    if its an auto then you have a good chance, and also if its 5 speed id still try and take it but from a roll, off the line in our cars is gay...lmao

    No, its not. No way in hell, but its still pretty fast. Especially on a hatch.. I dont think we'd win, but maybe

    so great news!!!
    first time he pulled it off rolling at 60
    then we went 20 and i won both times we ran but it was soo freaking close but yea mark one more on the checklist.

    p.s. it was on a closed road with a buddy of mine and only a little money=)

    Grats on the win. I think people just dont know how to drive, everyone complains that the car is slow. Compared to a GSR yes our cars are slow, but vs other economicial car projects like hondas, mazdas, nissans, w/e our cars are pretty quick (unless you have the cvt which is stupid cuz those things are slow).
