Exactly, don't even know they are in a race. Finally some intelligence here!
PS, he would lie because he is a cobalt driver; thats right I said it. The red headed step child of the performance economy car class. Always misunderstood, but also underestimated. Cobalt drivers like to prove their worth for beign tagged in such a way that it gets to them, and sooner or later many SS driver believe they can take cars out of their class and start labling (sp?) their cars factory freaks and I got the Driver mod. Do you really think GM Performance Division would leave their sporty economy car just a tune away from walking their prized Corvette? Maybe in the early 80's, but in the Y2K I think not. Stick to what you guys do best, and that is beating the other four cylinders from across the pond and leave the rest to the big boys...
Now I am not saying it can't be done or anything, but to think a tune or measly stage 2 and you are in Corvette Territory (or dare I say any LS motor) is just assinine. I think the SC drivers are mostly back to knowing their place, but now there is a whole nother level of drivers in the TC era that need adjusting. Granted they are faster and have more potential, there is no reason for them to repeat history...

Is this where I throw the cobaltss.net flag and thunbs up smiley?

And I love the argument:
"But you have four more cylinders!"
Yeah? I also have half a ton on you... literally! CSS Curb weight? 2800lbs. GTO Curb Weight? 3800lbs.
And to top it off, you have a power adder.

A base model C6 would make your GTO look silly and in stock form GTO vs C6 is a slaughter. So what you should be saying is that people should see what a Z06 can do when they get there ass beat so bad by a base.

This works two ways in my situation, kids in Mustangs and other cool rides always seem to screw with me like I am one of the senior citizen Vette owners. Then they either see how old I am or I wax them off the next light.
Then there are car shows and cruise nights all of the high school guys want to see your Vette and then all of the old people come over and chase away everyone else. It is kind of funny to see the looks on older peoples faces when they see me and my GF get out of my car though. I have heard everything from "must be mom & dads" to "wonder who paid for that" I just laugh it off.

Awwwww I was right again and now your mad you are stuck with your tank. And don't call me a troll I was here long before you even owned a Cobalt.
You and your GTO club don't like getting a taste of your owm medicine do you, like it or not a C6 is 10X the car a GTO is so get over it.
Can your GTO pull .99g on the skidpad, Nope
Can your GTO do 195mph, Nope
Can your GTO brake like a Z06, Nope
Can your GTO run low 12's, Nope
My base C6 Z51 can, not bad for stock, huh.
That and then theres the fact that your GTO will never look like this.

V8s are cool and everything.. and everyone brags on how they have daily drivin 11s LSx bla bla bla... if you have a fast car be cool not a douch! if you have 2.0s so much stay off our site! If you want to pick a fight with a cobalt 2.0 why dont you guys go on a evo site and pick fights with some evo8 or evo9 bad asses. i bet you will get your asses chewed out by some 2.0 daily drivin 10sec cars. Give the cobalt some time and it will be a monster.
WHY CANT WE ALL GET ALONG! If this is a cobalt site let us have fun and talk about our kills!

Now LS2 guy lets not hate, we share the same motor you know (you didn't want to wait for the improved LS3?). Yes mod for mod the vette will be faster, but there is a reason I bought the GTO over the vette. It is far more comfortable, has a better interior, seats four in comfort, better fits my 6'5" frame, cheaper insurance, better style (that is in the eye of the beholder, but the C5 looked better to most people but girls would recognize a vette more so then a GTO), under stated looks that help keep the 5-0 from following me, rides better, I could go on and on (BTW, a C5 Z06 will out do all the numbers you posted son....). But I will agree the vette is a better performance car, maybe not so much a bargin though for you could pick up a GTO when both were new for far less then a vette. Besides, where was the vette bashing from the GTO people? Most GTO people trade up to the vette, some would rather mod their GTO to smash a vette instead to each their own. Besides, white with those base aluminum wheels is blah looking..... Ok, back to the LS versus the four cylinder crowd again. Whose side you on LS2 guy?

2) My C6 is cheaper to insure than my GTO was.
3) Base GTO $32,000 Base C6 $44,000 and worth every bit more.
4) A C6 Z51 is equal to a C5 Z06.
And I started bashing the GTO guys here because they have bashed about the great GTO here long enough. They post like the GTO is the baddest GM on the planet and are very far from correct. It would be the same as me acting like a Z06 might be a run for my stock Z51. It is also funny that they belive the only difference between a C6 and GTO is price and a few hunderd pounds. When in fact the Vette was built from the ground up as a sports car which makes it well worth the extra $10K.
As for my standings in LS vs Four cylinder crowd:
Anyone who sits here and pretends like displacement or number of cylinders defines a cars performance abilities is a god damn fool.

yea because he couldn't possibly be wrong when the documented curb weight is 3400+ lbs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontiac...2.80.932002.29
curb weight= 3440lbs
lmao if a WS6 weighed 3100 lbs....what would that make the curb weight of an LS1 Vette??? sub 3000 lbs lmao??

CSRT4:
car and driver: 3233 lbs
cars.com: 3189 lbs
When I took it to the track and weighed it on the scale it was around 3100 lbs with crap in the trunk and in the cab. Whats said by the media isnt always true.
Id say he needs to weigh it himself. Im sure its not 3100 lbs unless he stripped it down a lot.
He should go to one of those weigh in stations for trucks, or if a track has one weigh it there.
1) I like LS2's and wanted nothing to do with the LS3.
2) My C6 is cheaper to insure than my GTO was.
3) Base GTO $32,000 Base C6 $44,000 and worth every bit more.
