Today after work I came across this Toyota Matrix ( Xr5 or XrS) I's not really sure but the one with the stock body kit and rims. He has greddy muffler and the engine sounded like he had atleast an intake system. Anyways, I was at a stop waiting for the green light and this Matrix dude next to me was revving and stairing at my KnN filter powered P5. I was not planning on racing anyone especially not on the p5. ( I really think p5's are very slow until...) Light turned green and he took off and for some reason my foot felt very heavy and I couldn't let go of the gas pedal. We were head on, on my first gear and I shifted first to 2nd gear. I looked at him and heared his VVTLI or VVTI kicked in then he shifted to 2nd. It's weird because I thought they're fast like they would just smoke me but end up we were just head on until my 2nd gear redline. I couldn't go any faster because the area that we were racing is were the cops loves giving out them tickets and I just got a ticket at the same spot last month so I slowed down. He probably think that he smoked my p5 because he looked happy when he was making a right at the light but who cares i just wanted to see how fast those cars go and I am very disappointed and very happy w/ my p5.
I'm thinking the Matrix is probably automatic or maybe he messed up on his launch because they should be way, way faster than a stock p5.
