It's not my place in life to make people happy. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to watch me slaughter cows you hold sacred. Don't talk to me unless you're prepared to have your basic assumptions challenged. If you want bunnies in light, talk to someone else.

Over what distance? I don't know about these specific cars, but a lightweight car with a small engine can often out-accelerate a heavy, high horsepower car. However, the small-engine car is usually slower.
Howedar is no longer here. Need to talk to him? Talk to Pick.
