almost lost to a celica
Riding around with my friend, we drew the attention of a celica gts doing some spirited driving. He kept trying to get us to race a few times, so finally we ended up at a light clear of traffic.
Deciding to give the celica a taste of what he wanted, we waited for the light to turn. The celica got a better launch, and got about a car length right away. The celica pulled a little bit in 1st gear. Through 2nd we started pulling but by 60 we still weren't ahead. Fortunately by the end of 3rd we had about 2 car lengths on him.
Good thing we were in my friends 03 accord, otherwise I might be a little embarassed at my driving skills.

Rep Power: 401 sure. a 14.4 car vs a 14.9 car? that's a fairly close race if you're just doing a stoplight race and not getting to a 1/4 mile. celicas aren't anything to scoff at by any means.
turbodiesel what do you drive? a TDi or something?? are you in the milwaukee area?
