Re: Are 2.2 Cavaliers Fast?????

what's your definition of fast??

Compared to an ox cart....yes

Compared to a Ferrari...no

IDK what you want to compare to because "fast" is a pretty unique definition...

Re: Are 2.2 Cavaliers Fast?????

Put it this way, you can make the motors achieve higher speeds than the body should go. With a little work and a bank account you can make them pretty quick.

On average they are slow. But sometimes you will come across one that will suprise you. If its had some work put into it to help it along.
