 Street Tuner Challenge build?

Anyone who watched this car being built on the series street tuner challenge knows what its all about. Honestly, the last episode where the took the 3 cars to the track was a joke, all of them basically blew up. But as i was saying, this is a stripped race car.. and was graded on 3 things. Interior, Exterior, and horpower. Obviously it failed the interior, i think thing the hp was all that impresive desipte the engine undergoing a complete rebuild, and the mcdonalds theme exterior is lacking as well. I can't say im exactly in love with this car, but it was really cool to see what the gm performance team can do with a one off car.. even a little fwd rice rocket.
 Great little thing

People have blasted the Cobalt SS Supercharged as being stupid and useless because of its front-wheel drive. Personally, having had the pleasure of driving a Cobalt SS(but not buying. I'll stick to my current baby, for now), I've always felt it had potential to be a great track car. For a front-wheel drive car, its always handled beautifully... Well, once you get past the damn torque-steer when you really hit the gas. But that's a minor detail. Any good driver can keep that from causing him/her any trouble. Despite all the criticism the SS gets, this is without a doubt proof that the front-wheel drive Cobalt can, and IS, a great-performing, well-handling little thing. Granted this one's been modded quite a bit, but as its STILL front-wheel drive and uses about 80% of the same components as a stock Cobalt, what's its proven still stands. The power difference between it and the Skyline were so great that it can only have been the handling that won it the time attack.

Now that the Cobalt's proven itself, I'm confident that it will make Chevrolet a serious competitor in the Sport Compact market.
