Alright this is not a Lude race nor would I have wanted to be in this unless my car was much more modded then it is already.

I just got back from picking up my roomate from school and there was this Civic that I have seen at the strip several times and I know that he runs consistant low 15's and High 14's. Anywho I was one car behind him and then this little Mazda MX-3 V6 model revs up on him and I am like hehehehe Yeah right. Then I hear it a farking exhaust and what sounded like it might have been a turbo but not sure. Anyway GREEN LIGHT!!!! And BAM there off. Civic was never even able to keep up I mean the MX-3 had him on the launch and I was trying to cath up to see the race. But the MX-3 just MURDERED him. I was like

, and as I passed the civic I looked at him and he looked at me and was like

. All I can say is that I never wanna get beat down like that in public by a car like that.

Also does anyone know what kind of specs or mods can be done with one of those?? Just curious

I really like the MX-3. I was considering them before I got my lude. I still have a soft spot for them. I wonder what it would be like if someone was to put the 2.5 V6 MX-6 engine in the MX-3?

it'd probably be about as fast as a V6 Probe Gt, considering they're virtually the same thing.
