Sorry if this is a repost, but it's new to me and I just saw it is new to Autoblog:

Makes me want to replace my pads right away!

 

sad to see our car get pwned by a cobalt.

 

Gives a good idea what sort of modifications non-CR owners should make to greatly improve handling.

Stiffen up the front and get some good brake pads

 

Everything got pwnd by the Cobalt. Even the Evo. How the Lotus did so bad is beyond me.

 

I'd like to see the new Cobalt put against a new CR on a real track with real drivers.

I don't ever buy R&T / C&D shit.

Send it to BMI and we'll have a Hot Version showdown haha

 

Isnt it placed in order of class first then times? Looking at the cobalt sucked compared to the LL2 and LL3 class cars

 

they said in one of the car review on there that it was a longer track so horsepower definitely counts, so i think the lotus and s2000 we're as good on the straighaways as the bigger engines

 

well i mean if u look at the downloadable pdf chart. the cobalt has higher top speed, exit speed, laptime, etc... and its not like it was close.

 

..and of course there is NO bias or outside influence / interest that would perhaps sway a landslide victory article for the Cobalt SS.

I mean GM and other North American automakers have NEVER been known to have their stats padded..

It's especially SO unlikely after the complete bomb that the last SS/SC Cobalt was.

*rolls eyes*
