Finally raced that wrx
ME(09 SS): Intake,Charge Pipe,Downpipe, NO tune.
04 WRX: stock turbo,a few bolt ons,tuned,launch control. thinks he is around 280 crank (kid knows his **** btw)
as some of you may know i have been hunting down my buddys wrx for awhile, he wanted his new tires before we raced. got his tires on a few weeks ago and we finally got the chance to mess around. sort of.. it started to rain right before we went out of Courceee, so we said f it and still did a few 40 rolls and 1 dig?(cobalt vs wrx w lc&rain=fail.) so anyways we did 2 40 rolls. the first race i missed 3rd and passed him after 100 to put about 2 cars on him by 120 where i let off. 2nd 40 we were dead even until 100 were i then pulled about 3 car lengths befor letting off. 3rd race we went from 45, i slowly pulled a car before 100 until it was game over again. yes we did do 1 dig i guess you could say for ***** and giggles and it was pritty pointless.. i had the factors or fwd/rain/his 4wd launch control all against me so i let off at 30 bc there was no point i could not get traction. we ARE going to do this all again when it is a nice dry night, we will do some more rolls and deff some digs. i will make sure to record it and will update you guys. flame suit is on for racing in the rain.. & you guys should visit mexico sometime if you haven't already. beautiful place

Yeah I kinda figured it would be a badge, what kinda manufacturer would put stickers instead of a badge really? It also has a low spoiler but that could always be swapped or maybe an option.

what tune does he have cobb???
even tuned they still only run mid to high 13s
i have beat my friends protuned sti from a dig and a roll
most awd drivers rely on launch control tell him not to use it and you will walk all over him
