03 wrx vs. porsche ?

is it possible that my 03 wrx is capibal of keeping p with a newer porsche? i think it was a gt. it had the same body style as the gt2's but no badges.
I was turning onto empire grade off of smith grade in santa cruz and saw him fly by... pulled out ended up catching him (suprisingly) . i flashed my lights once or twice and he downshifted and sped up but didnt pull for sh*t. i dont know... my only assumption is that this guy just sucked at driving, he was on the brakes alot before turns but was getting on it pretty hard out of them...
either way i had fun playing with a porsche.

i was never saying we were trying to race... but c'mon he's in a porsche and were already doing about 70 and he speeds up pretty fast but not as much as i would have expected. and then brakes then speeds up. i dont know he was probably just messing with me.

uhmm... Most people *do* brake before turns. Especially if you're going downhill as you do not have as great of traction.

I smoked a Porsche Turbo this morning on the way to work...it was in heavy traffic on the freeway, he was in the middle lane going 60 and I was in the fast lane going 65....I drove right by him with my 5mph advantage....what a kill. This definately proves that my subaru can beat ANY Porsche. (Sarcasm)
