It's not that they can't be fast at all, it's just that most 6-cyl cars would EAT a stock 2.2, so why bother trying?

^^thank you cobalt racer... this guy was 30+ feet behind me and the speed limit was 45 and I was doing almost 90.... I did have to slam on my breaks for the car infront of me and the dude behind me got the brunt end of it and if he had not been racing either he wouldnt have needed to slam his breaks, ya dig?

And seriously my car from a 40mph roll hauls booty... not from pick up, but ive wasted a lot of v6's from 40mph roll....my girls jetta for example, she was a little flustered cause she paid more than me for her car and i was a good car length in front of her

Here's a concept: why didn't you just tuck in behind him rather than accelerate to 90mph? We all know your LT takes a fair bit of time to get there, so you definitely had time. You keep doing the **** you so proudly described and you'll become just another advocate for natural selection.

It's an I4, just FYI. First comment you've made I agree with, however... The 2.2 is a pretty good motor.

2.) I have read that tha OP was stupid to speed up and try to jump in front of tha GA, but ppl are forgett'n that tha GA did EXACTLY that, but failed.

3.) As for hitt'n tha breaks? Yeah, that was stupid as hell IF you slammed on them. But if you had to slow back down for tha speed limit or due to another car in front of you, then it's not tha end of tha world. If he made tha jump in front of tha GA and it put him too close to another driver, then yeah he should be slapped.
A lot of v6 cars are very slow too, heh. I know the 2.2 can take its fair share of v6 base models rolling around.
