I was driving through town tonight and caught up to a Cobalt SS. It was the turbo SS. I kinda goose it so he can hear my SC. He gooses back so I can hear his BOV. He had a fart can and an intake I know of. Doubt he was running more than stock boost due to the outcome. So we make it to the drag strip and he taps his horn and slows down to 20MPH. I drop down into 1st and he does the same. I blow the horn 3 times and we're off. I have some wheelspin as does he so we remain dead even. Being right beside another car with my window half way down at redline I didn't realize how loud my SC is. Anyways, he had already hit 2nd and spun a bit going into 2nd and I'm still spinning in first. We both catch traction about the same time, then I hit 2nd and begin to inch on him (torque FTW), when he shifts to third, I pull about 1/2 - 3/4 of a car by the time he gets spooled back up. I'm again, just inching on him, same thing every shift till I hit 100mph and let off. I took him by about 2 cars. I let off and he does the little fly by. For some reason, his passenger flips me the bird instead of a thumbs up.
Last sentence is a lie, he just flew by and that was it. I'm proud of the gtp tonight. If he would have power shifted and kept his boost, he probably would have won. Maybe had to replace a shifting fork, but he woulda won. Those cars are quick though! Win for me and GTP though!
