^^^What Skiptomylue said - race 'em and find out. Just make sure you do it in front of a police station. Oh and don't come back here and tell us about it because talking about street racing is against forum rules.

Highschoolers will boast endlessly about how their cars can "smoke" everything in the world. Even if he had some super beefed up TC, I wouldn't really care even if he COULD beat me in a (drag) race, they're boring. Take him to an autocross or a track event and show him what real racing is like.
For now, just let him live in his little dream world, he'll grow up eventually.

Seriously.. FML..
Heh. I've been arguing about the same topic at work. My friend has a AT tC. I have an AT RX-8 (07). Hes added mods to his car, maybe a 10-15 hp increase in total. Wants to race me, to show me that he can win. I always say no though. But I'm sure I won't lose either way.

ah.. I heard you can get a TC over 300HP.
That would be a different story.
the TC is an economic cheap car.
the 8 is a refined sports car.
the M6 is a sedan.
No comparison as they are all different. Hence, no hands down winner.
