ran a NEW sti!!!!!

the other day i got off the high way looked in my mirrors to see if there was any cars to run and i saw nothing. the light turns green and i look again and noticed about two cars back and i saw the new hatchback sti. i know it was a sti cause it said sti in pink in the front. those cars are so nice it was like a dark grey lowerd and with dark grey rims. anyways he got on my ass and got into the other lane and punched it i was in second gear from a roll around fifty. so he kindaaaa gotta head start, then it was neck and neck and i shifted into third with of course no lift **** and it was like my car jumped a half car on him. i ended up slowing down around eighty mph but i was a realllllllllllly close race. i was shaking love the feeling of beating a fourty thousand awd car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on the other hand i ran a 07 sti in the same spot a couple months ago and he had no cat, catback exaust, and a bov and lost by like a half car. i love our cars its like a sleeping giant but soon ppl will find out. also beat two gt mustangs and charger rt couple grs. this chevy is rediculous.

all i have is aem intake and dejon spring soon tune

We go to a weekly car meet in mansfield, ohio, and once the big guys with there v 8's see you make a few runs I get turned down all the time now, so I just tell the people that haven't been there before I am stock, and all my friends start laughing because the people think they are going to win then get destroyed. These cars with tunes are nuts.

Dang, well the worm gears seem to be holding right now... maybe i just didnt have the one tight enough. lol!! if it blows off again i might look into the t-bolts.

???? an AWD that is fairly quick and beats most FWD/RWD cars stock for stock. The OP is stock, basically. He doesnt have a tune so his mods are doing nothing for him because of the learn down.

Oh, when you call out an LSJ on .net, it gets personal real fast... to some, it's downright grounds to freak out, throw a tantrum, and lose their mind...*ahem* Ralli...
