Im factory... I lost.. LOL


I got him off the line and then I heard him doing a 4 wheel burn out for about 3 secs and then past me like I was stopped....


I thought I would share my pathetic attempt at a race.
 
STI's are fast.
I know a guy with a 1g DSM that killed one, he runs 12.3 tough :cool:
There's a big feud here between STI and EVO VIII
I know of an EVO VIII here running 11.9 or .8 i don't remeber well, but STI is not in the 11's yet here in the island. There's an older model Impreza(2 door) with WRX engine and tranny+diff etc. Running 11's stock only with ECU computer
OMG

Wow i didn't know WS6 were so fast!!!
There's a turbo s2000 here that smoked one too bad the other day, the WS6 as i could hear had exhaust and some other things.

I don't go hunt STI's yet, i still can't beat stock WRX's hehehe
 
if the person driving the ws6 cant drive well they are really slow because the car is a very very hard car to drive.

A few of my friends have them, (2002 WS6) and they are far from being slow. They are crazy quick from the factory. Plus the handling is awesome. Then few easy mods and they are in the slow 12's with no problem. Good or bad driver it is hard to make that fast of a car slow.

I just about picked that car over my gst now, but I made the right choice! :thumb:

Puerto Rico is a whole different planet...Puerto Ricans make Hyundai Accents run 9's. Plus they hold the fastest import record. if you don't believe me check this link out

Doesnt the STi run like a 13.1 stock? Someone told me 12.9, but i wasnt sure.

anyways, If the 12.9 is true, look at it that way...12.9 stock versus 14.9 stock. That had to get messy my friend.

They run 13.1-13.3 1/4 times...

But they will get spanked by the EVO8 at 13.08 1/4 (depends on the driver)

I race a WRX station wagon and had it like 2 cars. I want to race a STI but every time I see one there is to much traffic to race...

Some of us have no problem with ANY of these cars mentioned in the post. But as for the STi power, yeah, I was impressed until the showdown happened and then I went to look at the local asking price.

OMG for a car beaten by a 97 fwd with 1/3 the money invested including car price itself. We all know why we are here on this website, lets just keep it to ourselves:shhh: .


I give all cars 'other than the SRT' a HUGE :thumbdown !! Too much money for the power equiped. The only reason for the :thumb: on the SRT is that atleast someone is trying to make an effort at AFFORDABLE power. Now they just need to make it AWD and I am sold.

True the SRT is a bad boy but they also look like crap:barf:
