The rule about wearing long pants is an odd one. I've been out to Moroso on several occaisions over the years and noticed a difference between some of the guys working the track.

So Cody you're telling me that if you have it in 3rd gear cruising and doing 35 and you just put it to the floor and it will just flat out go? No. Been there done that.
if youre in the wrong gear for sudden acceleration, no car will just get up and go...but superchargers dont lag...
Yea but to sit there and say it's because of tire spin is beyond retarded. Hell GT's spin to. Let them use that excuse. Driver for Driver a 99 to 04 GT is quicker from a dig but closer from a roll but who cares but yeah you always find a bad driver.

but with a "performance fwd" (and im using that term loosely) the weight transfer is working against you...hell, my daily driver is an ATX with 210ish hp, and if i launch it hard (as hard as i can with an atx) it spins the tires, and my car only runs high 15s/low 16s. while the GT also has traction issues, the weight transfer is working in the drivers advantage. any fwd car with enough power to break traction will have more traction issues in comparison to a RWD car.
From a roll the GT will just plain lose unless the SS/SC driver misses 4th and 5th.
Your so pathetic cody.
Of all the Coblat vs GT videos I have seen, I have NEVER seen a stock GT go down to one from a roll or a dig.
You CANNOT run with a SRT-4 from a roll, and I have seen a couple 5spd GTs do this or stick pretty dammed close.
IF you have john force in the gaybalt and my grandma in the GT then the coblat will come out on top. unfortunatly for you john force wouldn't be caught dead in one.
GT > coblat + a truckload of naked girls
Edit: Your OUT of your mind if you think a 14.50 is "on par" with a stock 5spd GT. You are comparing terrible GT drivers against the 2 or 3 people that can sratch out a 14.50 (instead of the typical 14.90+) with the coblat. Anyone that cannot drive a GT to at least a 14.2-14.1 simply doesn't know how to drive a car on the strip.

I'm sorry but I have to disagree with the bold part.

Thing is though with equal drivers one who know how to launch the GT and one who knows how to launch the SS/SC it would be a drivers race.
And Ursslow do you know what your talking about, you think wheelspin isn't the hold back from a dig? Of course the GT has wheel spin but no where near what a S/C FWD experiences. I had a 2003 GT and the only time I spun as much as my SS/SC was when I was trying to.
And will everyone please stop with the SS/SC run high 14's BS

No, a slowbalt will NOT run with a GT if the drivers are equal. And MOST slowbalts ARE running 14.8~ not the mid/low 14s you claim. Lets see ONE video of a slowbalt running a 14.0 on the stock tires......
A good GT driver should see a 14.0 or 14.1. A awsome slowblat driver might see a 14.50 if he is lucky, with a hell of a 60' (for a slowbalt anyway)
BTW, so now not only have you owned a LT1, LS1, and a vette, but a GT too eh?? BS.
your so full of ****.

if i may...while i wont agree that a slowbalt is equal to a new edge GT, there are ALOT of new edge GT owners here who would be happy to get near a 13 stock...

Granted. There are also alot of new edge GT drivers that cannot drive :)
And there are ALOT of slowbalt drivers out there that would cum in their pants to pull off a 14.50.....
If you can't drive a 99-04 GT 5spd coupe to at LEAST a 14.40 you need to go back to drivers ed. Even without powershifting etc it is easily capable of this. A slowbalt is not.
I am not attempting to say that a GT > all, not by any means. But I would rather have a 99 GT with 100,000 miles on it than a brand new gaybalt.

eh..to each their own..one of my friends back home opted for a slowbalt over a new Z...but he loves his cavalier...i wouldnt drive one, because im not fooled...this car could have just as easily been named the cavalier SS...
the cavabalt drivers will say "there are no common parts" but theyre made in the same plant, and there was little retooling. the previous square cavaliers were vastly different from the last gen cavalier, but they were both still a cavalier..so i guess that if some people can look past the fact that they drive a renamed, new gen cavalier, so be it...its for that reason, and the cheap ass interior and such, that i didnt buy an srt4.
