well just raced my buddy's SI he got a 98 model I had three people in my car a full tank of gas and a check engine light and a tach not working! lol

1st race he nailed it and took off before I did.

2nd race we raced to around 130hp.

I hit the rev limiter in 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Man he was right beside me the whole time.



3rd race I threw one of my passengers in his car. Turned off the defroster it was loud thats why. Then we punched it at 20 which is not a good speed for me kind of puts me between gears. But we get going I get out ahead of him and this time immediately begin pulling pretty good by 70 he is almost 4 car lengths back. Remind me to get my car weighed tuned up and get that damn check engine light off!!! Oh by the way my car is loading up at idle and when I 1st got this car I could leave black marks in 2nd when scratching coming out of first and into 2nd. When racing him I could barely chirp them so I am down on power pretty badly! But still killed him! Oh on the 2nd run the top more or less raised up and acted kind of like a parachute and freezing us all out to the point I had to slow down or risk freezing all of us and loosing my WHOLE TOP!

you know honestly I dont know.



He bought it from a photographer that traveled across the U.S

He paid 10,200 for it and it had 64,xxx miles on it.... seemed slightly high for a 4 year old car but oh well it is actually not that bad. He is going come over and help to see what was wrong with my car. Even he said I should of pulled away pretty decently.



I mean come on

14.8 vs 16.1 I should of pulled away pretty good!
