    I went out last night and hung out with a few friends. Immediately when they came to pick me up I noticed the exhaust on his car. A sorry little mazda protege5. Im always interested in cars, so i asked what he had done to it. All he said that he bought it his way. I checked it out and he just had an intake and exhaust on it. He mentioned racing people on the street later on so I asked if he wanted to race. I told him what car I had but I dont think he had any idea. So we went back to my place, got my car and went to a nice like open area thats as close to a drag strip that we could find. I told him I'd go when he did. So it sounds like he almost redlined the damn thing, then he punched it with a little wheel spin. After i noticed he started moving i punched it and passed him with ease. I knew I was probably gonna smoke him but he wouldnt shut up about his super cool manual mazda. So I figured I should show him what the grand prix are made of. hahaha. He was a good sport about it though.

    My friend owned a MPV or what ever it is, was decently quick he had headers, full exhaust, CAI, and shifter but yeah isn't going to beat a GTP really.

    then whatever the car is, it was the sedan one. not a regular protege but the sport one. I can't remember, he now has an S2000 which is actually a sexy little car.

    The little sedan is either the Mazdaspeed Protege, Mazdaspeed 3 or Mazda 3S

    my friend had a speed series protege, we took it out one night and he had it at 130 before he hit the clutch and started coasting. i always wanted to race him in a stock 1999 gt. i figured i wouldn't stand a chance but i wanted to see how close i could keep it, but he doesn't have it anymore. it was a fun little car
