Whats Up with the hate?
So I joined a few car groups in my area. Im a car guy and love to go to meets and see what others have around. On top of that I like to go to the drag strip and see what times I can get. Nothing crazy, yeah I talk **** from time to time... but mostly to joke or have fun. But damn I have never had soo much hate on my car in a loooong time. I will literaly put "damn missed the fun" on a post of two cars racing. Almost instantly get hit with Justin you have a cobalt, stfu...
Sad thing is my cobalt is far from stock, right now its running 13.1 easily in the 12's with some launch practice and tires.... it pulls like a damn freight train and I love it.. People think its a slow ass car still, sure your corvette cammed out and decked out running 11's is faster, but **** doesnt mean I cant at least chill with the scene.... Dont get it, freaking people in Srt4's get less hate then Cobalts, and it kinda pisses me off from time to time.

My friend that works at a Toyota dealer wanted to hear my exhaust because he thought it would sound Ricey and he never gave any real respect to my car but I mean I just rev it up for him and he really liked the sound of it and thought it was actually pretty nice. He must've been used to my old cobalt lol. He thought the power specs were pretty nice as well.

took me about 2 years to get any respect in my area and it all started with my supercharged cobalt lol. had so much hate until i either took someone for a ride or raced them lol. then i got my turbo balt and now im on E47 and guys in my town/area always tell the "new" kids who think they have a fast car that they arent fast until they beat me lmfao. no one has beat me yet so its pretty amusing to have people do that for me though hahaha
