LOL..so i killed a Cobalt

**blackhawk01** · 10-27-2007, 05:45 AM

Twas the night before halloween..and not a car in sight..but a cobalt and a couger, getting ready to fight..alright j/k.

So i was coming up to a light up behind a Couger when he pulls up next to a yellow cobalt..the cobalt looked really nice, the tip actually went with the car and it didnt look that bad. So the cobalt starts revving at the couger wanting to race....so im thinking "this could be fun". I start revving just a little to let him know im there...even though im behind the couger.

Light changes and the cobalt takes off and I swing around the couger and get up behind the cobalt,,he switches lanes and I blow by him. Now we both have our girls in the car. He starts revving at me at a light that we both turn left on. So we turn left, I pop traction control off and the last thing I saw was headlights lol. It was a pretty fun race..put him in his place

lol

Cobalt, another mistake made by GM

**hutch1999** · 10-27-2007, 07:55 AM

So is this a cobalt SS or just a regular colbalt?

**blackhawk01** · 10-27-2007, 08:21 AM

They just suck, even the SSs with a supercharger runs what 16s?

**blackhawk01** · 10-27-2007, 09:19 AM

Still though...its GM family...

It's a 4 cylinder with a SC putting out 205hp. The car was built to compete with the Civic, not a mustang. The stage 3 cobalt is rated at 260hp on 100 octane and even has a nitrous algorithm rated at a 50 shot. Not too shabby...

**Zboner** · 10-27-2007, 09:34 AM

yea it replaced the cavy, lol

**stevenm357** · 10-27-2007, 10:14 PM

I hope they bring back a turbo instead of a SC really it's made to compete against all the rice in the world.... not a bad car for that.

That thing needed replacing. It wasn't getting any better looking, all they did was change the rear lights for the last few years. Cobalt was a welcome change, still not a beauty, but change is good!

**ATCharming** · 10-28-2007, 12:07 AM

cobalts are an economy family-friendly car lol. they obviously arent the sexiest things on the road, but they arent butt ugly. way better lookin than the cavy.
and btw, i really doubt the supercharged ss cobalts are running 16's. probably more like 14's. HUUUGE difference. thats like lt1 territory. definitely not a mistake made on a family car.
and im glad its supercharged instead of turbo. they pretty much opened a whole new idea up to the sports car world: stock superchargers. obviously termy's and lightnings started it (maybe sumthin before it, but nothing sporty. like the bonneville ssei's, or some oldsmobiles... idk and idc...) but the cobalts i think are really introducing the idea even more. im tired of hearin all these ricer turbos... its nice to hear a change.

but hey blackhawk, thats a good story lol. sucks that they got caught, but they got off real lucky. the only bad thing is, its gonna make racing a little less desirable with a close call like that, plus cops are gonna be more on the lookout maybe?

ATCharming: How dare you forget the Thunderbird Super Coupe. 3.8 sc'd, rear wheel drive, sport luxary awsomeness. They were a cool car back in the day. 220hp/330ft-lbs.

To the original poster: I was rolling down the highway the other day and a decent looking chick in a blacked out Cobalt started pacing me. I started to chuckle. I hear her downshift, so I did as well. My wastegate dump opened almost exactly as I passed her, I bet it scared the shit out of her. I put a few lengths and lifted =)

whoops... see idk about all the stock supercharged cars, but i think between the cobalt ss and the terminator (altho its a few years old already) are relaly opening up a whole new world on manufacturing cars

Got some news for you that you might not like.. heard a "very possibly true" rumor today that.. the NEW SS Cobalts are going Turbo. Increase in HP though.. I heard in the same rumor that tests showed 14.1 1/4 mile. Not bad at all.
