roll racing is kinda like...whiping before you poop.

Shibito

Do you really think you're gonna change anyone's mind on street racing though?

wish i could do this... lucky! lol so glad to hear when our little 2.0 4 banger rapes a big 8

BartSS

Yeah but u know what cobalts can do IF done right

Shibito

I can't even begin to explain how many people think I'm full of it when I tell them not to take Cobalts so lightly.

Friend of a friend has an IROC camaro. LNF owner walked up and asked to run, he said sure. I told him not to because he was going to get raped. His words were "By a 4 banger? No way in hell"

Cobalt raped him...

People say that because they can only win from a dig. My friends the same way. He loses rolls but does better at digs.

Cobalt_Daddy

cobalts have those too ********.. you must be a troll.

LittleMT

all right, let me think...hmm..

I've got heads up display!

This ones for you. I know someone personally that owns a Camaro SS 10' that ran 13.08 @ 108MPH Stock. With the modifications the OP has done... he would ass rape that. The Cobalt has more head room, leg room, and just a better daily driver. Plus it's cheaper. I'm not bias, I worked at a GM dealership so I know and have driven pretty much any common GM vehicle out there.

People say that because roll racing takes literally no skill at all, you are just letting the car do the work for you. Is it fun, sure, but one car is always getting a handicap. I would much rather win dig races.

Shibito

Well it also takes almost no skill to launch an AWD car so is having an AWD car like roll racing?

drag racing on the street lvl require no high lvl skills, keep eye on the road listen to rpm, shift.
get to the single digits and thats different.

Shibito

Ha! Launching on the strip requires less skill then launching on the street.

Lol you guys think LittleMT is being serious She is just messing around stirring the pot lol

Nice race OP. Next time start in the right gear!

Agreed. Its so much easier right after they spray the track.

BlueTurbo

I've seen plenty of people bog AWD cars bad out of the hole. So there is some semblance of skill involved.

I'll just leave these in here. that's my cobalt vs camaro.

‪Camaro SS L99 vs Cobalt SS LSJ Turbo Dig!‬‏ - YouTube



What the op is saying sounds about exactly right to me...

Shibito

And I think she should go back to her GTO



... She was the one with the GTO right?

LittleMT

look man, it's obvious the Camaro was just cruising around, not racing, minding their own buisness, probably driving to the Opera, not a care in the world..


the camaro wasn't racing.

ngsaccnh

You guys got to remeber and put in the picture the camero is all engine no tubro and supercharger (for now) i love my cobalt but take my supercharger off it has no chance want until the ZL1 comes out these stories are going to be the other way around with there 5.0 L supercharged engines.

Shibito

So what if the Cobalt's F/I? It's not a handicap to either car. If you engage in a race, you're racing what you have, no excuses for the outcome.

Edubs

What happened to "no replacement for displacement?"

Shibito

Well in the end the same amount of boost on 2 modern motors with the same size F/I device, the larger displacement motor will make more power.

That's besides the point though. If you're gonna race you can't complain about losing because your car is N/A.

Edubs

I was actually siding w/ you in this argument. Why complain about F/I on a 4 banger when you've got twice the cylinders?

Shibito

I'm not trying to make an argument with anyone. Just a discussion. And I don't think they're should be any complaining at all. You race what you have and accept the outcome.
