A stock manual corolla xrs is killing me in drag races....it has like 161 hp w/ the celica gts engine anyways whats the deal? do i have some major power issues? he is a good driver yeah but i also paid close to twice what he did! we rolled from 30 too where i should have a huge advantage.....btw my car is an 05 automatic but still seems ridiculous

 

2zz-ge will put out 172hp and 127torque from the factory.

Little bit of tuning and 200hp is VERY easy to reach.

And, of course, he weighs about 300lbs less than you.












I am guessing you are talking about a LEGAL drag strip, , , cuz street racing is bad . . . .mmmmmmkay

 

The whole thing is ridiculous. You drive a slow car. He drives a slow car. My manual transmission RX8 is a slow car in a straight line as well (just less slow than an auto). These are not roll race cars, nor are they drag cars.

 

im talking like 6-7 car lengths when i get to 100mph

 

You're probably in a higher gear than you need to be for the punch. Are you manually selecting or letting the slushbox downshift for you (time waisted)?

Either way, Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

 

nah its all in 1st gear rev all the way and tiptronic shift 2nd gear all shift btw i live in naples where do u live?

 

Street racing AND speeding. . . . . .



this thread will be locked real soon.

 

automatic rx-8 racing= fail. i have an auto and you dont race it, ever.

 

You lost when you got the auto.

 

Autotragic ricer street racing FTW!!!
