no way they could beat us. they might have beat one when the camaro wasn't even racing them. i have not raced one before, but i have rode in them. they are not that fast.

Driver mod can make up for a lot.

That said, assuming equal drivers and cars in proper running condition, no, there's no way. Even a bone-stock LT1 A4 should take the win.

My friend has a 06 SS with the supercharger. I beat the living **** out of him when we race and my car is a 99 Z28 A4 2.73 geared. He just put GM Stage 2 on his car which is about 40 hp I believe so he might be hanging with me now.

Them Cobalt SS's are quick but my buddie Danny has a black one with the S/C and I smoke him by at least a few cars every single time...They're making them stories up, Maybe they beat a Camaro with the Iron Duke engine...hell I've never seen a 4 cyl Camaro

I spanked the crap out of one with me and 3 friends in the car, he had him and his g/f in it. My car only had exhaust/intake on it to.

i heard from a few people that cobalts aren't supposed to last that long in terms of mileage on the motor, something about they are not well built which could be a first for gm. either way i think they're nice cars for they're level but are not on our level.

If I recall correctly, 13.0 for me vs 14.0 for the black cobalt and 15.0 for the red one.
