got eaten!

so i lost my first race tonight , not used to this front wheel drive crap yet (previously owned a 300zx na) as i only have this car one month now. i have an 07 cobalt and i got eaten by a 92 hatch back civic with h22 intake exhaust and suspension/tires. he ate me by like 4 cars from a dig man i suck at launching this thing, from a 80km roll he had me by just under a car, i was at just passed his back bumper almost at his door. coolest guy tho we pulled over and chatted a bit and he gave me some tips lol..he also told me he ran 13.5 at the track recently and his best was a 13.2. oh man im doing work this spring for dam sure now lol. hey guys hurry up and figure out a bigger blower for this dam thing lol hahaha jks. anyways it was fun as hell tough tonight. thats my story

a 92 civic hatch is gonna run 17's stock...intake and exhaust arent gonna shave 4 seconds off of the 1/4 mile.

Yea for sure. I would not be surprised if it was a turbo charged running on stock internals at around 7-10psi. My freind has a hatch back civic running a large greedy turbo @ 8psi on stock internals. Hes got exhaust and some type of controller to tune everything. He runs low 13s.

Mid 13s is pretty common with that swap in the 2door civics.
