Cobalt SS vs 1990 Corvette

I knew that a stock lnf would handle this car because I did research on it before I talked to this guy, but prior to talking to him he stated that a 4cyl cobalt will never beat his corvette lolz. Its not even a ZR1 edition for that year, but even of it were I still think I would have beat that as well.
Enjoy the vid.........................................

Gah. My friend is semi like this.

The power, weight thing doesnt regester with him.

I honestly think, he thinks, his new tundra would beat my balt.

Yeah I also had a buddy that has a v6 charger & he thought it was the cats meow. He also doesn't understand power to weight ratio either but some ppl are not open minded enough to have things explained to them. I will be the first to admit that I don't know everything nor do I pretend to. Some ppl out there try to act like they are god & have all knowledge of anything & everything. For example the guy in this vette Lmao, I was still nice enough to not laugh in his face & told him it is in great condition for being 20+yrs old. I coulda been an ass but what's the point. I got enough out of recording it & being able to say I beat a vette. Even though its not somthing feirce like a z06 still v8 vette that got pooped on badly by a near stock balt .

Ya I love when the V8 guys talk down on are cars and say "what with that little 4 cylinder" I have a guy at my work that drives a stock auto c4 vette and thinks he will destroy me from any speed. I would rape the **** out of him but he wont run me or any of my buddys that call him out.

Doubtful.
There was a 130hp difference between the stock C4 and the ZR1 for 1990.

Sorry bud but its a 125hp diff, the ZR1 is also heavier then its underpowered sibling for that year & it only has another 20ft lbs of tq so I am pretty sure I stand correct. Heres the link to back it up, On a roll I think it would be close but bench racing will never solve anything.

Whos being cocky? Would rather facepalm you
He could have just said 125 instead of 130 whats the point of giving false imformation? Either way oh well I would run a ZR1 if I could find one around here till then its all E-Talk and # speculation.

I talk down on my own car all the time, then end up raping whoever i was talking to... most of the time. "Man you to fast" is what i here and i just laugh to myself knowing what "FAST" really is (referring to a 190mph in twin turbo vette as well as an Ariel Atom).

1990 Corvettes have less power than a SS/TC what did you expect.

Sorry but no way would you have beat the early 90's zr1, you obviously have no idea what that car is or how quick they were. Thats 180mph car stock, and they got there quick.
0-60 4.6
sub 13 sec 1/4 miles

How sir would you destroy that? Sounds more like itd be a race
