Default ap1 vs corolla xrs

I haven't raced any but I was on YouTube bored at work and typed in "s2000 vs " just to see what came up and I watched a video of a corolla xrs with i/h/e and some sort of reflash against an s2k with only an exhaust.

To my surprise it pulled on the s2k. Id post the video but I'm posting this from my cell.

Anyone had a run in with these cars and had a similar or different ending? Enlighten me.

Seems possible if the s2k had it's top down. Idk though because i used to drive a Matrix Xrs and honestly they aren't really that fast. Never know though, s2k driver could just suck also

This is what it is. Any S2000 owner losing to a Corolla should just sell their S and buy a Civic to learn how to drive on. The XRS only weighs a bit less than an S2000 but is WAY down on power, even with I/H/E. With I/H/E it would only be putting down around 150-160 whp. Not to mention the gearing is awful compared to an S2000's.
