I would hope it smoked both of them, especially the cobalt. The SRT4 is probably about even, but I'd hope the MS3 kills it. I'm curious about this too, can someone answer this question please?

bench racing the numbers here and a MS3 will destroy both of them.

took on an srt4 the other day coming back from the track. its quick, but not quick enough. and for all the buzz about its suspension, and correct me if im wrong thinking its awd, it cornered like a heavy *** dodge would.

ms3 won that race.

havent seen the cobalt around yet, but im not worried about it either, chevy's suck.

SS runs 14.3-14.6 stock (MT gave it a 14.4@100mph). MS3: R&T gave it a 14.3@98.3mph. It would prbably be a good race from a dig, but the SS has a really good top-end on it, especially with GM stage II

a good driver in an SRT4 should beat a Mazdaspeed3 with a driver of equal talent every time. SRT4s are also front wheel, not all wheel, drive. Cobalt SS should not be a match for a Mazdaspeed3.

Best 'magazine' 1/4 time i have seen from a Mazdaspeed3 was a 14 flat. SRT4s are capable of hitting mid to high 13s bone stock.
