Our SS/SC owning a Z06 at the track...

Smacked him off the line bad and he couldnt catch up. The C5 Z06 had intake and exhaust mods and runs consistent mid 12's. He wanted a look under the Cobalts hood to see what owned him...LOL

Who says a stage 2 Balt with a 2.9 pulley cant run 12's! With excellent driver technique and launching it is possible. Unfortunalty the Cobalt tripped the lights and I missed it on video, but the Z06 was .15 slower and I missed his damn time also!

you aren't going to run 12's with just stage 2 and a 2.9 pulley. I say that.

No it just missed the 12's, but with better tires its a gimme. I just wanted to post the video showing that a Z06 that dyno'd 401 rwhp can be beat with a Cobalt. It raised quite a few eyebrows when it happened.

Thats all folks, just wanted to get the embarassing video out there for some Vette owners....LOL

Do not confuse lack of a drivers skills as the car fault.

looks like the Vette screwed up the launch but at the end of the vid it looked like it was pulling hard

I think you purposely cut out the end of the vid though to turn this into a 935933 page thread.

lame... you can tell you were about to get passed at the end. no way your 250hp balt is going to pull a 400hp car, I dont care if your the best driver in the world, just not going to happen. the vette driver screwed up thats it. and you didnt run no 12 sec pass. other wise you would not of had it cut at the end, lets see some time slips...

Post your slip............. all I can say. Great launch and everything but that corvette driver sucked *****!! I've driven a stock c5 z06 and theres no way in hell and I really mean H E L L that a cobalt with stage 2 and a 2.9 pulley will beat that car, especially from a dig!!! Dude im sorry to say this and it hurts coming from an SS owner, but get your flaming suit on!!!!

Well I own a Z06 also and its far from stock engine and I can spin em shifting into 4th at the track if not careful, and a good Cobalt driver will whip a Vette whether its a Z06 or not out of the hole if the Vette even has the slightest loss of traction which damn common. Ive seen more than a handful of Z06 owners that cant get out of the hole worth a damn and have to play catch up and thats exactly why I posted that video showing how easy a Vette can lose the launch even when traction is halfway decent. You can hear the Vette was on it, didnt miss a shift and had to play catch up. You can hear the Vette shift into 4th and is still behind. He just blew the launch and I thought it was worthy of a video post. Time slip? I don't need no stinking time slip to show the Vette got owned all the way to the end with the video.

Flaming me? Like I really care if I get flamed by a bunch of kids

So what exactly are you calling bs on? Hard to call bs on an actual video showing the Vette got owned. I'm laughing my azz off here....I'm going to bed now, but I'm still laughing my azz off...

Why did he have to look under the hood. Clearly anyone could know they got beat by a supercharged vehicle. I heard that whine over the V8 exhaust.

That is all they really needed to know. I do not like popping my hood around others. Never have before the Cobalt and never will.

Just their are saying they don't believe it without proof. Hell I beat a Cobalt SS S/c at the track by half a car length. You know how many people would call BS. But it was a woman driver who just got the car. She was running high 15s with a 1+ RT. I was running .6-.8RTs and low 16s. It happened just once, but I physically crossed the line first only because I had a awesome RT and she missed 3rd.

Anything is possible...just have proof...now I have to find that timeslip I threw it somewhere with the Cobalt papers lol.
