Mazdaspeed Protege- not so speedy.
Or for those of you following the TV show "The Apprentice". You might say, they were the Protege but we were Versicorp. Some preface to the vid below: The mad cackling in the background is my girlfriend. She apologizes for the accompanying sound file. www.koumotorsports.com right click, save as -------------------- |

are you sure he was even racing you??? I have a buddy with a MSP and it is pretty quick. he was putting down low 15's fully stock. and that was his first time at any track. he only did 3 runs. but nice video thought.

Sounds better than my wife when I open the throttle...."AAAHHH!!! Slow this car down, NOW!!! (SMACK) (SMACK) (WHACK) (CRACK)" I'm pretty sure he was racing because the Protege driver said,"So you beat a f**kin' Protege!" at the end. |

He was in it but it's not like the Protege is really going to shine in a stoplight encounter against a DSM. AWD + drag radials on all four against a FWD Protege isn't really going to be very fair in short sprints like that one.

Nice kill. By the way, does your girlfriend have any available friends? I'm always looking for a cute passenger seat camera girl.
