I can prove that the e is great off the line. I have done two standing start races with NASA (www.nasaracing.net) and the car leaps off the line. I was in a pack of Neons, 1st gen RX7s, Golfs, and Rabbits, on the grid, and made up three or four places on the start in both races. Completely stock except for a 3.25 diff, which certainly helps.

I'd guess that with the stock final drive you'd be toast.

I can beat a Caravan off the line with my stock final drive eta :)

I'd change it, but I do love that 28MPG!!!

PS. I was hoping to meet you at the club race at summit. Maybe next time
