I've beat my own Subie with my 87 NA (off the line, the Subie cant launch... its an auto). My friend was driving it.
She's the 2.5RS (non turbo) version, so she'd probably whoop the Rex during first gear if she was a stick.

I don't know who was launching the wrx's you people are talking about, but wrx's are insane on launches... whoever was doing it wasn't doing it right I guess.
Also, dennis, mind me asking what the point is of those pics? Just curious...

these subiess dont have much top end due to the drive train loss, ive takin a stock wrx twice but ive herd he was a shity driver

Try the same thing in the rain or any other adverse conditions and the subbies and evos will dominate for obvious reasons. Thats what awd is really for anyway.

Unless it's a shitty driver, it'd be damned hard to beat a WRX off the line in a 2nd gen, I can't even come close with a set of nitto's in my 400hp sport, an STi isn't even worth their time trying. It's funny though, my WRX wagon will stomp just about any TII I come accross with exhaust/intake (haven't found all too many people around here with a clue). Not too bad for a grocery getter!

I pissed off my dad by whooping on his AWD explorer XLT with the 5.0 V8. The truck is actually pretty fast. Has intake and full exhaust and has beat newer GT's (late 90's to 2003) on more than one occasion up to about 70 then i usually let off so i dont look like an *** while i'm passed.
