Hey ya'll thought I'd share the only real race I've had in the corolla (2003 ascent)...
Was sitting behind a guy in a bluebird sss who was tooling along - speeding up slowing down speeding up in an 80kph zone ... dropping back to 40 then flooring it to 80 ... was pissing me off...
so I figure if he's heading the same way I am:
road sweeps around left at traffic lights so you can merge onto main road. (Seaford road to south road - all SA people)
anyway as we round the sweeping bend into the merge lane - the oncomming traffic has a red light - so I drop corolla into 2nd (is a slowish corner) - floor it out into far right lane...
bluebird looks at my and tromps it - revved second till it hit stupid bastard rev limiter (6500rpm) changed to third pegged third to around 6300rpm - by this point had half a car on him - changed to fourth and kept it pegged to 160kph...backed off cause I had a car length on him. Slowed down to speed limit - and watched him do loser fly by - and give me the finger.
*shrug* I've got a stock corolla - TOOL!
** I know driving in excess of the speed limit is bad - and don't need to be told again **
*** I don't usually race to those speeds on an open road but straight line stretch with no traffic in front ***
