so me and a few friends are heading up to a sushi restaurant and we're all travelling in a straight line, regular 4 lane road, lights are 1-1.5 km apart. i'm second in line (of three cars) and i see a red light with nobody in the right lane so i swoop on over.
look over, (to the camry) my buddy's gf is headbanging to hannah montana or something and hes just loooking at me and smiling. so i decide i'll play. make sure the road north is clear and rev the engine a couple times, really intimidating because theres a huge hole in the muffler and it sounds real mean
so buddy does a brakestand takes off as soon as the light goes green, i take off regularly because im running on 185/70/14 winters. i proceed to mat it, and to my surprise, i start pulling on him HARD. i close the gap so we're neck and neck, slam 2nd and chirp the tires, and at the top of 2nd im a half car ahead of him, slam 3rd and im 1-1.5 cars ahead, then the ride starts to get really bumpy (goddamn high spring rates) . so i let off and coast to the next lights, where im being looked at by two open mouthed faces.
end of story, we talked over dinner and he admitted to doing a brakestand and then mashing it. so im so confused, either the camry has some serious problems or their auto trannies are just total chit. opinions? i dont think i should have won that, but then again it kinda makes sense since im a few hundred pounds lighter. iv raced an older v6 camry (auto) and an acura 3.2 tl (auto) and killed them by like 2-3 lengths. opinions?
