    Little about me if ya care. I'm 20 years old, engaged to my lovely baby Jamie, full-time student, full-time technican at Dodge. Proud owner of a 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LS that is my first new car that I purchased(I owned two previous POS).

    Couple specs on my Cobalt. Purchased May 15, 2006 with 12 miles on the odo. Pushing 16K now on it.

    Engine Specs:
    Engine: 2.2L ECOTEC
    Transmission: 5 spd
    HP: 145
    Tq: 155
    Redline: 6500
    Weight(w/ me): 3150
    Magazine ET: 15.5-15.8
    My ET: 16.005 at Steele, AL on a Sunday(hot day sucky track and tires...everyone was off badly) Haven't gotten a modded ET yet guys...just fine tuning the car. I'll go to the track when I get the bugs worked out. Hate being the guinea pig on some of this stuff, but hey it's worth it.

    Mods I have done:
    CAI
    Header
    Full custom exhaust(redoing it when funds allow)
    Short shifter
    16" Rims with Kumho Ecsta SPT tires
    SAFC-II(need to figure out my sensor specs for it to work properly)
    3/4 done with my nitrous

    Car record:
    Wins:
    Civic debadged DX(blew his doors off) Why did he have to rev up at me. -sigh-
    Mistu Eclipse RS(fiance was with me and she couldn't stop laughing at him...he was pissed)
    Grand Prix V6(guy honked as he did the 'domestic' flyby) pretty close race
    Mustang V6(stupid dumbass was cocky as hell since he didn't expect me to pull like I did)
    Honda Accord(4 cyl just bought it with some mods already on it)
    Del Sol(punk talking trash)
    Civic Hatch around Dville(don't know what was up with him other than hearing the dreaded GRIND from his car)
    V6 Firebird(saw me and the above civic running then as we staged for another roll run)
    Chevy Silverado(revved up at my sister who was with me thinking its my gf -sick-)

    Losses:
    WRX(fcking around with my buddy on the way to the track)
    Mustang GT(my mistake...didnt see the exhaust cutouts so I got what was coming)
    Mustang SVT(guy at work who was curious)
    and thats all...I need to pick on bigger game I guess since I don't really challenge anymore. Any good modded cars out there for a win?

    Tied:
    3.0L Maxima

    Wins:
    Civic hatch with swap, but do not know those. It was a late 90s. 3/10ths 2nd race of 2
    Cobalt SS(she was new to the car) First race(she had a 1.0+ RT to my .621 RT)

    Losses:
    Chevy truck(ran bloody 11s)
    15(no BS) mustang GTs
    Cobalt SS(she got me 2nd race)
    Civic hatch with swap(beat me by 1/10th)
    Couple hot rods

    GUYS YOU NEED TO COME TO STEELE...I'm sick of running all these V8s.

    Pictures of my car:
    When my picture site comes back! Well my homepage takes you to my pictures. I'll post them when I can...I'm sorry guys.

    It was a blackout with euros. Lowered, rims, gauges on A-pillar. Oh snap! I just named out 100000000000000 Civics! I honestly thought I was going to get my azz handed to me, BUT he was only NA I do believe because when he gunned it we were even(I was at the end of my short powerband, and you guys know Honda and Acura...LONG RPM range ) until he ground a gear(downshifting) and I planted mine(upshifting).

    We were on the interstate and they got off at the last Villa Rica exit and turned towards Villa Rica when I turned towards Carrollton.

    And here are the pictures(just a few).


    Some more(dirty)

    Yeah it's close. I'm in Carrollton a lot for school mostly. Practically live there, but I work in Bremen and also go to school in Waco. Live in Ranburne, AL so that is where my driving is. And at least one day I'm in Jacksonville, AL. A day every other week I am in McDonough, GA. And on my way back home I go through Fayetteville and Newnan. I'm staying in Fayetteville for Nopi by the way at Holiday Inn.

    And to think...that's not even joy riding. I don't do that much anymore because of gas prices.

    Late 90s...looked like it only had a exhaust on it. Probably first 'racer' the kid ever owned. Noob acting like he's a pro FTW! I still have a lot to learn and I've been doing this for two years(drag). I'm always keeping a open mind to racing and learning...best way to go.

    Last accord I ran was bolted and I ran him in my Sentra(I was in 17s with my rims on it) and he barely pulled on me when we got to 100.

    Model....umm by the way I pulled...not one of the upper models I know that much. LX maybe...going off Civics if they have it as DX, LX, EX, etc.

    If I'm in a good mood and we happen to run into each other...sure why not. I mean just for shyts n giggles.
