Wow, this is ironic, for once it's not the vette driver getting passed in the turns and then drag racing the overtaker down the straights lolololol.

Just a little 4 cylinder"

"will it get off the line?"

actually seems like the engine being heavier would help with traction cause the weight pushes on the driving wheels, kinda like how Porsches are rear engined to put more weight on the rear wheels which improves traction, but also causes the tire life to suffer, I wonder if this Scion would have the same problem if it were running 10/10 for a long time.
