Something a lot like this happened to me in last night but with an IS350 with exhaust. The guy takes off about two cars back behind me, I didn't want to drop the car onto 2nd 6k rpm, but I went for 3rd at 4k, a little lag before full boost, but I stopped his advance and started reeling him hard, then the second I start getting onto his bumper he shuts down. Then the guy just starts flashing his hazards and won't do a real matched up pull. I guess he saw me reeling him hard =/

You knew a guy named Turbo Joe in the east coast?
He is pretty good with Audi/Turbo

I am always having to abuse those Cobalts. Those guys must have serious inferiority complexes.
Have fun and be safe!

It's not worth it....
Cobalt SS drivers are from another level of socioeconomic class that I can't even identify. I was minding my own business when a Cobalt SS pulls up next to me. Wasn't going to drag him but it was waay to tempting (0 traffic and 1 mile of straight road). I pulled on him hard and by 60 mph it wasn't even worth it. I let off the gas and he does a ricer flyby and cuts in front of me.
Let's face the facts: if all you can afford is a Cobalt, then I too would be extremely bitter and have a huge chip on my shoulder.
Whenever some punk *** ricer tries to race me, I don't even give them the time. The best revenge is living well.

Colbalt or not, it's the driver who is an idiot, not the car. Don't fault the car or put people down who drive or race them. Just because one car costs more than another is no reason to put anyone down. Fault the drivers.

You should be ashamed of yourself.
Most of the people who make your life better do not have the salary to afford MBs. Think about this, the next time you feel so important: We all know America would do just fine without consultants; but what would it be like without police officers, firefighters, teachers, servicemen, et al who can't come close to your salary or your incredible ability to purchase a used MB.
And for who's bitter...you should know that money isn't what makes a person happy or not.
I'm not taking up for the Cobalt driver in this case; because he was a total asshat. But, you need to come down off your pedestal.

FormulaZR, you just made my weekend with these two quotes. Priceless.
"Never argue with an idiot....they'll just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience."
"...because he was a total asshat."

Well...I'm glad I'm useful for something around here! Sorry...I'm an atypical MB owner; forgive my crudeness.
