Last night I met up with bunch of guys on the local SRT forum. Two of them were pretty much maxed out stock turbo, one of the guys, TJ, made 298 whp on 91 octane, the other, Chase, hasn't been dyno'd yet, but based on his mods we seemed to be pretty damn close! There was another SRT with just intake and exhaust, a 350Z, a trailblazer SS, a 410 rwhp GTO, and a 2000 corvette with intake and catless exhaust. It was like 10 pm and we went out on the freeway to a completly empty portion, and just went at it! That **** was so much fun!!! DAMN, I've never gone that fast in any car before! On one of the multiple 40 rolls we did, I let off at 160 MPH!!! I raced Chase from 40 to 140. He jumped about a car ahead in start, because of his 1000 ft-lbs of torque at 2000 rpm I lost by, oh half a fender or so. If we would have raced from a 65-70 roll it would have been either dead even or I would have been slightly ahead. Just like my prediction, he had more bottom end but I had more top end. Still Tjs car was rediculously fast, but I still never got more than 1.5-2 cars back from him!!! **** man he raced the corvette up to 170!!!! It was so much fun! Well, at least until I over heated my blower, that kinda sucked.

Oh and all these results were on a pissed off clutch, and the MOST MILD tune I have. 15.5 degrees of timing and a low-mid 11s AFR!!!
Seriously the most fun I've had in a LONG time

P.S. Its been suggested that I also post these races from last weekend
- Mid 80s Z28 with long tubes, full exhaust, cam, others? Defeated by 1.5-2 cars from a 65 roll
- Early 90s NISSAN SKYLINE R32 GTS-T with HUGE front mount, motor swap (can't remember which one, RB20-something), exhaust, unfinished tune. Defeated by 1-1.5 cars from a 70 roll
- 2004 Pontiac GTO with exhaust, cam, and a good tune, 410 rwhp. I lost by 1.5 cars from both a 40 and a 65 roll, still not bad concidering I was racing a car with 410 rwhp!

 

sounds like an insane night!! how much hp/tq do u have?!

 

Sounds like you had fun. Be careful out there. How do you know you over heated your blower? Why don't you have water/meth yet?

 

Because I don't want the life of my motor to rely on a small fluid pump. ESPECIALLY after hearing a horror story of a guy with turbo camaro and water/meth racing several times, after one or two races the pump seized up... lets just say his motor wasn't happy OR healthy after that.
I'm pretty sure the blower over heated from 3 140 mph pulls, 1 150 mph pull, and 1 160 mph pull BACK TO BACK!!! 160 mph isn't exactly easy on the blower, thats overspinning it for a long period of time, after the 160 pull, my car started making a loud ticking noise, I pulled over and it turned out the sound was coming from the blower, which was EXTREMELY hot, like "can't even touch it" hot! Limped it back to the meeting place, turned it off, left the intercooler pump on, and the hood open for about 30-45 minutes, hopped in and turned it on, no sound, hasn't done it since and I still get full boost no problem.

 

how would you do if you ran a mildly modded mach 1 , like intake exhuast

 

yikes 150 plus in public

 

thats street racing for ya

 

hah fun fun. so you beat a skyline huh. that must be awesome

 

I think most of us can say we're jealous! Nice job Blown! It must have been really fun, especially the Skyline kill! Good job representing the cobalt community!!

 

Thanks all, I'm doing a rematch with the SRTs... ONLY THIS TIME ILL HAVE MY RACE GAS TUNE!!!

 

Skylines are great cars. I grew up in Australia with them being as common as our cobalts are, they CAN be amazingly fast. but not all of them are ungodly race cars.
In fact some of them are downright slow unless you pour money at them.

 

great losses man, Please get that race gas tune on and smoke them@!

 

Hey I was a little faster than one of the SRTs. He jumped a full car ahead, and by the finish we were neck and neck

 

holy **** 160mph....how long did it take ya to get there..lol......be careful out there man!

 

LOL was this on the 202? cause i coulda sworn i saw a few srt's. heading the other way.

 

lol thats awesome man becareful out there though

 

That's kickass, man! But, for the 897,493rd time, be careful out there.

 

All the races and no Pics or vids? WTF! j/p, next time get some one to take video of that ****. throw it on youtube or something and show the country out these cars are capable of, and maybe more vendors will see that we're really into modding and maybe want to get into more stuff for us. and rub the **** in the other guys face that he lost to a chevy 4 banger.

 

Hey does you friend with the Evo still wanna race?
Yes sir, 202 east past williams field. 10:30 on wednesday night, not another car for miles
Suprizingly it didn't take that long at all, I was still gaining speed in 5th gear when I let off!!!

 

lol i will have to find out next time i see him.
