2002 ES vs. 1991 MR2
 
One of the members of my band has a 91 MR2 non turbo.
I have a 02 ES. My car is stock he has a CAI.
There is a nice lil 1/4 mile strip near where i live by some empty warehouses so i decided i would finally do a 1/4 in my car and why not against a friend.
The first time my tires <need new ones, mine are pretty slick>
spun a bit too much and he beat me by about 3.5 cars.
Second time still too much spin but not as bad 2 cars behind, i figure his car is lighter hes lighter then i am and his car is a bit more powerful......checking engines real quick.....
his 2.2L 130 hp I4, mine 2.0L 130 hp I4
his 2626, mine 2634....huh i guess his weighs more then i thought.:D

not too bad i guess. This weekend Me James<MR2>,Tim<91 Escort> and David <03 Sunfire> are gonna go back out and have some fun ill tell you guys how it goes.
<starts taking crap out of trunk and back seat>:D

Forget that, do stuff to THEIR cars to make them slower!!

Considering they are friends and Band mates i dont think it wise to mess with their cars. :)

but a lil extra weight they dont know about would hurt would it?

The 5SFE engine in the MR2 turbo has alot of torque and the car has RWD too.
