Yeah, 2.5 RS's look almost identical to WRX's nowadays, even if he was a bad driver, his third gear would have killed you too, there is no excuse for a WRX being that slow.

my bros wrx puts m5's, and 911's to shame. lol. but like i said, the car is hella tricky to launch correctly. but once you past that point, all hell breaks loose and the turbo kicks in. but they have weak gear boxes, so that probobly explains why most wrx fanatics dont want to really punch their wrx, cus they will twist up the gearbox, like some guy at the sube dealership said.

sorry i haven't reply'd lately.

no i'm positive it was a wrx and it wasn't a 2.5rs, do they even make the 2.5rs in the wagon form nowadays?? anywyas, i know for a fact he was racing because of how loud it was and i usually don't race people up to 90 without them racing anyways, my crx has been known to take out modded gsr's and bolt on rsx's. my time of 15.9 just sucks b/c of not having decent tires. oh well

it depends. the autos in a wrx is like an auto in a supra. they can still plant allot of power even with a auto gearbox.
