Raced a Subaru WRX modded last night

This kid at work got his subaru for $35000 smacks with ground FX rims clear lights turbo back exaust and blowoff valve all dealer modded. I told him that I'd own him, joking of course. He said that I was on.I'm never one to back down from a challenge to run. My boy got his camera and when it came time I told him i'm gonna get spanked. When we started it was a SLOW steady pull the wrx had on me.I lost but I was suprised to see not by much. I need to mod my car and race him again[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] I know he's gonna run his mouth but if I dumped an extra $12000 into my car you think i'll beat his? hehe I don't know if that camera has any computer capabilites if it does ill post some stills or the vid.

Im surprised you didnt get beat by more. This is an ongoing war at Club RSX so really theres not much to say, you're comparing a 4 dr turbo sedan to an 2 dr NA coupe.

#1 AEM CAI --> +20.7 hp, +5.3lb-ft
