    i'd like to see what my car would do with somebody who could drive it. the ss/sc's were mid-14 second cars. profiling people my age, probably high 14's. i'll tell you firsthand that a near stock gtp would be seeing space before the taillights of a turbo ss if you went from a 30 roll. i'd probably start in second, give a half a car to you, and then pull... hard. i really just can't put into words how quick it feels like i'm at 100. it traps 3mph more than my firebird did on it's best run, and that's with me babying it off the line and running mid to high 14's. they're just stupid under boost. like, spinning tires and getting torque steer so bad that if i turn traction control off, stability control cuts fuel at the top of second, ~60mph. a cobalt shouldn't run like that.
