Default Brockton Races

So i was up at the races last night for the first time in about 3 years. A ton of 16-18yr old kids with daddy's money..They had STI's old bugeye WRX's with upgraded turbos tons of stuff done were there, a few mustangs, tons of civics of course..it is brockton..not 1 person would run me..it was quite frustrating..after about 4hrs of sitting around, the racing started, tons of civics racing and the end of the night came, a kid whos a friend of a friend. Has a 09 cobalt SS, 76mm turbo,stroker motor,FMIC,tune,downpipe full exhaust, 2 step, axles, and drag radials shows up..it made 449whp and went 12.4 last month in NC where the kid is stationed for the marines, i finally after 4 hours get my race!!! my car being a A4 made me doubt it, but we came out of the hole, i went out about 4 cars initially, top of the road at the 1/4 mile marker i had him by what i was told, atleast 10 cars. Everybody i know that was there, said that kid hasnt lost on the street...I felt awesome beating that thing..Just wanted to share my story!

Nice kill! that kid should probably kill himself though cause his cobalt should be way deep inthe 11's with all that or faster.

I accidentaly hit dislike, but I totally like this post hahahaha. Good kill. There are a lot of cars around me that kids dump all their money into the cars, and theyre not built right and run like shit. Just a big collection of expensive parts. Sounds like this kid's in the same boat.

A4's are easier to launch and better for drag racing.

You must have a decent amount of stuff done to walk a mid 12 second car yes?

Cobalt's suck to launch if you have stock suspension still. Major wheelhop. I can imagine how much problems he has with over double the hp of my car.

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO
