No offense man, but our cars weren't exactly meant to race with, especially an auto. Get a faster car or turbo your current car if you want to make it faster. The lack of an LSD or traction control for that matter make them awful off the line if you give it too much gas. As for what cars we can beat, that's a tough question to answer...

Ya I'm sure the NA auto tC has tons of traction problems...

But as they said, the auto tC really is a slow car, so if you want to try and race some people you'd need to SC or turbo it.

Only two options for you.... 1) Trade it in for faster car and 2) Boost it!

And for GODS SAKE! Don't get an Autotragic!

Stock xA will actually beat a stock tC off the line all the way to 30 and maybe a lil farther. as per Motor Trend.
