how is not knowing about that single fact lack of automotive knowledge? that's like a surgeon not knowing how to preform dental surgeory... he's still a surgeon. So because I didn't know ALL 08-09 SSs were TC I have an overall lack of automotive knowledge? Great premise to an even greater conclusion!

and yes, the war stories section of your car thread where you can make any claims without proof IS serious business

You're a teenager, aren't you?

You're automotive knowledge is weak! If it wasn't you wouldn't be writing this bullshit, which you continue to do...

Seeing as a Porsche Cayenne is capable of a mid-high 13 second 1/4 mile...and the Cobalt SS, with a good driver can do 13.8s...

What more proof do you want? Is this story that improbable or are you just stupid?

If doesnt matter to you, why do you keep talking? He shared his experience, you dont have to like or believe it...just drop it...why keep talking, its not like he said he raced a Z06 or something. Its a mid 13sec suv vs a high 13 sec car...who cares...

Ok, and the point of that comment was...? Why am I the one taking **** when there were like half a dozen other guys not buying this either?

whatever I'm done posting in the war stories now anyways... just leads to pointless arguments...

There was you and one other. Maybe I will find a drag strip on my way down to the Tail of the Dragon next week.

i buy it. it's possible. Just unlikely is all i'm saying. I'm just doing my usual thang letting some of the idiots here (not you) know that just because one person beat _____ doesn't mean that is going to be the norm. a while back, somebody hung with a termin thru third gear in a bolt on ss/sc. termi had bolt ons. bolt on termi = 11 sec car. bolt on cobalt = MAYBE 12's. most likely 13's. doesn't mean it didn't happen, just means the cobalt driver got REAL luckym

I think what people need to realize is that a half a second is a half a second...take a look at your watch for a moment and think about that...

Seriously...sure..in quarter-mile a half second is quite abit, but it only takes one f-up to take care of that. Its not like the story is unbelievable. Hell, I've seen a ton of sti's and evo's at our track put down 15sec quarters...its amazing how many people really cant drive, standard or automatic!

I'm just saying don't expect those kind of results all the time.
Now the most you've seen is a 104.5 trap

P.S. I'm telling the town of Cayuga, Ontario that you called it a mine shaft. Snnnnap!
