I was thinking, I would like to see a Cobalt SS/SC running a HHR SS.

 

why, so that the HHR can get its ass waxed?

 

hahaha

 

Damn id like to see that

i have has alot of fast cars in the past then i had a baby and bought the HHR, and i know its a dog but i raced a cobalt ls both auto trans he never left me, stayed with him all the way to 100mph.

 

Don't think so? Or do you just want to see an HHR get worked real bad?

big difference though

 

I have drove both cars and to tell you the truth the auto HHR SS felt way faster than the cobalt ss/sc. Maybe im wrong though jus my opinion. i have yet to drive the manual HHR SS.

also big difference from 200hp compared to 260

Iam talking stock vs stock considering theres no real mods for the HHR SS yet.

 

It's not really 200.. and it's not really 260...
You can never trust what the factory rates the power at...

 

That would be an interesting race, I would not mind racing a ss/sc driving a hhr ss, i am more than sure i would nial its ass to the ground.

 

I will tell you what for being and HHR those things will scoot.

 

arent they like gm"s version of the pt cruiser?

 

Sure

 

Not trying to magazine race-but just for reference (Both cars are 5-speed manual):

Zero to 100 mph: 14.4 sec
Zero to 130 mph: 29.8 sec

Seems like it'd be a driver's race to me. Both drivers being equal, however, the Cobalt is definitely the winner.

 

Thats pretty close. It could be a drivers race.....

 

Two things that make it a done deal for me, assuming the LSJ driver isn't a retard.

1) '200' vs '260' - more like, 210-220 vs 245 MAYBE (dynojet whp)
2) 2900 lbs vs 3300 lbs.

Need I say more?

 

ahaha... not to be an ass but i think this would be the case.

 

I have to disagree and even if the cobalt did win I know the HHR wouldn't be getting waxed, personally i think it would be a drivers race. you say waxed like the balt can pull 4 or 5 cars lengths on it. I have raced plenty of sc balts in my old Camaro I ROC-Z and stock they arent super quick, but i was also laying almost 400 rwhp down. Overall i think it would be a good race.

 

evenly matched for sure.

 

The HHR is a tank compared to the balt thats for sure.

 

There's the key right there to why that car ran w/a ss/sc. A stock Iroc-z will not even be close. I know bc i have both.

 

wasnt stock 383 stroker motor with 6 speed richmond trans and 3:73 Rear end edelbrock headers and borla cat back exhaust, i completely rebuilt the powertrain. it aslo depends what motor came in your iroc 305 or 350 the 350 was ***** to the walls, with yours being a 86 i think that one had the 305 right?

 

id like to watch it

 

2 things, every mod available for the turbo solstice and sky is available for the HHR SS, as they have the same motor, and i will say imo, hp has nothing to do with it, its the torque you get from a turbo set up, the ss/sc have junk torque.....

 

Yea mine is a 305...I've also ran the 350 Iroc's. Either way i know what the ss/sc has against again them. Plus with you having 400 hp in an Iroc it was clear to me that the car wasn't stock.

 

yea torque on the hhr is somewhere around the same as hp

 

stage 2 and he hhr would get its ass waxed
