Still brother thinks matrix will cream me on highway
well we got to talking about cars today and he was certain i would walk on him off the line, but once we got to highway speeds he'd be ahead...
he told me after he did exhaust and CAI that hed be down to 14 flat, and i said yea then ud hang w/ me and hes like omg id walk all over u
he said cause he had higher rpm redline 8000, and longer gears (not sure what he means by that) that he'd win

I think movies like The Fast and the Furious and 2F2F are to blame for people thinking like this.
Same thing where I work. Some stupid kid thinks that his old p.o.s. Prelude with a fart pipe, a neon light and a bunch of cheap accessories from Autozone will hang with my car. 
Tell your brother that a Grand Marquis would be a good race for him.

quoted from your sig:
"A4 LT1 inside, shes not doing so great.
Opti, O2's, EGR, intake elbow, Tranny... things to be fixed"
these could lead to a closer race than you think...basically because your car may not be running anywhere close to full potential.

Since when is there an SVT Matrix? Toyota makes the Matrix. SVT is a division of Ford. I am lost.

A celica with intake/exhaust will run low 14's
The matrix is quite a bit bigger and heavier.

this is an insane question, apparently your bro is crazy if he thinks he has any chance against you. given your lt1 is running okay, you will rape him in all aspects. you need to slap your bro for saying somthing that retarted.
