Some of the good things about them. If only pontiac hadn't bastardized them and let them look like the holden version.

That was funny! I tried to REP you but I have to spread it around.

They did a lot of things to make them cheaper. I wish I had the Automatic Digital Climate Controls, a Door lock button (not on 04-05), and the center-stack guages. But also glad that it was not as expensive as it's counterpart.

get back on the bench.
thats where your best racing is.

I assure you I have spent more time on the track than you have sir better yet 90% of the people here.

I don't give a **** if I can only muster a 13.13 and could maybe squeeze a 12.89 out of here if I only made 3 more passes. I had my fun in my F-Bodies I don't need to go beat the **** out of my GTO to know what it can do.

By the way when the hell is it magazine racing to say it takes X HP to beat a stock GTO?

Thats called facts *******.

your not racing a car you are racing a driver, it doesn't matter if you have 700hp and can't drive your not goona do good. So stop with all this it takes x amount of hp to beat a gto becuase it doesn't.

So basically LIKE I ******* SAID THE FIRST TIME.

If you don't have the HP to beat a car and do it is because the other guy fucked up.

Quit trying to make yourself look right and me wrong.

I said that well before you did.

Because every time a Cobalt claims to beat a GTO, the GTO guys bring up the #'s and pull out the ol "Must of been a really bad driver" card. Swear to God that must be the credo you all live by.

And for you to say that you have spent more time at the track that 90% of the people on here is extremly arrogant. You are either really old or really stupid... But I wont judge.

PS... 14 pages on our way to completeing the master plan!

All of the ricer DSM's would be crushed by the modded small block GM's so this could go on for ever.

Why even say you know of cars that would crush my GTO? It is a stock GTO that runs low 13's high 12's anything faster running 12.9 or better would be faster.

Wow I am so offended.


And the time at the track statement wasn't meant to be egotistical but the most of the people talking **** to me are just spectators spewing ****.

well since slow sho quoted a statement about MODDED cobalts beating a gto's at the track and said they must have been bad drivers, i think it is very appropriate to talk about modified cars.

Well the same factors that lead to 14 second LS2's and 15 second SS/SC's lead to skewed spectator opinions.

Although it all goes back to what I said before. It's pretty clear how much power it takes for a SRT-4 oe SS/SC to beat a LS1 GTO or LS2 GTO. 9 out of 10 people that post a win don't have what it really takes.

true, but he is acting like not modded cobalt could take down even a stock ls2. that is the ls_ god mentallity that pisses people off. i do agree tho that alot of posts on this site are total bull. i remember somebody from MF linked to a thread here like a year or two ago where someone was talking about how he could take out gallardo's from a roll because h had stage 2. LOL. somebody please find that thread!

Cobalts are not fast! I saw a stage 2 car lose to a stock Nissan Sentra SE-R at the track.

Sentra SE-R > Stage 2 SS/SC

I also, but that is what racing is all about! Driver skill. If we all went by what the car should do then there would be no reason to race people. 90 percent of the fun of racing is racing something that should kick your ass, but beating it. This sis what the sport of racing is created on, and why all the cars are basically the same. It's about the driver, NOT the car.

That is all part of racing but betaing some fanboy asshat who cannot drive his GTO or what ever isn't really a win worth posting.

That is why all of the hell breaks loose for the GTO vs SS/SC threads.

When you hand a fanboy his ass just feel good that you tought him a lesson don't go post a win on CSS.net

HELL YA IT DOES! LOL. But why not post it? Nothing wrong with winning by default.

You have to understand man, we are only 4 cylinder cars, so any win we get... WE TAKE IT and are happy. No big deal right?
Think of it like this... You are a freshman in HS and a senior picks a fight with you, you throw the first punch and after you hit him he knocks his head on the groung and gets knocked out. Regardless of how you did it, you KNOCKED HIM THE **** OUT!!!!

I think everysingle person on here agrees that 99% of the time a GTO will pull a Cobalt... but let us have that 1% with out all your bitching, moaning and excuses please. I mean isn't there anything going on on the GTO forums that is even remotly exciting?!?!?!?
Basic message: If you are going to come on our site to play, play nice and STFU!
That is all.
