Re: talon vs. probe

I wonder if a gerbil could outrun a hampster...
How about a canary vs a parakeet...

Re: talon vs. probe

I don't really like that website.....it doesn't tell you if it was a manual or automatic or anything. Obviously a manual should be a little quicker than an auto if the driver knows how to shift and shit and also look at the times for the GS-T and the GSX....the gsx was faster by .1 of a second.
