Stage 2 Cobalt ss/sc vs. modded 350z
Stage 2 Cobalt ss/sc vs. modded 350z
Well tonight I was hanging out where I use to work talking to my old co-workers when I see a white 350 z revving up at me. Well I decided what the hell I'll follow him. I followed him to the bottom of a hill where it turns into a highway. I could hear him gear down to I say about 3rd gear or so. I put mine in 3rd caught up near him about 1 car behind and he got the jump. I was thinking to myself no way I can beat him now that he's got the jump on me. I started pulling a tad bit in third, actually quite a bit I was right beside him I shifted to 4th then I pulled him badly. All in All we hit about 100 and I had him by 3 cars. He pulled over and was very nice about it, said he was actually a ex cobalt ss/sc owner himself. He asked my mods and I asked him and he said it had a CAI with a cat back, sounded very very nice too.
Summary: I beat a 350z with a CAI and a catback by three cars, very nice guy as well.

i have driven it for 1h
it was i think 2003 6 speed hard top.....and i have raced one ......
they feel faster than a cobalt stock for stock to me,,mabey because of a 6 speed ...but after getting a stage 2 on i would say that cobalt could be faster but not much at all
i raced a 6 speed hardtop he had an CAI and i was stock with a 240lb passanger
0-120km/h he had an 1.5cars on me

i still think that cobalt owner are little over board with ss/sc
i have driven fatser and slower cars ..... cobalt is a nice car and i think that cobalt is missing one gear, should have had been 6 speed gears are to long that the problem
i think most od the kills here are because other driver suck with manual tranny
local guy witha 05 mustang gt coupe with just a CAI did 13.2@??? stock tires and all
350z i have seen it run 13.9@??? bone stock....
i have driven Z06, mustang gt many, camaro ss 350z,srt4 (many) srt8 charger, and

Well heres another believer...I have raced three z's and beat all of them. One was an auto convertable that was easy from a dig. 2nd was a manual with exhaust and intake 3 roll races i came out ahead each time. 3rd was a stock manual from a dig and he started out ahead due to my less than perfect launch but by third gear he was at my back bumper.
Reason I shifted to 4th early is that I do not like to put a ton of strain on my power train....though if there is any doubt let it be, no point in arguing over the internet about a kill, just figured I would share my story.
I wish I could have provided you guys with video, but it was just one of those things that happend, plus I don't have a video camera so that wouldn't be of any thought anyways.

May be, I'm not really sure, as stated I didn't even think I would beat him...I am not that familiar with 350z just figured it would be a kind fair race. I was very happy that I won though, just didn't expect it.
