Re: Subaru Impreza RS

yea.. a good friend of mines has one, and we have raced many of times... on
a 1/4 mile you have nothing to worry about... I even raced him at willow, no
comp.... on the average, you should not even think twice about this car..
BUT if you get one of these in a tight canyon run that has lots of tight
turn, and basically no straights YOUR IN TROUBLE, especially if you do not
know how to drive pretty good.  this car has an amazing suspension.  4 wheel
drive, but when the car begins to slide, the center diff locks the rear out
and the front pulls you thru most of the turn, then the center diff unlocks
the rear applying the extra power to get it thru.  the car slides pretty
easy.  this guy is a good driver, but he has not been me anywhere yet (cus I
am even better, hehehe)..... stock, the car suns somewhere around 17 in the
1/4... a 8v with cams, chip and exhaust will beat it.  needless to say he
just had a custom turbo put in his car by a local tuner.... now the car runs
low 14's.  if it was not for my special magic.. I would be scared, REAL
SCARED.
