ok..so as usual i went to the car meets again tonight, n i just got back. But this saturday was different from other saturdays..cause i raced this time. While i was chillin with some friends, some civic park next to us and just start talkin to us. He asked who owned the celica and i told him it was me..and the trash talking began. He started runnin his mouth bout how our celi's our slow (although that is true, i still take some offense to that since i dont even kno the kid), how he had beat one already..bla bla bla. Im not really the racin type of guy, but i just had to go for it (of course i kinda guessed what he had on the civic). So one of my boyz finally told the kid to shut up n just raced me. so we did race..my weak little 7afe against his later to be known D16. Turns out, to my surprise, i actually took him..: )..lmao..and beatin someone in my 7a doesnt happen often. The kid did shut up about celi's afterwards cause we just kept on bringin up the fact that he just got beat by one. Dam, im actually starting to get some respect for our celi's up at the Orlando meets. So for those of yall into Hondas, "how u like dem apples"..lmao jk.

Our St engines still suprise me. When I first got my Celi I raced it at the street races just to see what it was made of. I beat a non turbo 240sx and a mx3. So our weak 7afe's have a alittle bit of a kick. And this is what got me into modding my Celica.

hell i have a 97/st/auto (remember 96+ 7a's have 5 fewer hp than 94-95) up at about a mile in elevation, and it doesnt feel THAT slow. granted i have rear seats and spare removed (which you can notice with only 105 hp). from a stop up to about 30 or 40, it really doesnt feel too bad, but accelerating from 40 or so on up
 of course its nothing like riding in my brothers friends 01 mustang cobra with about 460 rwhp, but its at least bearable... for now

agreed, i also have the 7a, and its quick from 0 mph up, and from 1st gear to 2nd gear, but 3rd gear and from 50 mph up doesn't pull as hard, i guess because the lack of hp, i have beaten a couple cars in my bone stock 7a, list includes: two integras, old celica with the flip lights, a neon, a civic, and probably more but i dont remember, the 7a is quick stock granted its a 5 spd, but not fast

My problem is I only race my friends. The problem is one has a 99 Dakota RT, 89 Lincoln Mark7 with 5spd swap, and a Honda CBR600. Its just fun and games tho.
