02-06 wrx, 88ish rx7 and the mini gp

So i also had a run in with a 02-06 wrx (guessing he has 227 hp 2 liter engine) He had an exhaust and thats all I could tell. We both got on the freeway and his friend in an 88 or so rx7 was following. We both punched it from the on ramp and quickly lost the rx7. and i quickly walked away from the wrx. we went from like 1 40mph roll, and 3 50ish mph rolls.... walked him everytime... then we played cat and mouse.... i got ahead of him in one lane and took off... he pursued and couldnt keep up. i slowed down and got behind him and he took off, i was at his rear bumper the whole time and he wasnt going anywhere. after this his buddy in the rx7 pulls up beside me and we go from like a 60 roll.... stomped his ass too however i didnt he a bov, but it did have two huge exhaust pipes and he was shooting flames everytime he revved it up. the mini gp......... i think i would have demolished him if i didnt have 4 people in the car at the time. however he was nice enough to slow down and wait for me when my clutch slipped through 2 and 3rd.... btw he says its a 50g car... so if it is 50g it felt good to know i can kill it with a 26g car. and one more btw...... I love running against other sc cars its so much fun!!!!

Imy only mod is stage 2

FYI: In 06, Suburu changed the design of all the WRXs and all the WRXs had the same 2.5 engine. If it's the older body style, then it's the 2.0

Also, you probably raced an n/a 2nd gen rx-7. They weren't very impressive. Next time, race a Turbo II

Please take some grammer questions. For us drunk guys, your post was hard as **** to understand. Good kills none the less when I put the pieces together. The RX7 must of not had anything done to say behind. And the WRX is AWD so he is useless when it comes to highway racing. As for the GP, I dunno too much about them. Good kills again!

The head lights would look different and so would the tail lights. Also the front bumper is a bit different looking.

the GP has a 1.6l supercharged engine. it pushes 215hp to the crank....stock it runs a 14.5 1/4.....and from the looks of it its good from a roll as well....there a nice ride.

agreed with NJHK, if the rx7 was turbo'd you probably wouldnt have walked him, it would have been a lot closer of a race.
