Default caravan vs. celica

As I was walking in to a shell station today I heard this AWFUL umistakable sound of a 4 cylinder with open headers or pipes or whatever. I noticed it was a beat up *** black celica reving the HELL out of its engine over and over again. The funny thing was he was at a light next to a dodge caravan. Keep in mind he is reving that thing for like 5 minutes straight. I stop myself from going in to watch what happens when the light turns. What do ya know they race as soon as the light turns green. I saw from 0 to what I guess was about 60 or so(which took forever), and the dodge caravan pulled the celica by 1 car.......LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL BWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAH ...made my day!

Dodge caravan=1
punk *** ricer in a beat *** celica=0

I love those 2.2L turbo Crystler minis they made for a couple years in the early 90s. they can actually hit 12s without too much work. Funniest thing in the world to see.

I remember a video of a turbo caravan putting a hurtin' on a z28 at the dragstrip. I think the van pulled low low 12's. The crowd went nuts when the van pulled ahead.
