Fontana will be open Feb 28. I'm heading down but most likely will run my GTO. A couple of friends are going and my brothers as well. Friends have a R/T challenger, 01 SVT Cobra & 06 GTO. My brothers have a 98 LS1 Z28 & an 05 GTO. If I do take my Cobalt, my only fair match would be the Cobra. He ran a 9.2 @ 78 at Irwindale. That same night I ran a 9.3 @ 80.

I want to see your car run in the 1/4. I'm sure you'll probably trap 110+. I saw the video of you nailing 160+, looked pretty darn fast.

I'm trying to talk my dad into goin but he has to work. I used to go to pomona a lot with him doesn't feel right to go without you know. I'm down for either one though pomona is more expensive but closer so it all depends. I'll see where most you guys are goin.

Famoso is a great track. You'll definetly pull a lower time. That was some good computer generating you have going there.

I guess my gms3 PCM is pretty good after all. I got a 9.31 @ 80.05 mph w/ a 2.3 60'. As usual, traction for FWD cars sucks. My PB at that track was a 9.1, that's when on a magical night, traction was good and got a 2.2 60'. I can't remember the et. My cobalt hates irwindale, but my gto loves it. It grips good any time I go. Hopefully one day our cobalts will get some traction. Has anyone had any luck with traction their on their cobalts at irwindale?

A good clutch, DR's & stage 1 axles with mounts should do the work.
