I am paranoid: Each and every time a friend gets in my car, I obviously want to show him how my basically stock SS/TC hauls asses, because it does... when I'm alone in it. I always end up disappointed thinking "How come my car feels that sluggish with only 170 more pounds in it ?"

Did anyone else here experienced the PIED phenomenon? If so, let's start a group so we can all support each other.

Just wanted to share this
(Trifecta treatment on the way )

 

yea, it's called extra weight lol.

 

lol yup

you dont notice it as much in cars with more TQ.

 

You won't notice it period once you've got you're power by Trifecta. Trust me!

 

haha I notice that too even worse is when you have 2 or 3 girls in the car and you put your foot in it and the car feels like a Toyota Prius hahaahh jk (it's not that bad).

 

how bout......stop hangin out with fatties

thats the first thing that popped in my head when i saw the title "fat ass"

 

This be the troof..

But i do not suffer from PIED unless there is 4 heads in the vehicle..

Too low for a fat hoe

Lmao! that be some funny ****..Toyota Prius BAHAHA...but its kinda true..

 

yea i get the same thing in my ss/sc lol anyone more then me in the car and its slow

 

should change this thread title to "fat people slow my car down"

 

everytime I show someone what my cobalt SS can do, I take em from a 30-40 MPH roll in 2nd gear all the way to redline , NLS into 3rd then let off.

My one friend a few days ago said "Dude, my head snapped back and hit the seat pretty hard, I had no idea this thing was that fast!"

I just smiled and said "Yeah, its pretty quick"

 

I remeber taking my dad for a spin when I first got the car who is no stranger to quick cars (owns an Audi A6 with the 2.7 Twin Turbo motor) and when I put my fut down he was reaching for the oh **** handles

 

We have oh **** handles? wtf, how come I didn't hear about this!?

 

Epic. Fat chicks = car slow! That is called your power-weight ratio.... No fat chicks will EVER sit in my car! I tell them the donut shop is down the road, and then they start to run (or walk as fast as they can).

 

Tell the bitch to pull here stoobs (stomach and *****) off the armrest....... so you can shift the damn thing .

 

Don't forget about filling it up.. My car feels diff with a full tank. Weight takes away from any car.

 

When my brother or father (200lbs each) are in the car ...my car won't do 2nd gear rolling burnouts hardly at all ..... when i'm alone it does them when ever i want. Sucks i was telling them about it... then go to show em and it hardly does it.

 

Trust me eventually you will think its slow again. I do. Everyone that rides in it says thats its fast but Ive gotten used to it.

 

Yah doesnt it suck how that happens.... No matter what, you always adjust to what you have, so then you need more! lol its a never ending cycle.

 

agreed !! modding a car is a terrible drug, haha.

 

Yep it's just like this old saying......

"You show me the hottest women in the world..........And I'll show you one guy that's sick of banging her"



.....we are never happy.

 

Um you guys are retarded, fat chicks fix wheel hop.

 

It's probably in your head. Cars always feel slower from the driver's seat because you're the one making the control inputs, so you expect and are underwhelmed by everything that happens. I've found this happens more when you're trying to show off, since you're even MORE focused on how fast your car feels.

When I was younger I always found it funny that my friend's 2003 Grand Am GT felt quicker than my dad's 2005 Altima 3.5SE, despite the fact that my dad's car annihilated his from any speed.

So like I said, it's in your head.

 

 

bigger the **** the more it (wheels) sticks

 

They also can throw off your camber
