But that is 205 supercharged HP. Any idea on the torque on those things? I'm wagering that it is significantly less than R/T's ~205 trq. Weight plays a factor in this equation as well, but I do not know the weight on Cobalts as well. But the factor that is probably holding that guy back from beating you... automatic. From my experience with "sport transmissions," they don't shift when they are supposed to in order to maximize the output of the motor.
I don't know, I'm probably just babbling. However, I believe that you (depending on how well you shift/drive) will win. That's just my two cents though, I'm probably wrong. Worst case scenario: you two tie and he then brags that he beat a 3/S. This is just my two cents, no need to listen to my words ver-batim.
