He won't have the car before im tuned which is before I pull the car out of storage in the spring. If he finds out cool other words if I race someone and they ask I will tell otherwise not going to worry about it.

Cobalt's have a turbo. If they didn't they'd run 15's. Please don't say idiotic things like that

Not a big difference but the Mach 1 has been proven to be the stronger car stock vs stock especially from a roll. Now after a '05+ GT gets a tune all bets are off.

Don't hustle unless it's for money. And don't give any bs excuses if you lose. If you lose, your car's slower, big ******* deal, don't cry about it. This wasn't just to the OP, it was to some other kids too, lol.

If you get a tune before then, then you should beat him. Especially with him having to learn about what tire spin is.

Yea the 5spd 4v mach's are definately faster then the 3v GT's
