2.5 MX-3 vs. Impreza 2.5 RS

[Mradio]

what's up guys, iam finally going to the track tomorrow, and my friend in a 4door 5spd 2.5 RS says he will take me out... ???<BR>do you think he will stand a chance?? My car i lighter, and the horsepower is about the same. Iam pretty sure he will take me off the line, but then I think I should catch upp. <BR>I'll let you know how I did tomorrow

It should be a good race. That thing is ganna SHOOT off the line with the 4 wheel drive. But it has about 180 HP so you should be able to catch him if you get a good launch. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

[ProtegeSTS]

you should beat him either way...they are high 15 sec cars in the 1/4 mile. David's K8 powered MX-3 ran 16.0.

what mods does he have...do you have a kl-03 or kl-ze...if you have a ze you should take him but he is going to pull a length on you off the line

[Mradio]

oh, forgot to mention, both cars are 5spd

[Mradio]

finally, i had a chance to run yesterday.<BR>had 2 runs, best time is 15.008 at 92.46mph. That guy in a Subaru couldn't go again, but now iam pretty sure I should take him out

[Stevech_2001]

ya gutted cats subtract performance aswell as screw the environment and sound like s---.....good luck man...get a high flow cat

[pcperez83]

f--- that man thats just what tree huggin hippies say. run a straight pipe. hurts performance is all bs.

[Stevech_2001]

your fuking retarded....there's a nice ticket for haveing a straight pipe....and it isn't going to do much 2-3 hp....and I was talking about gutting a cat...and straight pipe sounds like s---....

I walked one by a carlength from 30-110 with the K8. Would have raced from a stop but he fell asleep at the light, and I jumped out ahead before he realized it was green. My RT: .600. His RT: 1.600 :p<P>The KL should stomp it. Lighter, shorter gearing, same power, less drivetrain loss

[Tman]

wow...since when do they have stop lights at the track???
