my friend who drove his mustang and ran 14.5s all day drove my car n said it pulled close to what his stangs did (he had 3 5.0 fox body mustangs and they were all 14.0-14.5 except his 4th was runnin 12.2s to 12.7s)
im not going to lie but when i saw my time i almost pissed my pants and the 15.7 i thot was slow cuz of what most of my friends were saying that i should run and some kid i knew with a stock tsi talon (factory claim 15.2) bearly inched away from me on a 35 roll to 100. but after i saw all the times of the other balts and g5s at the track runnin 15.9-16.3 i thot my friends were retarded til i ran the 15.2

if you can film your car doing 14.9 in the 1/4mile with your current mods(rims, tires, springs) i will still be blown away. 14.9 Video & Slip should lay this thread to rest.
dont edit the slip leave the car numbers on it, so we can compare the #on the car and the # on the slip.

and i am also wondering where who ever is gettin 2900lbs from (unless the calculator is set at 2900lbs) where it claims from gm that they weigh 2681 (www.chevrolet.com/cobalt/specifications/) under dimensions so with driver (me) it would be 2801. and im not sure what model they are going by with the 2681...?

well yea, i was planning on videotaping the numbers and saying them outloud to everyone in the video. but b4 you said a 14.9 with the exhaust mod and you would be amazed but now your saying with only springs,tires and wheels. im not concerned bout the maybe 1hp gain from the muffler but i just dont want contraversy (sp?) if i did use it and u wanted me not to. so im just trying to clairify what i am allowed and what i am not, dont think im trying to be an ******* by this, im just trying to keep us both on the EXACT same page

Some people will believe anything.
And on that note I have 2 nice bridges I'm trying to unload, great money making oppertuaty here folks! Think of the possible tolls you could collect! MILLIONS if not BILLIONS to be made! Here's some pics of the bridges! And hey I'm posting pics so it MUST be true!
I also have a few more but these are the nicest.

and i wasnt asking to race anyone. i have no license til new years cuz of racing and speeding tickets lol but im not risking driving that far w/o a license. but what i said is that anyone is allowed to come drive my car at the track. i mean im puttin an open offer for who ever to beat on my car at Pittsburgh Raceway Park in New Alexandria, Pa pretty much
i know it cant run dry, but it can run low on fluids. i was on E after each run and filled it up with my gas can in my buddies truck the day i was at the track and then went to sheetz right down the road afterwards... i didnt think me (120lbs) and fluids could weigh 220lbs but idk

yea, too bad the slips were all before i got a nitrous kit... plus if you would look it is for parts because i do not have a full kit. and plus i just picked up the kit about a month ago, before i got laid off and it is a 75 shot dry kit. from what i heard my car wont compensate fuel for a 75 shot, that was said by adam coleman: njhk and i still never had the bottle filled. i still have the payment receipts for when i bought the nitrous items from someone and the receipts are from paypal

OK i think im going to prove a point this week at the track, Im heavier im sure bc of kit and wheels but id like to match these numbers (not really b/c its not possible). But if worse comes to worse i will buy an exhaust and intake for my wifes base ls and see if a 15.2 is possible hell its stock wonder if it runs 15s? Although its a 07 so it has 2hp more or something stupid than a 06ls like mine?

those hp calculators should take tq into the estimate in my opinion but they are showing that a stock should run a 16.665 which a lot of ppl on here or that i kno say they run faster than that

they will be up as soon as i can get someone to take me to the track with them and have them drive my car there... it will be before the track closes since its claiming to switch TnT to saturdays starting oct 20th and nov 10th is last day
yea, i dont have an arguement with that but you are saying most. and ive seen most autos run 16.2 all day breaking 16.0 here and there and the 5speeds were runnin 16.1-15.9 consistent as hell

idk if it matters but the same day that i was running TnT they had box/no box racing with quite a few low sec cars that were burning out then backing back up to line up... ??? that do anything better with traction? because i had no wheel hop and great traction. and if there are a few members on here that are in the PRP area i will try to setup a day for us all to go up so others on this forum can verify my car is only modded what ppl want it to be or that it is stock and to verify the video and all that good stuff so i have more proof but since i agreed to do all this i dont want to hear ppl trashin me more til after the video and all that but i kno it is still expected for ppl to do so
oh i completely understand what you all are saying but i know im not lying and i guess ill just have to prove it cuz im trying to get rid of a few parts and ppl stopped their interest when i got neg rep so i need a good rep to have ppl trust me... btw what is ST?
street tires?

oh no no, im not saying me... im saying the "track built racers" that were running box/no box racing that day were doing that with their 12+ inch slicks running 10s to 7s in the quarter... im just saying that their rubber laying on the track right before i got to run, if that would matter with how well i was catching traction or not... i did lay a lil too much tire when i tried launchin at 4.5K which i didnt even stop to get that slip cuz i kno it was BAD

Hmmmm....So now your not exactly sure what you ran? But I thought you had a slip! And now your saying maybe you messed up and it was a 15.4 or 15.5 or 15.7 well those . whatevers matter ALOT! Look at the list of the fastest 2.2's and what do you see? I see one breaking into the 14's useing an intake, exhaust and spraying. Then I see one running almost a 15.4 and he's runnig an intake and exhaust. Hell everone on that list in the 15's has mods and so do some 16 second cars! And these are all the same type car YOU OWN! So please if you wouldn't mind telling us, HOW exactly does a stock 2.2 run times that everyone else has to be modded to get near?
And before you try picking on my math perhaps you should re-read what I said cause your reading comprehension skills are lacking.
All that having been said I'm still saying your full of it, cause as I've said before a stock 145 hp car weighing in at anything more then 2200 pounds WILL NOT RUN A 15.2!
Go find a psysist to argue with cause your just not getting it.
Sorry you can't change physics no matter how hard you try to.
