Hey if the aveo has the right tires don't see why it won't win. Traction is the winner.

I would. I'd even try anal, but that's just me...

It beat the civic!?!

asc, i know...

You have to remember that too much power can be a very bad thing for a FWD vehicle on a slippery surface. Plus if it has extremely crappy street tires, that would put it down also.

BTW, awesome pics & congrats on pulling out 3rd with a low power car!!! As was said before, "traction wins these events".

So can getting stuck on the way to the start line.

No, that's just down right funny!!! That alone should take you out of a race.

+1 hahaha.

Awesome pics. I think the downforce from that roof-rack is what gave you such an advantage

A rental Aveo..... not exactly the most fun way to rally, but certainly one of the cheapest El cheapo economy tires on it probably have better off-road traction than the sportier tires most other cars come with.

Haha

For the next one I'm taking off the roof rack, and removing the rear seats and trunk carpet and possibly my non-functioning a/c. Maybe even the door cards. I was a solid 4 seconds behind the top times and I definitely don't have a surplus on power.

Yeah that Aveo definitely turned better times than at least one STi.

Well keep in mind, a fast STi with a poor driver equals a slower car.

well that and dont you have crazy suspension jamal?
