Sorry but a stage 1 WRX would pull on a stock stook no problem.

Now no war from me cause I really love both cars, but a stock Stook and a stock WRX are not as different as they appear in performance. Only in $$$. But you take modding into the equation and you have to agree that the WRX has a lot more potential than the S2000 does. For the $6k in the SC, just imagine what you can do to a WRX...for half that, $3500, just think of the possibilities...

But maybe dad was nice so you wouldn't smoke his car and then he's be sad and with a hurt ego or have to make excuses. The son must never surpass the father...

my dad was driving the S, so i think he would have loved for me to have passed him..he isnt even done adding parts to his soob ..its still stage 1, as for mine, its s/c....im in complete surprise that my car didnt just take off from him...he told me that if we had kept going that the s would have eventually just left..but still ...20-100, thats a race.....
if i were to drive the s, and him, his wrx, he probably would have beaten me, he is a better driver in my car than i am.
im going back to cali this weekend so we will probably run them again...

well when you say "full exhaust" that implies downpipe, uppipe, test pipe, and catback.

Get back to souping up your S because I don't want to hear about a WRX spanking a S.C. S2000, it breaks my freaking heart.
