He can't drive worth shit! h:

He had a SC'd automatic max before this So it's going to take him some time. Not to mention the fact he could drive the auto

Back when my SR was only making about the same amount of power as you b18 I would always beat WRXs. They will kill you off the line but I would catch them in third gear. I never have been impressed with the topend of the WRX.

I have always liked the WRX and all the money I spent getting my SR was supposed to be a downpayment on a WRX hence the reason I wanted to beat one so bad (to make me feel I made the right decision)

Edit: you will win:bigok:
