Hi JD!!!! I love my SRT-4 (which will be putting down over 300HP after this weekend). But, even though it would eat my 05 GT for lunch, there is no way I would give up my GT for the SRT-4. SRT-4's are neat, light little cars, but they aren't Mustangs!!!

. Stang owners why do any of you give a damn what a Cobalt SS does?

because when some post some stupid **** on a MUSTANG board, some of us (I don't really care anymore because there are ~ number of threads about this subject) feel the need to correct the stupid **** that some stupid person posted.

Or at least I think thats the reason.

I apoligize wasnt trying to be ignorant at all I just said that in a 1/4 mile drag race even if the srt-4 is a 14.0 second car the 4.6 gt comes in at 14.0 @98 mph.I know this because I own a 01 GT that "was" completly stock came in at those numbers at the drag strip.What I did say is that I am hearing from the 4 banger group peole say that the rice burners like the cobalt SS and the srt-4 will walk all over a GT like it's nothing.all in all im not knocking the cobalt nor the srt-4.
This doesn't even make sense. How are American made cars that actually put out huge numbers stock considered rice? Is it because of the stock wing? Mustang GTs have non-functional hood scoops and non-functional brake ducts...so are Mustangs rice? I surely think not. Is it because SRTs and Cobalts are four bangers with forced induction and not "muscle cars"? I surely hope not. Please educate yourself.

95% of you don't even drive Stock GT's let alone raced a Cobalt SS with a stock GT. How do you know what the outcome would be? I'm not going to sit here and make up a bunch of bs for the hell of it. I know from a dig I have no chance vs a GT. But from a roll I've had a lot of success. And you know i'm not here to knock Mustangs one bit. I like Mustangs althought im not a Ford guy. But A lot of you people are going off hear say, inside do say do. I'd say maybe 15% of these people on here with have raced a Cobalt, with your Stang being Moded. When the Spring time comes, i'll record me beating that GT by a fender to show you guys i'm not bsing you guys. I have no need or right to lie.

I get the biggest kick out of these people who are telling me and post that there stock cobalt ss or noen srt-4 will walk a 01-04 manual GT in a drag race.They are no better than 15 second cars let alone 4 cylinders that have to be reved at 6500 rpms just to get em over 200 HP.Any how I just that's pretty hillarious

Congrats....You just made the most ignorant post for the month of March. You should be so proud.
bwhahahaa

Stock, street-tired supercharged Cobalts are very solid mid 14 second cars (maybe even low?) and will trap at about 100. With some traction and a favorable DA I wouldn't be surprised to see a stock one kiss 13.9.

For $1500 i'll have a Slobalt in the high 12's.


Let us know when this actually happens and post a slip.
