Rematch: Cobalt SS vs CTS-V

Well, finally able to show people what I can do with traction. Pretty sure the second run was with nitrous, but he said he didn't have any in the bottle. CTS-V ran a 13.3 to the Cobalt's 13.1 @ US13 Dragway(crap track). Same CTS-V with the same mods was running mid to high 12's at Cecil.

You can hear it in his motor, he didn't spray. nice job from the dig tho, I expected him to jump a car or two at least in first.

Cobalts cutting them v8's down at the knee's.

LOL i laugh everytime someone says to brakeboost with a K04. they don't have enough lag for it to matter that much. maybe double clutching would help too ..

good runs OP!

If I ever get the damn clutch replaced. lol. Just dropped $1200 on the GTO to start getting it ready for track duty. Still need new tires, axles, and coilovers. Somewhere in between that, I'm going to get a new clutch for the Balt.

good runs OP!
There is a grey area in between gears where it actually works, because it either spools so fast and spins or bogs slightly.

Also you can hear nitrous in a motor vs no nitrous, and you can compare both videos and hear it. Easily audible on a v8.

Good runs! I don't think there was any nitrous used, he just out drove you that last run by a bit i think. I couldn't tell an exhaust note difference either.

My h/c camaro has a 100 shot. Only way you're gonna tell I sprayed you is by how much more I pull away.

Driver mod, once the passenger was gone it was a real race.

You can hear spray, adding a 100 hp to a car changes the note, believe what you want.

Revs faster? Yes
The note? No

And with just a 100 shot, if you're not in the car. You can't tell at all.
My car revs so quick with 410s my buds can't tell if I sprayed by sound.
