Wrx stg2 vs stock MS3?

My friend just got a MazdaSpeed3 and I just wanted to know how well I'd do against him. I'm at stage2, and he's still stock. I should be able to take from a dig right? As from a roll, I'm not too sure. What do you guys think?

Well he has about 260 and has fwd so you should be fine until the awd takes over.

i think he is referring to the fact that awd's usually take a big hit at higher speed due to extra drive line losses

Hopefully he has suspension mods and nw tires because the Speed3s handle better out of the box. =(

Be sure to race in a school zone, preferably around 3:00pm on a week day.
