Default WRX

So I was coming home from switching my exhaust and a wrx started messing with me.

He had to ask me what kind of car I had.

I was like, "It's just a honda with a little 2.0 lt 4 cyl."

"It got a turbo or anything?"

"nope."

"laughs*"

Me- "So you want to run them?"

"ha ha sure."

"What are you running?"

Him- "It's stock"

"k"

He had 1 passenger.

We went from a 15- 20 mph roll and I pulled 4-5 car lengths on him by the time we stopped at about 80. His passenger was like, "Holy sh*t! that things fast."

Next, we stopped at a light and went from a dig. He got an amazing launch and I got a decent one. Can't beat an awd car with a launch. He got about 1- 1 1/2 lengths on me and I had to catch up. I got even with him at about 60-70 with my shift and we shut down because of a red light. Both gave thumbs up and said nice runs and went separate ways.

Saying your car had a little 2.0L 4 cylinder probably didn't phase the WRX owner.

Probably not, but the lack of turbo made him chuckle a bit.


And yes. I just got my s2k like 2 weeks ago. Why?

s2ks can take STis, so a wrx should be easy. Even with full turboback, and access port, the s2k should still be able to edge out the wrx.


just by your post, it seems like the wrx owner didn't know jack shit about cars.....

yep but it won't be an easy win. but as speeds increase the s2k has more advantage.

from a dig given equal drivers a stock STi should beat the s2k easily though.
