Default 2005 GTO vs 2006 SS Cobalt

Ok this girl that works under me at work has this guy friend that thinks he knows about cars said that his 06 ss will destroy my GTO. First off he first said he paid 10 grand over the msrp so it could take a 600 shot of "Nos". So I was umm yea your looking at a 400 ponies vs 205 and theres no way in hell you would beable to spit that much nitrious into your system without killing your engine or your self. But Im putting a bill into a race and just wanted your opinions on this.

He may get you off the line becuase of his weight - but you should be wasting him by 1/8...if you've got a m6 short shift 2-3, put your pedal thur the floor & wave as you go by...
I wasted a crossfire the same way. guy had me off the line, i short shifted 2-3 and smiled as i went by. then a state bull pulled out and everybody was nose diving. no ticket and i was 80 getting ready to 4th

he's 17 years old isn't he????


I raced a stage II upgraded SS supercharged when I had nothing but headers and I CRUSHED it....multiple times.

He asked me what i had and when I told him just headers, he didn't believe me....

a stock cobalt SS doesnt have a snowballs chance in hell of coming close. they are offering a stage III cobalt SS now, with 235 hp, and that with a 125 shot of nitrous might come close to a stock GTO if you cant drive your M6.

chances are he doesnt know what hes talking about and youll get yourself some gas money.

For arguement' s sake he COULD spray a 600 shot, he' d have to be a ******* ***** for racing for anything less than a grand! Afterall....that' s 200 more than an LS2 stock! He won' t go any higher than $200 though, huh? Take every penny you can from him, let his girl hold the cash, but make her ride with you. I read a story like that once before.

Anyway tell him to go buy that 600 shot and put it on.
Meet him at the track or other appropriate venue with witnesses (and cameras)
Race on 3

Pick up your money after you stop laughing at his little engine blown to bits all over the place.

P.S. Don't line up next to him when he "hits that shot"

ive raced a black one that has an open exhuast, and has a bunch of stickers on the rear window. but even with me on my nitrous tune w/o the bottle, i left her way behind. i was pulling on her so bad that each time i started to get a couple cars ahead of her she would stop racing.
