Default MR2 turbo vs stang

just ran an mr2 turbo, from what i could hear it had BOV and an exhaust. we ran from a 45 roll and i took him. then we ran from a dig and it was dead even up to 65(3rd) when i started to gain on him. it was a very close race it seems that the mr2's gearing is a lot steeper the the stang's

good kill. it's easy to get one of those into the 13's, but from the guys i have known who own them 12's and beyond is tough. there's a guy in my area who has one that runs 11.85 @ 116, and supposedly it's the fastest one in the country. he flies all over the country tuning people's MR2's. they are fun to ride in, so im sure they are fun to drive. i'd buy one if they weren't so complicated.

A lot of people look like they've seen an alien when a kitted and air scooped mr2 rolls by, very slick.
