Default Scion TC vs Cobalt SS

I know this is like a golf cart racing a riding mower but here it is. I'm the cobalt. Not much of a video but I'm bored lol.

Is that you talking on tape? Your post had me rolling and that balt moved out. No way a TC is going to hang with it.

Haha its all good. I told the guy in the scion I'm making over 300whp with the tune and I'm rated 260 stock but he still wanted to race. He kept saying he thought it'd be a good race. When we met up to do it I told him the first race I wouldn't turn the tune on (this race). I even had 3 old brake rotors and a extra downpipe in the trunk lol.

He said you got a bad little car. I just thought to myself haha climb in the Trans Am. There were 5 of us down there and me being the youngest. They were all at least 25 and I just turned 20. I think he was hoping I was a non driver being alot younger. As soon as I got home he started asking me all these questions on facebook about how he can make his car faster.

Good kill! Silly TC. I swear those are one of the slowest things on the road. Around here there's a couple that think they're fast until they get beat by my old truck(best of 14.7 1/4 mile, the 2011 R/T)

Was that a road course race?, i love all the turns in that drag race haha.


My brother once negotiated a race with a german guy driving a supercharged 350z with my brother driving his Grand National, we didn't realize what was up until the guy grabbed the construction cones from his trunk. He legitimately thought they were gonna auto-x in the parking lot. We were all speechless.

Fail wheel drive and lots of power lol

Also, I just watched the video again on good speakers, anyone else notice the boomhower voice just before the video ends?

OP, I have family down in VA, perhaps if I ever go visit them, we can have a meet and you can kick my *** in that balt of yours
