Beat MR2 (Turbo??)

Ok so on FLW heading home from car wash and there is a red MR2 that had dual exhaust and sounded pretty turbo like when I got up close to it. Anyhow I see him flying so I catch up at about 60 this road is a 40 BTW. Then he starts stepping on it, I was in 4th and I went to 2nd and just hit 2nd hard shifted to third and took it to about 110 just entering 4th and I beat him bad. Now I don't know if his car couldn't handle it so he didn't chance it, or if he just couldn't catch up. Of course those things are faster to 60 but our quarters match up, and since we were already rolling it worked to my advantage. So I won that one.

Nice kill! I beat a MR2, the new one...we raced to about 80, and I had about a 2 car lead on him.

Thanks man but this was one of the like late 80 early 90s ones if anyone knows what I mean. They are quicker than the new ones I think or right around the same. But suck after 60 I learned.

Toyota made a Turbo MR2 in the early 90's with 200hp and a non turbo with 130hp, big difference between the two.
