Who do you think would win, me vs. Mazdaspeed Protege?

J/k. Mazdaspeed Proteges are touted for their suspension and handling rather than straightline speed, but they still are light and quick with a factory T25. Interesting that they run the same turbo but on an autocross platform. Friend of mine recently bought my AVC-D and hooked it up to his protege. It's a fun little car, you guys should go take one for a test drive if you get the chance.

Lol, it really is an AVC-D, I promise you. It is an old, analog electronic boost controller that Apexi produced. I sold it because I wanted the money for other mods at the time, and decided I didn't need the staged RPM-based boost since I'm awd. I figured Mac could use it a lot better than I

, and I could save some money with a cheap mbc.

lol..that's funny.

i raced a WRX the other night. not knowing i was in the race at first untill i heard him building up for launching already. by that time,, .. it was too late for me to build for my launch. light turned green. so i thought, what the hell anyways.. i'll fucking slam on the throttle anyway. so there i go. he had a head start advantage before me. tho, surprisingly i caught up with him in no time. it ended with both of us head to head at the next traffic light. LOL.. mofo must felt like an ass... he had a head start.

sorry for the thread jack joe.
