that's why I bought this car, you can hot rod this car all day and cops don't look twice. because you don't have to go 80mph to feel fast, 45mph will put a smile on my face on the right road.and that STI might be scratching his head.
I remember playing with a ZL1 not thinking they would play... I was left so far behind it really isnt funny. Definitely humbled me, but yea.. straightline performance isnt why I bought the car.
I got waxed bad by a new ZL1 in my FiST. I don't think he was even flooring it. My first thought was "man I wish I was in my Vette, I would've kept up or beat him." Then a few weeks later I raced one in my Z06 and lost again. 🤣
About a month ago pulled up next to a WRX at a stoplight on a somewhat rural road.
From the get, I jumped a fender length and held it to around 65 when I shut down (speed limit is 50).
Couple things:
1) Car had a temporary sticker in the back window so it was either brand new or used with a new owner. Probably inexperienced. I should never have been able to get a jump out of the hole against awd.
2) The driver was a girl. It's good to see humans of feminine persuasion running the gears. Once rolling she did fine.
I'm happy with being able to hang with (I assume) is a stock WRX with the few mods I have.
What does that prove? Those are cherry picked launches of someone in someone else's car (usually). It's easy to bog the launch. It's a fine line between bogging it or frying the clutch... Or breaking an axle. Have you ever launched an AWD car with a manual trans?

From a Roll an STi is not as menacing. I used to eat them back in the day with my 240sx with the stock T25 (SR20). I still don't understand the hoopla around the EJ engines - every single EJ i've seen has went boom boom baby before 370whp can be achieved. anything beyond that typically requires a fortified block/sleeves e.t.c. . IMO We have better engines in our cars.

AWD rules dude!! seriously i just think its this awd hype that people in the car scene seemed to be obsessed with. They think every awd car is a rally car
