Thumbs up New Best For Cobalt: Video

Went to Milan this Sunday. Ran a new Best.
Stock 14.5 & 98. It keeps coming down, i wannt run a 14.4 or lower.

I ran against another Cobalt SS S/C. Awsome racing.
Guy was a real cool, and friendly. Said he was from Michigan. Auborn Michigan i think?
He said he reads the forums, so if yo read this, Speak up man. We gotta go racing together sometime!

I made a nice video of a few runs.
Everyone check it out (sorry for movie size):

Nope, i dont have recaros or LSD. I have everything else though. Inserts, XM, Runroof, ONStar... all that good stuff. But no LSD.

I'm about 90% sure i can get that to a 14.4 flat or under.

The one thing i will say, is that the entire race for that car at the track happens in the first 60ft.

NICE runs man ... now that I have seen how to launch the car I am sure I will put down lower times than my so far best of 14.9 ... in that last run did you warm up the tires or leave em cold?

Sweet!! It gives me optimism that I can do the same with the non-LSD. Every time I go to the track it is packed and I have averaged 4 timed runs on the 3 occasions I have been to the track. I can't seem to get into a grove. I'll crack a 14.7 one time then a 15.1 the next. I guess I'll find out this spring but I may have the GM stage 2 by then. A 14.7 may be as good as it gets for me, stock.

Upcoming Test & Tune Dates
Oct:
Sat 29
Sun 30
Nov:
Sat 05
Sat 12

I Am going to Milan Dragway this Saturday or Sunday (90% Sure) if weather permits.
Test & Tune is from 12 (noon) - 6:00

Prices:
20$Car+Driver
10$ Crew/ Spectator

T&T is awsome, though unperdictable.
I've seen people get anywhere from 6-17 Runs in a day.
If someone breaks down, its just a huge time stall.

The best day to go would be Saturday because theres no other events going on.
Sunday they will be having Gamblers Race $35, Box, No Box, & Bike
Plus Test and Tune

P.S. A not to anyone thats modded, If you run under a 14 second 1/4 Mile time, they require you to have a helmet.

Can you post a link to this video again? I have some Focus guys that don't believe the SS is a 14 second car.
