I agree with Asphalt. The sheer fact that you should be at least 3200lbs lighter and match that with a better acceleration.... You should be able to make him sweat.

my 2010 camry with the V6 just beat those tundras with a 14.3 1/4 mile and 0-60 in just shy of 6 seconds. My Camry was much faster then my FR-S. So that truck will most likely win

All depends on the skill of the driver.

there really is no skill involved with an auto going in a strate line. Just mash the gas and hope for the best really.

At a drag strip, the truck might win. On a real track, with turns, my bet is with the FR-S.

You don't care who will win... do you buy this car to beat others cars or you buy this because it's fun to drive?

Pickup??? lol make me laugh! I have a pickup, from my father, to wait for my FR-S, this is an Dodge Dakota Sport 1997 V6 3.9L Magnum and my Girlfriend with a civic 1998 1.6L automatic beat me lol.

You compare apples with an oranges... you don't care...

Enjoy your ride simply!

(CNN) - Californian teen commits suicide after losing street race. Reports indicate that the teen was so devastated that his new sports car, the Scion FRS, couldn't outpace his friend's full-size truck, a Toyota Tundra, that he metaphorically commited seppuku by choking on his own feces.

His mother found the suicide note which said, "I used the damn paddle shifters! -DRIFTRACER". Detectives are working around the clock to determine the meaning of this note.

BREAKING

(CNN) - When asked further, ft86club.com member "_F-R-S_," said he had no recollection of the motives of the one time forum member "DRIFTRACER" but soon before the race and subsequent suicide the member was quoted as saying, "Omg ur just a fking troll," which authorities believe pushed DRIFTRACER over the edge.
