if its not a Z24, don't worry 2.2L's are worthless but my friends Z24 is a pretty quick little car...faster than me I know that. but only right now

I'm not being sarcastic here, just curious since its been a while since I've driven automatic. How can it depend on the driver on ATX? The only thing I can think of is how much throttle you give it to start out with so you don't peel out.

Certainly not to stock Cavaliers, though.
And I agree with Demon. The Z24 is a high 15 second car in MTX and 16 sec ATX.
