In my xA I chase down Cobras with 500hp wearing Hoosiers, my xA wearing Nittos. here:

the xD, with the same tires and some weight removed would have no problem doing the same.
you just went from drag race to auto-x. mustang is a horrible choice for auto-x. the vids were drag and thats what the converstaion is about. and yes even a girly v-6 stang would beat a scion in a drag race. but you couldn't pay me to auto-x one.
comparing auto-x times to drag times is apples to oranges. but i stated that you said it was dumb to pay more money for a civic SI than your scion because you beat them in a drag. my point is you payed triple what you could get for something that would run faster..... i'm no mustang fan or anything i just know you can get alot of power for cheap with them.... just making a point.

Yeah, if all you want is power..sure you can get cheap power. Sometimes people spend more time in their car and enjoy things like a fully functional HVAC unit with no leaks, or a nice comfortable seat with no holes from the excessive rub from you being sunken back in your seat. Stop bickering, no one wants to hear you anymore.
