Nah, it's a small can, just 1 really Big Worm inside. But really, car model has absolutely stuff all to do with it, with near identical weight, motors, g'boxs etc. Maybe the sprinters aerodynamic superiority had something to do with it...... Quote: there are only two possible factors,as the weight and power differences should be minimal: *the sprinter had superior gearing for acceleration (in the box,as the celica has the better diff ratio) This could be, as I think maybe ribbos is the aus spec T50, with the clutch master on the pssngr side, whereas mine is the drivers side jap spec. Someone just brought this up in another thread, whether there is defferent T50 ratios. Would be interesting to find out. Quote: *it was driven better once it actually got moving. Gee, thanks alot. I'd have to be driving a fair bit worse than ribbo to be beaten by a length after a 1/2 to 1 length lead. However, if you or anyone can suggest some drag racing techniques, I'd love to hear them. Another thing about the 3.9:1 diff ratio, it would be much better suited to the old pac, as with the 4.11:1 I was constantly between 6-7000rpm in 3rd, needing to change to 4th before I was even round the corners, and having to drop it back to the same 6-7grand to take the next corner.
