lose to what exactly>?
the motor?? :ugh2:
maybe he means you should have gotten the SS supercharged model
instead of the N/A auto tranny model you decided on.
racing N/A auto cobolts & cavys…
my motor was never in any cavalier, you are thinking of the n/a 2.2 ecotec fro the later year cavys but they even changed it a little from how it was in the cavys it has a bit more power and electric steering ,
so you are trying to tell me that a naturally aspirated four cylinder automatic transmission that runs low to mid 15’s in the 1/4 mile is not a good performer? show me another 4 cylinder automatic car that is n/a that does that.
i think you are talking about a bigger engine which isnt what im talking about i said 4 cylinder engine you are probably talking about an 8 cylinder
i’m saying racing a 4cyl automatic is :greddy:
if your gonna race it…why the hell did you get an auto?
its not a “Good” performer…its an average performer
i don’t know exact figured off the top of my head but i think there are other 4cyl that run those times? Mazda3, newmiata, RSX, sentra SER, etc…
still an ecotec :blue:
I’ve never lost… never won either…
well for many reasons i had to buy an automatic, i do know how to drive a stick…anyway its mostly just a daily driver that i want to be fairly quick nothing wrong with an automatic, i think you misunderstood what i was trying to say, all those cars you listed that do better 1/4’s are manual. i said automatic 4 cyl’s that do better times. so i would say for being an auto 4 it is a great performer
that means you never tried
ding ding ding ding…
:bsflag: i know, b/c i drive one
ehhhh i think your using the word “great” a little to loosely
but if you keep your standards low you don’t get disappointed.
learn…its not that hard
thats fine but then why are you racing it??
i don’t think i did…you race a 15-16sec automatic…ok so now what.
i don’t think they are any slower then the mighty cobolt
they are all 15-16sec cars.
aveo = dawoo
cav = coblat
ecotech has alot of potential though…
are you against racing or something?
all i can say is i tried to enlighten you but its all good anyway…
again read what you quoted, i KNOW how to drive a stck but didnt have the oppurtunity to buy one, and in my experience most 4 cyl autos run in the high 16’s to the 20’s in the 1/4 mile is all im trying to say. and im racing it because its fun, that should be a good enough reason, also im not saying that my car is the greatest im just saying i think its a good car with all things considered. please dont be offended or anything im just trying to get my point across
Damn I didnt know it was N/A thats even more funnier.
Dont quit racing, just try and wait for the track to open, an automatic boosted car would be sick,
