He's quite a bit lighter than you, but the 2.2 is far more advanced. You should rape him, no contest...

I raced a tiburon a while a go and destroyed him before the govy hit . You have nothing to worry about . If anything it is a waist of gas .

If it is the 2.0L you'll tear it apart. I raced my friends Jetta (stick) with my 2.2L (automatic) and i wasted him. We ran about a 1/4 mile and I let off a little before the end cause I had about 4 or 5 lengths on him and that was from a dig.

are you guys crazy? havent you seen the Jetta commercials? while everyone else is slowing down and hitting the brakes, you just gas the jetta and it pulls you thru corners. come on now. get real huh!
