Default Re: Some "Dime Rockets" for the 4TH!

I see a supercharged Regal every day. Does that count?
If I could find a supercharged Cobalt with an automatic, I'd be racing it.

A 4 valve, supercharged (with it's own little intercooler built into it) engine at 205 HP?
I think that I'd take a chance on it.
