Matt (Stig) v. Bobby (Me) ~ MR2 v. Silverado
Place your bets. Matt and I have already talked about it. He'll be running me in his 285hp Silverado versus my 138hp MR2 Spyder. If you just look at the horsepower numbers, he should obviously win, but he's hauling 2000lbs. more vehicle then I am. He's also got an automatic, versus my manual tranny.
I think i'm gonna win, he thinks he's gonna win. Who do you guys think is gonna win?

Re: Matt (Redneck) v. Bobby (Me) ~ MR2 v. Silverado
I'd put my money on Matt. Those trucks can be decently quick when they want to be

Re: Matt (Stig) v. Bobby (Me) ~ MR2 v. Silverado
I would if I didn't have to pick up all the cones I'd smash down with the truck...

Re: Matt (Stig) v. Bobby (Me) ~ MR2 v. Silverado
Nah, it's not faster than a stock Titan. Well, never tried but I don't need to to know.
I've got my work cut out for me it seems...

Re: Matt (Stig) v. Bobby (Me) ~ MR2 v. Silverado
No Matt, focus on the horsepower deficit. These MR2's are slow ass pieces of shit. Just ask the guys from the other board I belong to
 I'm actually thinking about modding it already. Found a place that will sell a catback exhaust for $260, and an intake for $60. That's not too bad for some additional ponies.

Re: Matt (Stig) v. Bobby (Me) ~ MR2 v. Silverado
The MR2 will win. Those trucks have some very tall gearing while the MR2 has some really short gears. That and the weight advantage will more than make up for the difference in hp and torque.
