                    is it the one that looks like a box? Lot of surface area to push through the wind.

                      seen an xA at an autox event, started laughing to myself. then I hit my self when I saw he had one of the faster times for the day. Including faster than me. may have no torque. but he did somethin to that little thing

                          Tc isnt that ugly. i dont know much else about it though. kinda looks like a toyota celica. its probably just a rebadge for all i know.

                            Do you have an auto or 5-spd?

                              Googled it and got this, sounds similar to your problem.
