FC N/A vs 2002 Chevy Avalanche
 
I don't even think he knew we were racing. It was actually my buddies truck and I pulled up behind him at a stoplight. I wanted to see if I could keep up when the light turned green, and I couldn't lol. He was slowly creeping away from me although I'm sure I could've overtaken him eventually, maybe after 100 MPH lol.

I really miss torque. My Jetta has a lot less horsepower, but it has torque even at 1,000 rpm. Driving the FC takes a lot more careful thinking when you want to pass/accelerate.

Are you serious? you need to learn how to drive your rotary kid! Torque is for piston owners!

You're right it is. Which is why pistons are better.

Sit behind the wheel of a 400hp small block and then see how you like your NA 13B after that.

torques not fun when autocrossing, I bet a 240hp FC could take a 400hp 400ft.lb FC on a tight track just because the v8 beast would be spinning tires when trying to accelerate. Torque is ALOT more fun on a v-twin firebolt.

Uhh, not if you know how to control the throttle...........
