All vehicles would be faster if supermodels drove all the time..... Too bad they probably don't know how to drive.

Hahaha.....Ive beaten people with dudes in my passenger seat too (coughJeffcough)....my car on weight loss doesnt make a huge difference....lol. No backseats though.....

To sum it up......the HX is a slow, economy car...it can still be raced and still pull 16s, but not much faster. Lotta people will laugh at you but its good sometimes to get a smile on peoples faces at the track....sometimes you get noticed more for driving a slow POS than a fast one, haha.

Yeah, the FX is pretty light until I get in. Weight is 2125 with half a tank, ran 17.3 seconds Naturally Aspirated but there was kinda an excuse. Anyone who's ever put synthetic 75w90 in their tranny knows how long it takes the syncros to hook up. I pulled so hard trying to get it to shift faster that I broke the back of the plastic shift pivot-cage-thing off. And I yelled ---- a few times cuz that might also help.
