Aright I'm gonna bring those stick on name tags for everyone next time. You know the ones that make you look like you're at an AA meeting or in the Special Olympics

Not too bad of a turnout guys... I should be there for the next one... as long as it's late enough in June. I'll have to plan my modifications around a meet, I hope to get my body completely done on my car before that meet... I figure there should be at least one vehicle that is a non cobalt, looking balt.

Yea, but surprisingly the Turbo balt was just as fast as a stock S/C. But for it being a puny little 2.2 with stock internals boosting only 7 LBS, it had some get up and go to it.

Just as fast as a stock S/C one? It seemed a little quicker than that. Unless he really was racing when me and him went, then it was not as fast as I thought it would have been.

Yea, so "Other Red Shirt Guy" let's start talking about setting up another meet. lmao. Oh, btw, I posted some of the pics we have on here on the main gallery page. And when is your front end supposed to be fixed? I got home yesterday and washed my car and fixed all of those stupid scratches and chips in the paint. Now you can't even tell. I was surprised at how well that touch up paint matched. So listen up those of you with scratches or chips in your paint. Go to your local Chevy dealer and pick up a thing of touch up paint and fix those darned things. The results are better than you would think.

Yea I know. I got home and the front of my car was literally black. If you have a pressure washer though, they come right off if you clean it right when you get home. Also, remember the stuff I told you about. The name is a little different though. But it still has black streak remover in the title and it comes in a white and red spray bottle. That works better than the old stuff I had. It's sold at wal mart or any other store of that nature.

Yea, I don't know why they are so bad or even where they come from. It's like you wake up one morning and the sky is black with them, and then they are gone. You have an AIM account or anything, there's like 20 ppl talkin to me on here and it's hard to keep up with refreshing pages and stuff. haha

2nd to the lower end of 3rd is when that car was fastest. Either way, for it to only be boosting 7 pounds on stock internals and ours to be boosting at least 12, it is quick.

Wow...Well, we were out on I-4 and I heard him punch it so I dropped gears and towards the top end of 3rd and going into 4th is when I started gaining on him. Maybe b/c mine has a limited slip that makes a difference....but to be that dramatic?? I don't remember, but was yours a G85? The one with the Recaro seats.

nah man...no G85, no recaros. Just GM Stage 2 and AEM intake. and it's hitting 17.5 at WOT and sometimes MORE!!! I've almost had the boost gauge pegged at 20 one night...
Sweet...do it to it...
