Anyone else notice this?

I know you are still a noob, but learn to take area47's word as gold. He is one of the most helpful and knowledgeable people on here as far as the cobalt goes especially tuning with hptuners from what I have read.
Oh, and not in my town no one really races me all the high schoolers have seen me out at the speedway and want nothing to do with my car.

Gold huh, so he could tell you a TC can beat a 06 viper stock from exactly a 36 punch and that is right then?
Now I know Area is playing hide the numbers game because he must be some big time street racer and doesn't want dominic to know what his economy car is putting down, but he better be putting down 450+ considering it is the middle of summer and he was "blowing the tires off" over 50 mph.
Thanks for being grown up about the name calling area...

I was trying to find this earlier and was curious, what does each gear go to in each speed?
I understand the whole fail wheel drive and weight transfer. But in the middle of summer and blowing them off is different then bust them a little loose. If it was winter and was on cold slick asphalt then yeah I can see that from the torque hit of the TVS, but this just isn't cutting it. I would love to see a video of his car laying down some tracks (that is what happens when you go spinning past someone from a 50 punch) a la this car.

Yes it is more powerful, but he is still spinning and when that happens you get tracks. Spinning rubber + road = tracks.
Up for it area?

What kind of tires you running area? Size too...

You two do realize how much hp it takes to "blow" the tires off from a 50 mph rolling start past the guy he was racing to maybe 70mph? I am betting he heard a chirp when he let go of the clutch quickly then maybe his clutch started slipping or he mistook the quick rev of second gear to be spinning.
Gold huh, so he could tell you a TC can beat a 06 viper stock from exactly a 36 punch and that is right then?
Now I know Area is playing hide the numbers game because he must be some big time street racer and doesn't want dominic to know what his economy car is putting down, but he better be putting down 450+ considering it is the middle of summer and he was "blowing the tires off" over 50 mph.
Thanks for being grown up about the name calling area...

I had a douche in a 550 cut me off WOT in traffic, My maxima at the time was no match of course, but he got stuck behind a semi, and when we resumed cruising, I managed to get in front of him and tested his ability to dodge pennies out my sunroof. Id love to see him again with the TC

Well I have seen a few 65+ drivers not doing much and those women who drive on the steering wheel not do much but around my area they're basically tearing up the road (and dodging or hitting every pothole they see). They're actually some of the more annoying drivers on the road.

Hey hey, we need to stick together. Besides, join date!
Yeah, like I am going to lose any dignity on a cobalt forum.
Oh, and it is Owned not pwned...
Now where did the hate on BMW drivers come from? No I don't own one nor desire to, but not all base model 3 series and 5 series drivers are idiots... I will say they seem to be the ones most likely to not signal though!

yes, thats right. i mistook it all. the fact you were i my car, or have been in my car makes it all better. you know so much about me, it's scary. stalker much?
450? no. street racer? no. stopped doing that.
30mph hit. since you know so much about my car and what it is capable of. as it sits right now. what does it put to the ground?
yes, that's it. a join date matters. that's all that matters apparently. you lost dignity when you posted on here. pride on this forum is not an option. this is the ******* internet. you picked the fight. not me.
shouldn't you be hitting up some swap meets for more amc parts?

It's true. Being a Civic owner I have caught garbage from tons of people. But the people who talk crap no matter what you have more than likely don't know much about cars in the first place. I usually don't say anything back. I offer to take them for a ride however. That's when the bullshit stops.

I got ppl wanting to race all the time when I was in my Integra. I hardly ever obliged unless it was a CRX that had a passenger and a coffee can muffler. Now no one wants to race me in the Balt. So no, I haven't really noticed it OP. It could also be that I have debadged it...
