Im really interesting in getting an MR2, but Im wondering why you dont see these cars so much at the drag races. They are great cars with great engines, but what the hell... anyways that car in my sig is totalled need new car. Just want to know what is wrong with MR2s that they are not so popular at the 1320.

mr2s are great cars, but not exactly the best for dragging. you see, not very many people know this, but yet people do know ignore it, cause its not that big of a problem. you see its mid engined, and the reason why they suck hahahahhahaha lol jk

So are MR2's really mid engine? I mean I know the engine is in the rear but it sits right in between the rear wheels. I thought mid engine was something like the porsche boxster where the engine sits in front of the rear axle. And what I think this other dude meant by no traction was since the engine is right between the rear wheels you cant exactly tub it out. Although you could put a wide body kit and put bigger tires but still thats not tubbed. Also it has a relativley short chassis and all the weight is in the rear, I cant picture the wheelies this thing would be making if it did have tracion. ahhh, anyways, Im not getting the MR2, with a totalled car and a wreckless driving ticket I dont see myself paying for insurance and having a normal life at the same time.
