What kind of cobalt? I'm pretty sure an SS would smoke you but i'm not sure about the other types.

a SS would smoke you, and i think a 2.4 would be neck and neck, it being lighter with not much less power/TQ.the 2.2 is gonna be a lil bit better than the sunfire you were talking about, and you'll prolly get it by 1-2cars, Maybe 3 if it's a **** driver... you doing the whole 1/2 mile? depending on what model it is, the limitor is set to 108 or 118, if it's 108, you're almost garunteed to win the 1/2.

is it a 4dr or 2dr? not all, but most 2drs are 2.4s. and a SS.. you'll know it when you see it.

def not an ss.. i dnt see any badges on it.. and its a 4 door.. and we will probably do a little morew than 1/4 but not the full 1/2.. because right after that 1/2 mile straigh away is a mean curve.. so we will need some stopping time...

the SS is more HP/TQ, and lighter, and will pull alot better in upper MPH..

4door is almost garunteed to be a 2.2, so you should win by about 2cars. it's the same as the sunfire, cept newer technology, prolly somewhat lighter, and i beleive they're tuned better. most 4doors are also automatic, so you'll have that edge if he is auto.

yea, they are all FWD cars, and the SS has a LSD to help traction, but it'll still spin like a ****. only edge you'd have against a SS.

see the new SS/Redline coming out? gona be turbo'ed instead, and they're thinking either RWD or AWD. havent decided yet. and it'll also be available on the 4doors this time around.
