View Full Version : new mod pissed off turbod cobolt

07-28-2008, 08:27 PM
so i just got done about 8:30 pm doing the govern mod (ie so the govern doesnt stop the car at one speed) but anyways my friend left me the car and asked me to do it then go drive it to see how it works so i did just that i had to go into town for ice.
so on the way into town there is a straight stretch roughly i would say almost 3/4 mile long and there is a single stop light in the center of this pass for the plant, so i was coming to the out skirts of town 35 to a 55 so i went from third to second to give a jump so see if it would act up but nothing but seem to be better(dunno why) but there was a white turbod ss cobolt pulled out behind me blowing the horn muffling all the good stupid rice shit lol,
so we come around the first been to the strecth doing roughly 60 in a 55 and theres a van so i was like lets see what this thing has so when the last car passed i swong out from behind the van at sixty in fourth shifted down to third while swinging out and hit the power band and shifted 4th power band 5th the cobolt deceid to tag along so we are both passed the van and now roughly 90 95 mph so i didnt think he would follow is why i went 5th gear well he deceid he would pass me so i dropped a gear for a split time to get power band back and we where nose to nose 105 came up and i was like i hope i have the switch the right way.
well i did and needless to say it kept going and going well i started to pull ahead and keep getting more then i notice his car is jerking because he still has the govern so i slowed back down and let him go, turned around and got ice when back towards home and here he comes again and i was like not worth my time so i just let him do all his stupid ricer shit again
the whole funny thing about this is i can drive a stick just enough to get from a to b not race or anything so i was really surprised i did so well because usally i jerk and all that good newbe stick shit but it was ok i guess i dont like "street racing" its to deadly but when u have a asshole who think hes got it all u have to atleast try :)

Dude, I am as lenient as the next guy. I've done my fair share of runs above 100 (granted in different cars).
First off, it isn't safe. Saying you aren't that good at driving stick, and telling us how you were shifting will not make a difference. It makes you "that guy." You know? The guy that always has to say something.
Your miss spellings, and bad punctuation agitate me. Have you no . . wait. Hold on.
Halve ewe know shaem?
Ok, had to get that out of my system.
And from the way it sounds, you were using your friends car. Hate to break it to you. If you were in any of my cars doing things like that, I would personally drive down the road, and press your face against the ass-fault. See, a play on miss spelled words.
There is a reason the zx2 has a governor. Most people don't have the suspension, or tires, or skill to take the car to that speed. I just sold my cwq3. No governor, however I'm sure he wanted it for the performance gains. Not just that.
Just be smart man, don't tell us about things that could land your ass in jail.

Everytime I'm ta 106 MPH or so He just punches me in the balls and grunts. I'm not sure if this was a popular option, I've never sene it before so IDK.
umm....it deff wasn't a turbo'd cobalt. For one they don't have a speed limiter. Two they have a direct injected 260hp engine. Three you can't get the SS/TC or SS/SC in white. Even if it was an older SS supercharged version like mine they still don't have a speed limiter, and it would take a good amount of nitrous or a turbo to keep beat one. Three you can't get the SS/TC or SS/SC in white. It was either a 170hp 2.4 ss/sport, or a 2.2 balt with the SS exterior effects on it. The 2.4 would still give a stock/lightly modded zx2 a run for its money. So it was probably a 2.2 with the SS effects, and even so you had to be going a 125 for him to of hit his speed limiter. 125 on a public road especially in town which it sounds like you would of been is COMPLETELY STUPID! Your lucky you didn't kill someone or yourself if you really did this.
I'm sorry I don't like to say bad things about peoples stories, but yours sucks.

Easy there compadre. Have you ever read the threads in here? 9 times out of 10 there is bashing. Everyone gets it. Don't think it is personal. If I posted that I raced my eclipse against a metro, I am sure someone would give me a hard time.
Yes, you can do anything you want. However, there are laws, and common decency. Imagine taking a turn to fast, going sideways and hitting a car. Now imagine you are fine, you get out. And look into the window to see the smashed face of a little girl.
Try living with that.
The drunk ass hat that killed my sister will never be able to forgive himself for what he did. Sure, you weren't drunk. But take it from someone that knows what that kind of thing can do. The risks aren't worth it. Unless you are on the highway, late at night, with no traffic, in the middle of no where, someone is going to give you a hard time.

SS cobalt can dust ZX2's unless you really spend the cash to transplant some balls onto the zx2.

I think its mostly just laziness, and text messaging that did my generation in. They have to know somewhat how to use English right, because I wasn't even at school half the time and I know how. lol

Actually, all the S/R codes have a speed limiter inbetween 150 and 155mph.

You realize your budies stock, H- rated tires are only speed rated to 108 mph? After that, they may shred under centifugal force.

I wonder if he realizes that removing the governor doesn't make the car accelerate faster?? I'm going to guess that he doesn't. Won't be long before the CEL comes on probably either I'm betting.

HAHAHAHA! If this is seriously the future generation... My job is secure. I am very happy that when I was in school AIM was just starting to catch on and no one had the technology to text yet. When this generation ends up running the show, I'm seriously moving to Viet Nam after I retire.
In town no I don't hardly ever go over the speed limit. Yes occasionally I will go 5-10mph over if I'm in a hurry and the road isnt busy, but this rarely happens. If its on a backroad on the interstate 10-15, but thats just because everyone else does it and if you don't you get ran over. Over 100mph in town is ridiculous though. On the rare occasion I do race someone on the street I slow down at a max of 15 over the speed limit, because if I'm not ahead by then I'm not gonna win anyway.

On the rare occasion I do race someone on the street I slow down at a max of 15 over the speed limit, because if I'm not ahead by then I'm not gonna win anyway.It doesn't matter if you're going 1 mph or 100 mph over the speed limit, it's still illegal. So saying that doing 100 in town is rediculous, is a stupid statement in itself. Sounded like he was going down a back road in a straight line to me. Someone said most people don't have the skill to drive a 100 mph and that is another stupid statement. If you don't have enough skill to drive a zx2 100 mph in a straight line you shouldn't be driving any car on the road.
I never argued the legality of anything. Its not the legality that I care bout its the well being of people that might of been around. My whole post was about explaining that it wasn't an SS cobalt, and how going over 100mph anywhere close to people Is extremely dangerous. That he could of killed someone, and or himself. If your going over 100 and someone pulls out in front of you, or walks out into the street. What the hell are you going to do? Either hit them or swerve loose control and wreck into something else. Have you read his post well? It says he was on the outskirts of town, and bought ice. A back road is not on the outskirts of town, and neither are stores. There is a big difference between going 55-60 in a 45 or 40 in a 30(depending on whether it is out in the country or in town) and going over a 100. You have no time to react to anything at that speed. Also the argument other people made about being able to control the car at 100mph....Yes going 100 in a straight line is easy as coloring inside the lines. What happens if there is a large bump or hole in the road you don't know about? You hit a large bump going that speed and your air born. Try to swerve to miss a hole very easy to loose control on the floppy soft zx2 suspension. If you hit it you would probably blow out a tire. Hit that same bump or hole going a reasonable speed legal or not and nothing bad would happen. Thats just a few scenarios of what could happen going that fast.
