Nice fly-by on 19th last night guys

Blue Sti and White WRX:
I was driving the Corvette that you did the "ricer flyby" right in front of on crowded 19th ave at around 10pm. Nice work you almost hit my dad's new car while I was driving 25 in the slow lane.

The STi probably did a fly by on you, because he was too afraid of racing a vette head to head...

Yeah who is fat boy? Also, I highly doubt an STi would hang with a Corvette, especially if it is a Z06.

He's a chubby little punk kid with glasses that hangs out on Irving St. Thinks he's the shiet and used to give us Friday night DCMP meet-heads grief He has a near stock blue STi and has tried to challenge some of us to "the runs" before.

BTW, who the hell came up with that term "the runs" as reference to illegal drag racing? When I have "the runs", it means I ate something bad and will probably be spending the next hour and a half in the water closet

STi can abuse anything up to about 60mph, then can hang with just about anything to about 90mph. After that, it's "just" a four banger with forced induction

Theoretically, your right. However, V8 cars are a lot better at recovering from a poor launch. If an STi and a stock vette both launch poorly, my bet is on the Vette all the way. Good launch from the STi, however, and the tides turn. A Z06 will make a stock STi look silly.
