping to get some new seats and harnesses this winter though for sure

 

Seats are currently my favorite mod. You get to enjoy them everyday

 

yeah lol good way to look at it
