Ok then if that is true, why are the fastest J-bodies stuck in the 12s while Hondas and VWs have been running much much faster then that for the past few years? You're a dumb ***... stop being a dumb ***, dumb ***.

Yes, I'm ignorant because I don't give a about the worst automotive product ever produced... if you really think about it hard, I'm actually just smarter then you. I can honestly say that the J-body is the most revolting car I've ever had the displeasure of setting my eyes on. Drum brakes for the entire production run of the car, spanning more then 20 years... give me a ing break! Pure garbage.

Your car sucks, set fire to it.

wow, drum brakes, you got me, you really got me. and im the dumb one? hmmm. since my front wheel drive car rarely uses its rear brakes while braking, i dont see that big of an issue with drums, but you got teh leet online ethug smartness, so i guess you knew that and i cant argue with that. right? also, i can honestly say that you are the most revolting and ignorant person i have ever seen on the internet. congrats. now you can sleep at night knowing your a big ethug in your (since i neither know what u drive, or give a for that matter) heap car and continue thinking the car you drive is the best and fastest. you may now proceed to race 16yr olds in their moms minivans to make yourself feel big.

Well you pretty much just wrote my biography.

You must be hallucinating, because if you weren't then you would know that I'm one of the most open minded people on this site when it comes to different kinds of cars. I give respect to any car that deserves it, and I'm sorry you have trouble dealing with the fact that I don't think you car does. There's no need to make things up about me.

well thats good for you. personally, i dont care about your opinion or "respect" for my car, because its mine, not yours, but whatever, i find it funny that no one gives cavaliers any credit. as far as best bang for your buck, the z24 with the 2.4l has quite a bit of hp/tq compared to other cars in its class and even some above. but hey, i guess that doesnt deserve any credit from you, only drum brakes do, lmao. sad.

Do you even know the actual reason why drum brakes are worse then disc brakes? It has nothing to do with the front/rear brake balance, by the way.

actually B6T

In certain Veichles Drum Brakes are better. Usually trucks that go off road as they are less prone to getting rock damage and other crap in them.

Also Drum brakes are lighter and in some light racing applications work well. Ie Toyota Celica GT only the GTS had 4 wheel disk. The car dominanated it's class in the Scca for a few years with DRUM brakes on the rear.

The only real flaw with drum brakes is thermal efficiencey as they heat up and do not cool down as fast Disk brakes. But for the rear in certain applications they are better as the rears only do 30% of the work
