Got to love Impreza owners

Post by DAylward » Wed Sep 29, 2010 10:46 pm

..who think they still drive the fastest car on the planet.Just been having some banter with some of the guys on scoobynet and one inparticular muppet has taken a dislike to the fact that i mentioned that i enjoy blipping the loud pedal when baited by a ricer and blowing them away in my tuned RS6.Since then i have been asked to attend some quarter mile drag event aswell as being told that i am bullshitting (presumeably about blowing these bean cans away on open .....ahem runways) I had explained that they are 2 completely different cars and that Imprezas were only better in the twisties other than that they came a poor 2nd.Do you think that this may have riled him a bit :)

You won't want to be doing too many drag starts in your motor, will soon screw the box up. Think a couple of lads on here have been on the strip but struggle to get the best start out of them.

previous- Pug 205 gti, 306 gti, 309 gti Goodwood.
Audi S3, S4 V8 avant.
Porsche Macan Turbo.
Gone but NEVER forgotten - C5 RS6 Misano red avant.

Now - Empty garage

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there!

It also depends on the scooby of course. If they have one of the ones where the pistons aren't made of chocolate (there are a few I believe) then they can be quite 'nippy'.

It's always fun chav bating though!

All too often, the light at the end of the tunnel, is the headlamp on the on coming train of dissapointment!

Ran mine up the strip and got about 12.7sec which considering the poor starts (or box friendly starts) seemed pretty good. Mine is mapped.
