Killed by an MR2

First off, lemme say that it was in the Explorer.

I pulled up at a light on a highway in town next to some older guy in a newer MR2, and as soon as the ight changed, I hit it. He did as well, and it was over almost instantly, lol. I was praying that I could have been in my z28, but even if I was, the roads were still damp from last nights rain and I probably wouldn't have gotten any traction. Oh well...

Thought you'd enjoy that, 25psi.

Those new ones are quick considering they only weigh 2200lbs. By no means fast, not compared to the 2nd gen mr2's. Nice death by the way.

Re: Killed by an MR2

It's ok even the fastest of Explorers loses some times. You just need to get some traction and stick a blower on it it won't happen again.

Re: Killed by an MR2

It's really my father's but I drive it to my university becuase he takes the train. I've been trying to talk him into doing some rims, but he isn't going for it. He wants to sell it for an LS6 Chevelle, but that would leave us with no winter-driver... I try to talk him into it more every day, I think I'm getting htere...
