Hi, today at lunch we race the tc, mazda3 and a matrix. The tc and mazda3 are completely stock, the matrix has and air filter and a computer ship.
Results:
The tc beat the mazda3 but the mazda3 was ahead in 1st gear.
The Matrix beat the tc but the tc was ahead in 1st and 2nd . Hummmm.

Interesting, and yes they race multiple times and with different drivers…
We will see what happends next week…

 

To better elaborate, did the Matrix have the 180HP stock GT-S motor in it? That would explain it.

 

Yes, the Matrix has the XRS motor (GT-S on the celica)in it, in addition it has a computer chip, intake and exhaust. 152 whp stock and now is about 180 whp. I think the tc can take this car by just adding a filter and the headers..

 

No doubt haha... At least the tC still puts you in the seat harder, makes me happy.
