the sad thing about all of this is that we are comparing 2 cars that are not by any means meant for racing...imo its just like putting a station wagon up against an oldsmobile and see who gets to 40 mph first...i just rode in a cobra today, and man those suckers are fast as ****!!!I lost traction and heard wheels spinning, while shifting from first to second gear ~_T

Corolla S are not faster than Manual EX. I've raced a few and I've won everytime.
Now... be sure not to race the new Corolla XR-S Manual. They are not as slow as the Corolla S.

I raced a corrola S with just an exhaust when they first came out. And I stayed with him all the way, I dont think that the S has no more power than the vic. I say race that kid at ur school, you will see what your vic has then.

one of those stupid things tried to beat me getting on a freeway ramp. Lets just say my auto civic made short work of him. He tried to take a corner too fast (same speed as me) and almost lost control. Idiot.
