Does "faster" mean on straight roads?
I still don't understand why the hell there are people on this lovely planet would race on straight roads. If you do, why even put a driver on it? why not remote control the drag car?
May hell be with all drag racers.

Out of the firebird, mustang, and camaro... yes they're fast and would be a good race, especially on a track, but on turns and a wet surface, they can't compare to a WRX. My friend has a 400 horse/torque 12 second mustang 5.0 lx, still can't take my WRX

You can't race on turns anyways. I mean it is way too dangerous. In a straight line drag you can at least see whats ahead of you and maybe react. If you are racing with turns things come up on you pretty fast on the street. Although maybe thats just me. BTW what do you have done to your WRX that makes it so your friends 400 hp mustang can't beat you.

i know what you're sayin. that i realized that going as fast as possible on straights is kinda useless. that was after i rocked 115/35, i had nothin go wrong just reealized it was stupid. i try to learn roads in the day and drive at night, headlights are a dead giveaway of oncoming traffic... it's so much better and if you keep it within your limits you know it was you that phucked up, not your car. but that's just my opinion

aaaaaahhh, i see, in VT we have no such porblems. except for the cops there aren'tmany things moving after about 10....
Yesterday I got in a Race on a Detroit highway. Me (03 modded WRX) a Saleen, C4, two C5 vettes and a Camaro SS. I was screwin around with a kid in the C5 and ran with him until the dreadid 140 govenor. The Saleen whooped all of us and got off of the highway very soon after. I couldn't keep up with the C5's but I managed to outrun the C4 and SS. Now I know why they make 3 lane highways.

Speaking of the Supra....
What do a 400HP, 500HP and 600HP Supra have in common???
12 second time-slips!
Morons: Realize that we are lucky enough to have quick spooling turbos, whereas those who wish they had bigger dicks get T88 turbos to boast their peak HP. Think superpowered Supras.
HEH comic relief

AWD is great if you are racing stoplight to stoplight or short range area. Like when i raced my dad at the local race track, he had me until 330ft when i finally got traction then i blew right past him. he was driving his '94 legacy turbo and i was driving my 70 camaro with a non-posi rear end. If i had a detroit locker i could be pushing mid-high 14's at denver's altitude. The detroit locker would suck in the mountains and i the back end would shudder. The AWD and the twin turbos are sweet on the 3000gt VR-4.
