Actually, if you take it to another context. Mitsubishi is actually the one getting "owned" by Subaru since Mitsu is barely holding on for dear life as a car company...ha ha Mitsu owners! You guys might go the way of Plymouth and Studebaker!

okay guys lets not let one troll affect our feelings toward Mitsubishi and their owners.
I had a nice time meeting up some of the Evo owners at the Ward Starbucks meet a few weeks ago. All the DSM Hawaii guys that I've known over the years have been true auto enthusiasts and I respect their knowledge and expertise.

WOW and 11 second GSX and A (meaning one) guy with a 12 second EVO. You DSM guys are STUDS. If I had an 11 year old car and if I actually gave a Sh!it about drag racing I could have it in the 11's and a EVO is a turbo back away from being in the 12's so big deal.
We got tons of 12 second WRX's and STi's. **** we even got a 12 second AUTO. Given enough time there will be a few 11 second Subaru's.
But in my opinion drag racing is stupid, but to each his own.
Now lets talk about Short course times. I have a 40.35 second lap with only swaybars. I don't see and DSM's that close to me.

guys, are you really threatened by this statement? hmm i kinda stand with mike(18hr) on this one. though he(shea) may be stirring a hornets nest there is some validity to his remark... but i don't really care- its kind of adolecent to see who can **** farther- i think mitsus are cool nonetheless.
*but then again, this may be a call to have all our ol school guys come out and represent...

I am a mitsubishi enthusiast. However, I personally have a lot of respect for what Subarus (and thier drivers) are capable of and I would rather my name not be associated with these questionable statements or the viewpoints of the individual who posted them.
