HHR Mod

[SRD Art]

I heard they're based on a Cobalt platform. I saw a stock Cobalt SS run 14.50's up here in the altitude (4500 ft). I'd Imagine an HHR isn't too much heavier? If it could pull 15.0's that's fairly respectable, my wagon with 2.41 factory gears and a torquey 400 has only run 15.70's at altitude. The HHR probably gets twice the mileage and is probably faster! Is yours a panel or a regular HHR?

I got the wagon style, the wagon is hard enough to see out of, I cannot imagine how many more blindspots the panel has.

I got a 14.1 last time at the track. I have gotten a best of 42mpg. I was drafting like crazy to get that. But 28-30mpg at 70-75mph is pretty average. I think there is 13 second buried in in there somewhere.

Don't buy the stick shift they really suck. The Turbo auto is a pretty decent like car for tiny little crap box that they are.

You're the perfect height for that car. Nice and Short!

Dang! no kidding, 13's right around the corner! You suppose it's stable enough to pull an 8 ft enclosed trailer? Sounds like I found my future ride, just gotta fix those head lights, they're killing me! lol!

One of mybuddies is my height but longer from the waist upand I have to open the sun roof for his big melon.

I smoked a 2008 tundra tonight on the way to the drags. I pulled him by lengths from 55 to 120, I was behind him and passed him in the left lane. He said he was embarassed when we got to the track. When it down shifts 2 gears and goes to full boost it rips for stupid 4 cyl cracker box.
