I'm a weight reduction ***** ( my rx-7 was gutted,lol), but I didn't bother with the scion as its a cruise/commuter car. I just wanted to see what this bad boy got and I'm happy that I ran .2 sec better than last time. BTW, I think its like every 10lb you lose, you gain .01 at the track . I had to remove my hubcaps so they can check my lugnuts so I threw them in my trunk, so more weight

I see. I guess it is nice to know what it can run. Also no extra weight from tha caps, you just moved where the weight was.

Nice times, the automatic is about 1 sec slower than manual. Once my tranny get fixed, I'm prepping for auto-x next spring...

anyone tried racing an xB? I'd figure the xA would win because its lighter.

depends on whether or not one of em is a 5spd. . . 5spd's are a helluva lot quicker. . . auto vs auto, the xA would probably win by a hair.
