      two kinds of SS Cobalts are made: one is supercharged, one is not. The supercharged on WOULD own you, no problem.

          I thought the supercharged SS only came in manual.

          If its an auto SS it isnt supercharged, to my knowledge, so you should win...especially if your auto has 3.42 gears.

              supercharged SS would and will walk you. if you superharge your motor you wouldnt have any problems catching him. just dont be stupid about adding boost to your motor. without the right fuel and what not your going to mess some stuff up.

              but then again if the kid with the SS puts a pulley kit of his car, exhaust and intake... it will walk the living daylights out of ya.

                Might be about even then. Remember, your car is heavier too.

                    i dont know if they are that quick. the new GT's are 13 second cars stock. the cobalt SS s/c is more like a mid 14 second car. theres a good portion of a second seperating the 2. so driver ability comes into play on that one.

                        Re: racing

                        Yeah, typically they will go mid 14s stock, but with drag radials, a good launch, and a serious shifter they have gone high 13s (buddy of mine went 13.8 or 13.9 stock on drag radials)

                        A new mustang gt can be high 13s, but mostly I see them go low 14s because they dont have enough tire for their torque.

                          What GT had 290hp? They had 260 and now have 300.

                          And LS1s run low 13s stock at good altitude...so a few less hp in a well driven mustang can easily get 13s.
