Stock for stock the Cobalt should win considering the Cobalt has a decent driver
08-20-2008
yea...the driver is cocky and thinks a superchargered cobalt can smoke a vette
08-20-2008
yea i don't know about a vette, i think it could be a good race just the regular 3800 engine has some pretty good get up

I can beat him in a stock Grand Prix.
If you can drive you will beat him in the stock Grand Prix.
I've raced one at a track once with my car becuase him, and his cocky friends wanted to 'See which supercharger car was faster'. I, literally crossed the line, turned off, headed back, and then stopped at the shack to get my time slip and it was just now printing becuase he had only just then crossed the finish line.

And, somehow, I had the impression that they were fairly quick... oh well

i think people get the impression that the supercharged Cobalts are suppose it be so much faster, with there nice factory tunes, and all the other restrictions that they have not so quick

do you ahve any race mod tips ?? or tips on how to race better just flat out
08-21-2008
Tips on racing:
-Don't F up your launches.
-Practice launching.
-Go on the third honk, not after it
-P-shift stays on when you're out so you don't eff up in a surprise race.
-Tune your car!!!
-Always start at slow speeds, as our cars don't have the greatest top-end.
-Practice launching some more.

yea lol thanks im hoping to get the grand prix soonre than a month its just hard finding work thatnks for the great tips...how would you describe a greta luanch??

A great launch is getting off of the line as fast as possible without spinning the tires. Start with half throttle and ease into it, then go back and do it again, but increase your initial throttle position just a little bit. Continue doing so until you start to get a chirp out of the tires. Keep practicing at that point. A small chirp is okay, but you want to stay below the friction threshold of your tires. Only go up to about 30MPH. By that speed, you've already determined how well you'll do in a full race. And, whatever you do, make sure the road/parking lot you are practicing/racing on is clear of other people.

And don't do a burnout on street tires.
08-21-2008
yea ok so just punching it right form the light is a bad idea and should i start form a rolling start??

I am dissapointed to say that my only real losses were both against cobalts.
One was a supercharged one, with a smaller pulley and supporting mods, and the other was a turbocharged one that sounded considerably louder than stock

I got beat badly by one. We went from 45-100. Turns out my car wasnt running right but I'd bet he'd still beat me now... Well at least for the next day or so mwuahahahaha
