I wan't to know because it's fast in acceleration but that's because of it's long 2nd gear so it gives good 0-60 times.

I raced one at the track a couple of days ago and barely won (by 0.04 sec)....Its a good race! I was way ahead for the first 1/8 mile, then he started reeling me in. Theyve got a strong top end. Actually, we both posted identical trap speeds...95 mph.

I have a Max and my son a Celica GTS 6 spd

I have a Max SE A/T, Stillen YPipe,Hy Flow Filt, my Son has an GTS 6spd Filt & Muffler. He just wipes my *** easy, specially at top end, maybe an Max 5 spd would be a good race but you have to react fast, if not you'll remember its rear license plate!

I haven't raced one, but I did testdrive one. It sux, I couldn't ever get it to accelerate without shaking. I like my 5spd better.
