Short run - Cobalt vs 2013 Genesis 3.8 Nothing crazy, just a quick jaunt from 35ish to 90ish (maybe 100?)
Younger guy in a white 2013 3.8 with paper tags/track numbers on his back window and I were messing around back and forth. He'd take off aggressively from a light and I'd follow suit and have to let off so as not to hit him. We get a clearing and he's just waiting for me to get up beside him. Soon as I swing around to get up next to him and shift into 2nd, he hammers it and gets a little chirp from his tires....
So I start off with about a half car deficit and proceed to rip around him through 2nd gear while pulling another 1 1/2 cars, NLS 3rd and pulled another 2-3 cars, then quickly shut down.
We both get caught at the next light, me in the left turn lane and he's heading straight. Asked me "what I had going on" with the car and I politely told him that it was just a turbo rental car with a little flare. He laughed and gave a thumbs up. We complimented eachothers rides, light turns green and he hammers it through the intersection.
Sweet ride though. Really sharp with the new hood accents.

Considering what my car should be capable of, I don't think it's unreasonable to see an easy 4 car lengths or better. My car isn't like the clapped out POS you raced that you seem to consistently reference when it comes to the LNF and my car dead hooks unlike most. I do my own calibrating and this damn sure isn't my first rodeo.
Thanks Will
Just dead hookers. Fat ones. They've got more Ju1ce!
