He used to have a wrx and I was telling his girlfriend(my sister) about the meet and your wrx and told him how fast it was and how you lived in winchester and she basically described you and was telling me how mikey gave his downpipe and intake to someone that fit your description.
So i figured it was you but guess not. Thought it was a small world after all.

I would post the ones I had but using a camera outside at 90 mph usually isn't easy; both on the person taking the pictures and the camera itself. We even tried to make a short movie with the different formations but his camera died while we tried to save it. Damn foreign electronics! lol

Ok, I found the thread...the wif was right about you all talking about the damn dinner rolls...what's up with the fastest driver thing for sponsoring?!?!? I won't be able to get my pics up till this weekend...too much going on at work this week and with second job too...now they want to make me a road supervisor for the security gig. I don't know if I want that much responsibility though...depends on how much the money is I guess.

CobaltSSChick, thanks for the comment/rep!
That pic does it no justice, as my 19"s are off (bent wheel, getting a new one next paycheck) and my Powerslot front rotors are off (took them off b/c one was making a grinding noise, already ordered a new one).
For some waaaaayyyyyy better pics, I have a thread in the wheel/tire section (created it sometime in Aug) and a thread in the pics/videos section (late Aug) with the 19"s on and such. Check it out.....my car looks much more impressive in those shots.

Lol, yeah I know, but the wheels make the car. Without them, I just look like any other Cobalt. The 2.4SS dosent have a fancy spoiler, grill mesh in the rear, and a front lip like the SS/SC, so the wheels really helped give it character. Maybe you guys haven't seen many white 2.4's or something, but I've seen at least 5 others within 50 miles since I got my car, and other than the lowering, which isn't really that noticeable, and the exhaust, it just looks like a basic Cobalt to me.
Look at all the trouble Remedy One went through with getting some off the wall wheels. 19x8.5 front and 19x10 rear. That's nuts. And he did it to look different than all the other silver SS/SC's. Other than that, sure, he's got some hood stripes and some projectors.....but the wheels are what give his car the most character.
I talk about my wheels a lot b/c I spent more money on them than any other one part. And yet, few Cobalt enthusiasts have even seen them. While yeah, I did it for me, and not for anyone else, I'd still love to have others appreciateq them, ya know? Some people are the same way with a turbo kit.....or a crazy stereo.....or wild body modifications. But for me, I'm all about the wheels.
What it really all boils down to is that I think my car looks too "blah" and boring without them on. When I first got the car, I was content with the stock 17"s. But after having the 19"s on, I just can't stand how my car looks with the stock 17"s on. Not to mention how low it sits with the 17"s.......too low......damn speedbumps. Its kinda like wearning no condom for a while, and then going back to wearing a condom. Just not satisfying, lol. So yeah, wheels are a big deal to me. Being a 2.4SS owner, I can't go too fast like you SS/SC owners, but I can damn sure look good on my daily commute.
