man, that sti was walking all over that 03/04 cobra. As soon as they both hit the straights, the sti was gone! Even saw some cool backfire action.

looked like the pavement was wet... so the scooby should have had an advantage in the corners. Mustangs like to kick their butts out even when the pavement is dry

I just can't agree. Mustangs have live axles, how is that superior to the wrx's suspension?

It looked like the mustang did better in the corners which is where the STI should have spanked it, especially on wet pavement. That STI was damn quick on the straights though!!

03/04 has a LSD.

As well, the Cobra sounded stock, that blower whine should be way LOUDER with a Cold air intake.

And why can't he drive for crap? Seems like he just had the slower car. You know, some people do mod their cars to be faster than others.

^^^ words of wisdom to the not so wise.


Just because a guy is in second doesn't mean he's a sucy driver. 2nd place driver could be driving a 8th place car, you never know.

The mustang was taking FAR better lines through the corners too . . .

I'd take scott's word on this simply because I know his trophy case and his driving skills. I don't think the fact that the subie beating the stang had anything to do with it.

Uh, mabee the subaru was modded...

I was saying that I don't think it had any bearing on his opinion on the pilot being a sh!tty driver.

Thats what I was thinking too, "it is what it is!" While watching that video though, some parts of the track the Scobie just got further and further away, amazing BTW, I felt like I was playing GT3 watching that

I thought both drivers were doing a very good job.

They passed slower cars very clean.
Maintained thier lines.

I figure the suby should have stayed more inside, but we don't have enough info to say hey was a crappy driver.

1 to many races with those tires?

Posted By: BiggsvT28 Re: Cool video - 12/12/05 12:58 AM
Okay I guess my statement appeared axhaggerated. My comment is simply that to have such a nice car with so much money obviously spent on it, you would think the driver would have more training. He was not hitting nearly any of his apexes, and he was not very smooth.

agreed. he knew where to put his car for a good turn.
he was also better with the braking, which is where he really would catch up to the subie
