You don't know how to drive

Now there a simple answer to your problem.

You can't expect the most outta your car being a automatic

Maybe the other vehicles were/are modded better than ours? Plus weight to power ratio is a factor too.

KS acceleration difference is seriously night and day. Get that thing replaced. It will pay for itself in gas mileage soon enough anyway.

This thread is retarted. First this is in the wrong forum. Worry about if you're car has problems not if it beats other cars. Now if that Scion was a manual it would probably have an edge with the gearing, not to mention they can be had with supercharger's stock. There's probably nothing wrong with you're car, you just need to realize you drive an old POS. Newer cars SHOULD beat you.
