Re: ME VS WRX 2

i had one on the freeway the other day for lunch! Yumm. God I wish they had those back in the CRX days...

Good Kill

Same day also got to play with TT 300Z that had exhaust mods. Thought he would kill me as some run 12's if really modded (ATCO in April had 2 or more). I owned him and we had a nice peace sign your awesome love fest and did it again. I love my car and z fans in general.

Re: ME VS WRX 2

no... my friends said his clutch was messed up but i dunno

Car-stats says the WRX does the 1/4 in 14.7 at 93mph. It also shows in the graph that it takes 21.9 seconds to get to 100mph. So it takes over 7 seconds to gain the 7mph from 93-100

Re: ME VS WRX 2

yeah, but car-stats just gets its times from whatever people write in and say the times are--thats why you'll sometimes see such wildly varying times. Most magazines get 14.2 or so for the 1/4 time on a wrx, and I personally know of a person who got a 14 flat the first time out with his wife's wagon.

Its certainly possible that you would take one if the driver sucked or his clutch really was messed up. The cars are close enough that it really depends on driver skill (assuming they are both in fine running order). But in my own experience I've seen it more often the other way around and the wrx usually takes it by a nose.

Good race! Its the most impressive when vehicles are pretty evenly matched and you win, because you know it was your skill vs the other person's that was the determining factor. Tell your friend he has embarrassed wrx owners! haha ;P

If you ever bet pink slips in a straight line war I bet It won't be against a Cobra if you aint sure what's under the hood!

Re: ME VS WRX 2

well, there is still SOME involved, since you need to know your vehicle and how much gas to give it to get the most power without too much tire spin...
