Yesterday night I was coming home from work with my girl in the car, top down and just relaxing with no worries. I am on driving down Fowler when I see this black mr2 pull out from that one community near applebee's...raintree I believe, but anyways...They pull out and im still cruising at the speed limit at 50mph and the mr2 speeds past me to catch the light but darn, they get the red. So I roll up next and it looks like she(it was a female driver) is smiling big as hell with a guy friend in the car. It seems she was having lots of fun rolling back and fourth to show that she has a manual transmission...im like ok, I know im in the Temple Terrace area so I don't try anything.
Light turns green, off she goes, I didn't do much but cross the bumpy ass 56th st on Fowler, switch to 2nd and roll next to her, she looks like she dropped a gear and raced towards the next red light... Now its just her and myself at the light. No one is around so light turns green, I get a bad start she takes off but once i catch myself in 1st off I easily pull quick to her, switch in 2nd and pull about 2 cars on her, while I was switching to 2nd i look in my rear view mirror and saw huge puff of smoke come out of the mr-2 but regardless the gs-t wins...the guy friend in her car sticks out his hand as they fly by w/out hazards on(good thing) and gives me the thumbs up.

ps: i had my ac on as well :)

The complex is the Watermark ones off of providence. Nice place.

"Solid" thats what i was thinking too.

uh sorry to break it to myself, but i know her.....what was she thinkin? anyways of course you are gonna beat her even with your ac on, it a stock n/a mr2, but if your willing to run a turbo, thats a different story. i'll post a night that we go to bmp.

and for everyone else that jumps in and says i wanna run you, i'm not challenging him to put him down....just so he can see the difference is all....last i remember, the mr2 was not made for drag...

You guys crack me up. It might have not been made for drag, but you sure as hell are trying to do so, so its game on.

hey whats up bro, i was the "guy friend" :lol: haha that was a fun time. since you pulled next to her on 56th, i kept egging her to go, and she was like " noo hes gonna beat me hes got a turbo".. but she went anyway, the first time, she was driving good. at the second light, she didnt really launch it, and since her 2nd gear is all messed up she missed it im guessin thats when u saw the puff of smoke... nice car btw.. cute chick too congrats:D

not trying to argue, but i dont think the designers at toyota were sitting around and said..."you know we need to design a drag car...how bout a mid engine rwd? one that will launch like a mother fucker! yeah that's it, a mother fucker. they will sell like hot cakes" i would have liked to sit in for that one.... but then that probably is the same statement that stated ferrari's also....

mid engines are made for handling not for launching!

Alright, this is the chik in the MR2. I wasn't thinking that I was gonna beat your car. Come on now? But yea...Oscar(iceburn) kept begging me. Anyway, we should race again. I want to see just how much faster your car is than mine. This time...see if you can get 2 car lengths rather than 1. =). Plus my car is all messed up right now.... Tranny is dropping and so many other problems...but hey....definetely need to race in about a month or two. Ill take you on again when I get my MR2 Turbo. =)

Sure I accept the challenge, but if you don't mind, we should wait about a month or two, wait till I get my super 16g in first if thats okay, if not we can go anytime you're ready, but it was a good run and all in good fun :)
