i raced a stock ss/tc and my mods were stock pully intake header/dp and a custom tune
40-110 i put him at my back bumper 2 times on the 3rd pull he was a fender ahead of me no cooling FTL
but i have races gms2 only cars and i usually have them at my back bumper just like the TC was

yea they can definitally hang in there with faster cars with just a tune the biggest advantage and why i was able to beat the TC was bc i have a higher reline then him the only time i gained ground was when he shifted

I think the SS/TC will win. If the SS/TC NLS he will definitely win. I just raced a buddy of mine from a 40 roll. He had stage 2, header, exhaust and a hurst STS. He puleld a fender on me then I reeled him in. If the ss/tc doesn't NLS, I think the ss/sc will win.

I also think its funny how all you guys are talking about et's yet you run from rolls. All that matters in the trap speed. The cobalt TC has trapped 104 STOCK. Guess what most Mustang Mach 1's trap stock ???? 104-105. Guess what most Ls1 GTO's trap stock 104-105.
Funny isn't it.

Ive only had my cobalt ss/sc little over a month and finally ran a cobalt yesterday from like 50-110mph or so. I saw the rims and it was a tc, I pulled him by about a car im stage 2 only. I basically got him right off the bat and hardly pulled after that.

yeah i remember back in the day when the ss/sc was top dog among the cobalt community it took GM Stage 2 to compete with a nsrt-4 Stage 2. I remember watching some races on Streetfire, and the Stage 2 ss/sc would win sometimes. now i know when you fully bolt and tune a nsrt-4 its no contest anymore.

my buddy is making around 310 whp with stage 2 and full bolt ons + a tune. Hes stays a fender behind me up to 60, then I pull him. However, his turbo is much smaller and makes power in the bottom while mine makes it in the top, so this makes sense.

Based on track times of a stage 2 LSJ and those of a stock LNF this isn't going to be a walk in the park for the SC and the same goes for the TC regardless of whether or not NLS is used. Distances should be within the rear quarter panel in either direction; in fact a best of 6 pulls (with breaks to avoid heatsoak on the LSJ and COT mode on the LNF) I'd almost expect it to be 3 and 3 but that's in a perfect world
. Unfortunately someone is going to **** up during the race and the resulting post will turn into an LSJ or LNF fanboi fest as usual videos or not so I'll make my prediction now and await the outcome

Running sub 14s consistently is not the norm for a stock TC; the average time is somewhere in the ballpark of 14.02ish to 14.2 give or take. Are 13s obtainable, yes. Could someone at an average elevation go run these consistently with a stock TC, highly doubtful.
