The SS is amazing on the back roads!

i got to say how much fun the hhr ss is on the back roads.i can do atleast 80 around a sharp 20 mph turn and not even squeal the tires. i love pushing this car into the turns.so far it has handled everything i can throw at it on the back roads. my wife is getting tired of me talking about how much i love this car LOL...Its like a really big racing gokart.
dont know why i posted this im at work and feel like talking

I envy you. Only done an extended road test and waiting, waiting, waiting (14 more weeks of waiting) for mine to arrive. But still smiling from that limited experience. People don't believe me when I talk about about the handling. Sports car performance not just a straight line go fast car.

Be safe out there... don't want you to find the limit when it's too late!

BTW... I love the handling of my SS as well, just figuring out what it can do safely.

"Back roads" to you means paved only, right? Our family has property in Canada with a wide path of a road through the woods and I am wondering about potential HHR clearance issues.....

I wonder why there are so many threads about street racing. Who cares about 0 to 60 before the next stop light. The SS is tuned to run hard on the track and in the the canyons. Thank you for voicing the real fun of driving these cars. More Miles, More Smiles.

The back hills here are a blast. You'll smile the whole time through the curvies.
