Roll race against a Cobalt SS tonight

Tonight a few friends got together and i got a good race out of it.

I went from a 30mph roll in 2nd gear against a cobalt SS. From 30 till 80mph i pulled a good two truck lengths. Have to give it to you guys. Very quick from a roll.

Aerodynamics + SRT-10 Ram = Death

It's not that fast. I can't wait to slap a Novi kit on it.

Aren't Typhoons/Syclones capable of 5.2 seconds 0-60 and 13.7's? I believe it's same set-up as the Buick GNX's from back then. Not for SS's to play with!!

Sometime I'd like to burst a MOPAR guy's bubble.

But I'm just not a proficient typist!

In relation to 60's drag racing it was Chevrolet NOT Mopar
Most national champions hands down!!!!!! NHRA

Burst what bubble?

SRT-4 = Cobalt SS
RAM SRT-10 = Lightining (Since GM fell so short with the Siverado SS)
Viper < Corvette


Syclones and Typhoons had a Turbo 4.3 and AWD, SRT-4's might keep up with a Typhoon but don't stand a chance vs Syclone.

Some Syclones are just insane. Theres a guy around town here that has one running low 12s, and its tuned like ****.

Look up Dr. Hoovers Sysclone... thing is insane. I think it does like a high 8, low 9 on Street tires.

I love the RAM SRT-10 to bad they weigh so much.

I raced one 4 times in my Camaro SS before he figured out he wasn't going to win.

I saw this on a GMC website.

"The GMC Syclone is the quickest production truck ever produced. A well driven stock Syclone does 0-60 in 4.6 sec and 1/4 mile in 13.4 Sec"

I have a special place in my heart for those trucks, unfortunetly they were before my time and I will probably never have one...

A guy down the street from me has a Syclone. I really loved it until he put some god awful cat back on it with a single 3 inch tip going straight out the back.

I really couldn't care less about S-10's and Blazers... they just don't do anything for me... but the Syclone's and Typhoons are just plain sweet.

It's the same situation with Grand Nationals and T-type Regals, I guess. I wouldn't take an 80's Regal if someone gave it to me, but T-Types and GN's are bad to the bone.
