Default STi vs SR20

I thought I'd share a little. It's 2am with no traffic in little ol' Abilene, TX on the freeway. It was from a dig so I didn't even break the speed limit before it was over Whenever I race the 2 wheel guys from a dig, I always let them launch first so there's no complaints. Camera car was a Galant VR-4 btw Evo I ftw

He got great traction on that launch so he kept it up for a while, but right as the VR-4 was passing him he shut down for obvious reasons. There was really no way to catch up. Good sport though, most the time I get railed by the FF and FR guys for being smart enough buy and AWD vehicle that can own them in a drag with 100 less hp. Not my problem they got traction issues

Probably, I run an open downpipe with the axle back still on for appearances sake, so it gets pretty loud bouncing at 4500 rpm's. We both have LC though so I ain't sure
