well about an hour later we ran again and this time i am off to a great start, 1st, 2nd and 3rd i keep ahead of her by 4-5 ft, once i am in 4th we are about nose to nose....i hit 5th and she pulls on me and she keeps going...
we're both completely stock, i just got my oz about 10 days ago, and that was the first time i tried running it competively...maybe still adjusting to this stick than my 98 dakota
plus the roads were soaking wet but i had new tires and she barely had any thread left on hers so that couldn't have been it.
this weekend we're meeting at the beach and i know i am not going home without spanking her silly...thats right Fiesty, your somebodies *****!

read my sig about "ES" 
and about auto-vs-manual. one of my buddies got an 03 ES and i have an 02 ES and pretty much same exact car, just different resell values. but we raced light-to-light many times and it's usually close off the line but at about high 2nd, and 3rd gear he pulls away. very slowly might i add. but probably with an intake and exhaust it would be close. not certain tho.
