What's the fastest car you've ever beaten with your BEAMS powered car?

Probably not quite up to the stock current evo. Those get 14.1 in the 1/4, beams mr2's are mid 14's. 14.1 seemed surprisingly bad.

no *real* EVO's where my BEAMS is at.....no chance to find out, all Lancers are just lame though.
the WRX I smoked is a 2004(?) non-STi, like the EVO's I would not stand a chance against those....
I manage to keep all the RSX Type S's in check though, including the newer K24(?)'s as well...not sure how beat up they are because they seem kinda slow. That or just *****-driver
The Porsche's and other fancy-brand cars, BMW 3-series are just wussy's compared to the BEAMS, I really don't get why either, are they just super heavy vehicles? They seem to be powered properly & have all those fancy traction control aides...

non-STi is a pretty big piece of crap really. I think the one I ran against was seriously miss-treated because it just seemed so weak...tho it was only maybe 2-3 months old...
