a few races from sat nite

I actually got a few good races sat nite while cruzing out to sav with some friends I was 2 and 2 that night, first race was with a stock 09 cobalt ss/tc from a 40 roll and I believe I had him by about 4 car lengths or so by 110ish second race was agaisnt a lighten with pulley mods to up his boost ( I think they recorded it so if they did ill post the vid) but we went from a 40 roll and I made sure he jumped first sense it takes them alittle longer for it to kick in and go, but I won by about a car or alittle more, the third race was agaisnt a friends 08 s/c mustang gt from a 60 roll, I started and third and he let me jump first but was only about 2 cars ahead of me by the time we hit 120, then finally last race was agaisnt a 240 with a motor swap and boosted and from a 40 roll he got me by about 2 cars or so by 120 which I do have video of from his car and will post on here when I get off work. - just thought I would share with u guys alittle from my sat nite

Well like said above you can't see your sig but I did look in your garage. You have an empty bottle of "NOS" in your trunk? Whats up with that, WHY? Is it a N.O.S. kit or another brand Nitrous Oxide kit. Fast & Furious FTW

Yah in his VB garage... says he's running a 2.6 ring.. So that explains him pulling stock t/c's. (of course assuming its setup and tuned well)

Oh yah I agree a drivers race.. I was just saying based on his mods the story is at least plausible.

I was expecting to see "stage 2" or something.. Then I would call BS on beating the T/C's.

I guess ill have to fix that in my sig ill do that when I get home but the empty bottle was from my old car, I was gonna hook it up in the balt but decided not to so I sold it to a mustang owner who is using it. But my car does have the 2.6 with 60 pound injectors, meth, dual h/e, ported s/c, etc. And I don't see it as much of a drivers race he is the third ss/tc I beat and the other ones where worse then him

seems believable with your mods, I'm close to the same setup as you but with a 2.8 ring and I put around 2 cars on stockish ss/tc's.

Uh I wouldn't expect you to, the only thing that can prove it is a video or dyno numbers showing more/equal #'s to not believe a drivers race.

Keep posting nonsense, you're just making yourself look worse.

modded Lightning + heavily modded 240 > stock TC

hence, the fanboy call out

get off your high horse, a heavily modded ss/sc can easily take a ss/tc. Hell I can beat stockish ones with my 2.8 ring and supporting mods.

I raced a Stockish SS/SC in my wife's GLI and won. It happens. It could also just be shitty drivers too though. (In the SS/SC vs SS/TC discussion.) A stock SS/TC in most cases puts down over 245WHP and 250Ftlbs of torque. So a good driver in an SS/TC should edge out a 250-260WHP SS/SC with 220ish ftlbs of torque. If both drivers are of the same skill level.

what the hell is ur problem dude, im not on any high horse im actually agreeing that u took it. And yes if it is in break in it runs on reduced power so u dont kill it. Sorry if u think im all high and mighty cause of a feature gm built into the tc, ur the one that is on ur high horse cause u have a really bad attitude about people thinking a tc can take u.

and if can beat them good for u.
i know if ud take me id at least loose with honer and say good job, which im sure is beyond u. U sound like one of those excuse makers who thinks his car is the **** and can take everything. Ya thats right u sound like a ricer civic driver.

Proud and arrogant jackass.
