And you find the same **** on clubrsx , goat forums , or anywhere else there are men with fast cars and no dinks..
Everywhere there is a car forum that allows racing, you will see people spreading it on thick... I wouldnt single out cobalt owners anymore that I would , lets say, over confident evo drivers...
The viper I do remember and I conceed that it was weak. My brother in law has an SRT-10 Mamba edition. Even with my mods and tune I get beaten down silly like a stepchild. I went for a rip in a twin turbod 1500whp srt-10 and my eyeballs caved in. Seriously, it hurt after...I played FB (14 years playin ball' including college) and the launch hit me that hard... lol That guy (a DR.) has since totalled it coming back from a meet down in Arizona. He wanted to drive it back. He's part of the ontario viper club and I get out with them every once and a while.... I am just a ******* pylon.

Hell, after I posted a build idea thread a local vendor PM'd me saying they would help AND a member on the forums running the setup I want also PM'd me info and his phone number for any questions I had. You would never get this on css.net, especially being a newbie.

But yet you still hang around here. 
So, someone blew some smoke up yer **** and now you're all tinkly ...
I "was" interested in an evo at one time. However if I go AWD it will be in a v8 truck.
I have seen **** fly on both those forums, quite a few times. They are not immune to BS, you just feel that way just cause another member whats to touch your 'engine'...
I hear it starts that way over there. Some guy offers to build up your "Engine", then you show up at his garage only to see him standing there naked...

/\ I need clearance up here. AWD alone wont cut it, my buddies in STI's are to scared to drive them they way they are supposed to be driven cause they owe so much... lol
I can see me getting an old school wrex for the hell of it though. Only the Evo X lives here and for 56 000 they can pound it up their ass, thats over twice what I paid on my balt. I couldnt walk on the deal I was being given on my tc. 8000 more to go and she's paid off. March 31st I take ownership of my uncles 68 ragtop 427 vette.

The other forums Im on like caliberforums.com and evolutionm.net have little to no threads like this. Hell the stickys on the evolutionm.net are more useful than ANYTHING I have ever seen on this site. Those guys really know their **** down pack, and there is virtually no flaming AT ALL. The mods are very strict and the people are super helpful.
Hell, after I posted a build idea thread a local vendor PM'd me saying they would help AND a member on the forums running the setup I want also PM'd me info and his phone number for any questions I had. You would never get this on css.net, especially being a newbie.

And you are act the same way! Thats whats so funny.
You make it sound like this is the only forum out there that fosters nutswingers...
Does it really suprise you that some kid is going to buy a 260hp well handling car, and not be super impressed with it? Really....

unfortunately I live in a place that has a lot of poverty and out of the 175K people around here we only have about 500 cars around here that are worthy of even smashing the gas for .. It is very rare for me to come across cars like your camaro who actually are down with it .. After you said you got excited I LOL' because I know the feeling .. Not that I am driving around everyday looking for street races but damn not a whole lot to choose from here .. People just don't take pride in their cars around here its either all trash ghetto whips or super modified supras evos srt's Sti's brand new camaros ( who these people are so affraid to drive around here because everyone gawks at them about hitting telephone poles because they havent seen much .. few cobras around and some shelbys
one guy has a green bullet mustang I never even heard of em till I looked it up so..
Its either a rust bucket or full blown set ups here no middle class ... I just take the oppertunity if it comes my direction lol
I mean you will drive around seeing nothing but rust buckets then you will see ferraris zr1's lambos .. I mean it is possibly the weirdest place I have ever seen as far as cars are concerned .. we gotta drap strip here and I think most people are into bracket racing here .... I am not into that style it just doesn't float my boat..

well thats great and all but your missing the whole point of my post. an evo/sti has way more potential to be faster than your car.

I traded in my OTTP stage 1 w/ full boltons 06 ss/sc for an 08 evo x back in april. The handling, and overall feel of the evo was amazing...but it was slower than my cobalt was. I race my buddy with a gm s2 w/ boltons 07 ss/sc from a 40 roll, and lost by about a car. Yes, a stage 2 supercharged cobalt will beat a bone stock evo x from a roll. The stock tune on the evo x is garbage...they only dyno about 240ish to the wheels, and they weigh 3550 pounds. i went and got a stage 0 base flash from AMS for $500, and beat that same friend of mine by a car and half from the same 40 roll. Just that flash put me at about 295-305awhp, up about 60 over stock. made all the difference in the world. bone stock evo x with just the ams base flash, i wuss launched my car at 3k rpms (instead of the 6k) 2 step, and ran a 13.8 @ 102. had I launched the car off the 2 step, that would have been a low 13s pass, with only a flash. I still have stock weight, stock exhaust, everything. once i get my exhaust system, and get another reflash to accomodate my intake and exhaust mods, my car could pull a high 12. it's definitely a solid platform, and is an absolute blast to drive on a daily basis. i just got some new continental extreme contact DWS all season tires for winter...and i cant wait to drive the evo in snow!
I miss my cobalt, being my first car and all, but the evo is such a sweet car. The cobalt SS is still the best bang for your buck for performance, and yes it's very easy to make a cobalt faster than my evo...but the evo is still in an entirely different league. every car has its place in the market, and i honestly dont regret buying either of them.

now why can't more people think like this instead of endless pissing contests?

i skiped all of this. i guess what i was saying 1badss/sc was that i read it as (fastest 1/4 mile/handeling car for the money) which IMO you could buy a 240/MK3 SUPRA/GTR/MR2/ so forth for cheaper and make faster for cheaper kind of idea. only thing that turns me off about a evo (8-9) is the price. But you pay for what you get.

True. It all depends on what your goal is for the car. Not a lot of people plan on dirt racing their cars, but for those that do, you cant beat awd. As far as winters up here, I have a good beater and it stops just fine. If someone comes sliding through and slams into me, at least I can have a good laugh, clear out the glovebox and call a taxi.lol. I would love another awd Cj7 and plan do buy one for next winter... That's what you need up here when youre hitting the hills and the white **** is fallin... In the summer, my fwd slobalt is a lot of fun on the road course for lapping days and suffices for now. Passes a lot cars, even those awd ones :P

to be fair, a awd car doesnt automaticaly make it good at handeling, AWD tends to understeer alot..and 240's would handle great with the right mods
but i see your point, the evo can be made fast and still reliable.

ACD covers that
. I never knew there was so much to the mitsu and sti AWD tranny's until I read this:http://www.mitsubishi-cars.co.uk/features/ayc.asp
Both cars have a lot of nanny features. Me and my friends joke that the car is so easy to drive it practically drives itself.
mother nature got wet and sloppy last night from 12am-4am. I woke up this morning at normal time thinking it didnt snow.... Late for work : /

Subaru's DCCD is a driver or computer controlled torque split between front and rear. The % of split varies by MY of STI iirc. The Mitsu system is always 50:50.
