Lame kill alert

Ok, this weekend I went to Mississippi and back (Corinth, MS). It was a long ass trip, including like 3" of slush on the roads for awhile, not cool. I was driving a bone stock (down to the air filter) 02 LS1 automatic T/A. I had it wrapped up around 75-80ish on the highway after I had just got done playing around with a late model SS Monte Carlo, when all the sudden outa nowhere comes another one, (on the interstate), I'm thinking, aww hell yea, finally a race. He flys by me at probably 90 something and motioned to me to bring it... Needless to say, I let him get a little farther ahead, then mashed the throttle, took a little bit to catch up, and flew by him at a little over 120 like he was standing still. Well, thats the end of my lame kill story.

Cliff Notes... 02 LS1 T/A Raped a 0* SS Monte Carlo

Yeah nothing can go up against the Ls1.. except those newer Montes like the 06 ones.. with the 5.3L v8.

The monte SS is supercharged... a whole 240 HP, maybe 260 if it was a newer model (i think, it upped to 250 or 260) with an LS1.... what did you expect???

I know, I know, I knew I was gonna rape him... We were trying to get anything to race, we ended up playing with a 05 GT, he got the hit and then we were dead even till we had to break for the semi. Played with a Mercades SUV and car (don't remember the number, Something 55) Tried to get a STS-V Cadilliac, but he exited when we got room. Screwed around with a 00ish Z28 Camaro, kicked our ass.... It was a good trip all in all.

The mercedes car... C55?? SLK55?? SLK looks more sporty/roadsterish, C55 is a coupe... theyre nice cars, I've driven many C55s and a few SLK55s... those are the most common 55's

The newer Monte Carlos arent all supercharged. From 04 and up is when the Monte SS because a supercharged 3.8 rated at a 250 HP.. if it is 03 and down the SS is rated at a very weak 200 HP.

2004 was the first year the ss's got supercharged.....before then they had 200 hp and 225 tq with the 3.8's according to http://auto.consumerguide.com/Auto/U...reviewshowall/ about 3/4 down the page....

what would win, ss supercharged cobalt VS ss supercharged Monte carlo?? Both stock and both are new 06

I have to say I was impressed with the Cobalt SS. They are much much quicker than they look but I would still have a buffet on ones ass.

Uhh.. thats a really dumb question because the new Monte SS has the 5.3L v8 Ls4 or something.. pushing 303ish HP. BUT it would mean that the race is going to be pretty close because the Cobalts are pretty quick.
