Killed a 'rolla

Not my first kill. Just me and a friend of mine. He has an 03 corolla i believe. Its automatic. Im standard in my 01 civic ex. He is stock. I just have an exhaust. We video taped it. Back round we roll from 40. I took off from 3rd instead of 2nd to take it easy on the tranny. By 95mph im half a car length on him. All in good fun.

the S just adds a body kit... Its like a caravan vs. a caravan 'sport'
Its a little slower if anything

Whoa, beat a Corolla, big deal.
Corollas are friggin lame... it's like saying you beat an Aerio (which one of my friends tells to brag about... cuz he asked me to 'race' against him in his dad's Aerio... "You beat a 143hp engine, be proud!"... whatever! It's just a friggin lame cow!)
You can't compare... our cars are slow enough, but Corollas are simply slower (plus, they just can't go over 108mph I believe, lame also, lol)

Whatever...
Forget about me
