It's true...these two mexican guys in an older-model MR2 (non-turbo) tried to race me on the free-way in the del Sol. We were about even but then I pulled ahead (possibly due to the VTec, but I doubt it since it's a SOHC) and won by about two car lengths. It was pretty cool, since that's my first "race," I guess. We were going about 120-ish. I love the sound of an engine at high RPM's.

Camry engine or not, MR2's are light little mofo's.
Good kill.
