    4 speed auto with long a** gears AND a 2.93lsd worst possible scenario to be in but it pulls. Neck to neck with a new ford fusion I blame myself for letting the trans shift for me, scared a cts-v that was over taking me with 4 people in the car same with a ford focus but i had to let off since the pops was rolling with me. Did piss off a Honda civic rice hatch bouncing around on cut springs did a quick pull with a full car again and he got butt hurt with his girlfriend flicked me off and started swerving in the next lane if I was alone I would have handed his a** to him.

        I raced against a Golf 1 GTI 16V in my 318is. It was a draw. They were exactly the same from 0-160 km/h

            I generally reserve my racing for closed courses, but I had a debadged RSX (I don't know them well enough to say type S or not, but I would guess not) with wheels and suspension being a douche when I was driving my S52 car fairly shortly after it was done. I was leaving the grocery store after class one night about 10:30, and the road I take home has a loop onramp to a straight road with a 55mph limit. Leaving the parking lot he gets behind me and is right on my ass, and continues to do so all the way up the ramp. I get to the top going about 45 in 2nd and there isn't a car in sight in either direction, so I decide to go for it. I hit it and my hard 215 all seasons light up, kicking the car a bit sideways. I spin through 2nd, hit third and kick a bit sideways again, then just pull. I get to the end of 3rd and look in my rearview and he's a solid 4 lengths back.

            I'm not sure if the car was just slow or he pretty much gave up when I went sideways from a roll, but I did get the ricer flyby.

                I beat a m50 swapped e30 at a drag strip once with my chipped and injector only m20...I can say our reaction time was bad, but mine was a little less bad.

                    In the short time with the car running the only thing I've encountered was a solstice GXP. With a bad distributor giving me random cutoffs, I was able to put about a half a car on him. Maybe less, still in front.
