Thumbs up for Mike/Gruppe-S/Blue Bucket

Tonight, I was lucky enough to get two passes in the "blue bucket".

I have to say that car is a BEAST,...and i have never driven a better tuned monster/street car..the thing drives around like a stockish WRX. (save the slighty grabby clutch)

We all know Gruppe-S is the place to get work/tuning, but this just cements everything we know about Mike being one of the best tuners, BAR NONE.

Its wonderful when dyno #'s pan out to great 1/4 mile times/trap speeds.

Again BIG thumbs up to Mike and the crew...killer car

Stock '02 WRX tuned by Mike at Gruppe-s.

Mark - Your second run was rocking!

1.7 60' is excellent~!

I've never had a 1.7.
