Raced an 06 Cobalt SS (a buddies car).

We started at around 70 mph, and I took off on him. We were pretty close to even until around 110 mph. He then kicked the living shit out of me.

He has a higher top end in the SS, but I can whip his ass whenever it comes to taking off at a dead stop.

If the SS is stock, then this seems odd to me because our cars can go 125-130mph and the SS is turbo'd (stock but still) so shouldn't you have gained on him in the end? I dunno...

I raced a friends 04' Grand Prix from 60mph+ and I pulled away from him at 110+ ... at 120+ he was falling way behind because his car topped out at 110 or something.

So.... anyone actually run on the track with timeslips besides me? :p


yeah i have mine posted in another thread that was started for posting time slips. i also have my old times in my sig. i haven't been to the track in a year so i don't know what it runs currently. i just know its faster.


Car is being put on hold until further notice. Work will continue pending on if i get the new toy i want or not. I will keep you all posted.

UPDATE ON THE TUNE. It went ok but a few little issues that are causing my performance to be less than expected have shown themselves. Now I have to resolve them when I get the chance and it will be back to PTuning for the finishing touches.

The Cobalt SS is no joke. At 110 he was ripping me apart, I had nothing left and he was walking away. I got my car to 120, but he still had me beat. The SS pulls 200 HP when supercharged, about as much as a Civic Si. Its pretty quick.

generally speaking.. a tc vs a SS .. we dont have a chance unless its heavily modded.. even a stock SS and btw the SS's are supercharged with 200hp except for the new models which are turbo'd with 260hp/260tq...

Well in the take off, my manual vs his automatic SS, I whipped his ass. In top end, he destroyed me. So I dunno what to think. All I have done to my car is cat-back exhaust. So im pushing maybe 169 to the wheels, hes doing somthing close to 200. With a few more mods, I should be at Cobalt SS level to where I can actually hang in the higher speeds.

The older Cobalt SS (2007) had 2 levels.... 1 with the supercharger, one without.

Cobalt 1SS has a NA 2.4L making 173HP. That might have been the one you were racing?

The Cobalt SS Supercharged has the 2.0L ECOTEC 205HP SC'd.

2008 Cobalt 1SS is Turbocharged - 260HP @ 5300 RPM, 260lb-ft @ 2000 RPM. That's a lot of power down low!

According to the Chevy website, only the non-supercharged version is available in automatic, which means that his car is the 1SS Non-SC'd version putting out 173HP.

Ya, I wasn't trying to race, he floored so I floored it. But it was only one race and I think I was still in first gear right when he floored it, so I was in a sweet spot (4800rpm or so).

EDIT: Oh ya, and I don't think he thought he would find me on here!LOL When I asked what color it was I got voted down and we never heard from him again.
Before he moved he threw a egg at our garage door. Oh man that hurts.LOL
