Default My tC vs Motorswapped CRX

So me and my friend were driving home from the local jack in the box and this CRX behind me keeps high beaming me. So i let him pass me and we both hit a stop light and he yells out some engine number and then he takes off as i sit and laugh. So then i tell my friend to get out my digital camera from the glove and this is what takes place after that.

Horrible vid quality.... "Looks" like he took your first run, can't tell the second...

Although... a stripped down crx with an engine swap or turbo can run dang fast.... Even a F/I tC could get spanked by those lil' buggers without too much trouble (In a straight line).

when i had my hatchback, it was so damn light that i could lift the back. (yes, fully gutted 2 seater). it was also scary, when the wind blows you can feel the whole car move. oh did i mention ITR motor? that car pulls harder than my turboed tC

apples and oranges fellas.

A gutted motor swapped CRX beating a turbo tC.. yah its possible. Is it possible a turbo tC beating a gutted motor swapped crx? Yah. Depends on what he has swapped the motor with and the driver

A gutted engine swapped CRX beating a gutted engine swapped tC?

Since there really aren't any tC swaps... we've pretty much got the best motor that'll fit without SERIOUS modifications... Although, the idea of a 3MZ v6 scion tC is pretty exciting... 268hp !
