Scion TC needs a shower

To wash the smell of Cobalt SS exhaust off himself...

I encountered a determined gear gnashing Scion Tc today. We started side by side after a light around 20 mph and I simply outmuscled him all the way to 4th gear where I braked with like a 5 car lead and growing. Well 4 or 5 times we went at it from different speeds before I got stopped next to him at the next light.

He yells over...:"If you didn't have that supercharger i'd definitely pull you".
I smiled and said: "I think they forgot to put one on this car at the factory".
Him="WTF?? That's not supercharged..?"
Me= "Nope...normally aspirated."
Him= "You're ^%@&^%* me right?"
Me="Not in this case, no....."
Him= "Great"..."You suck!!!"
Me= (both laughing now) " I know I should act my age"
Him= "Yeah stop picking on me ya geezer (with sarcasm I hope).."

We exchanged waves and drove off laughing..Good sport. He was really banging gears trying to stay with me...poor guy.

Nice, good times.

For some reason, some people refuse to believe that the ss has an NA option. Im still in an argument with some honda guys about it.

There is a crew of WRX's on another forum that a guy reported losing to an SS, and other guys made it a point to go race an ss. most of them reported pulling bus lengths on the SS, so they were more than likely beating SS n/a's, and struggling with the SS/SC.
