who said anything about an excuse, pickup trucks were not made for drag racing and people race them, nothing wrong with it, im just saying that drag racing is not what the wrx/sti was made for. but people still do it. but a built sti vs. a built GT on a well preped drag strip the gt will win everytime,

also there is no way that there was 9k invested into that sti and its only running a 12 sec 1/4 mile.

someone set up a mustag for a road course so we can quit hearing about “the wrx/evo/awd BS is the best thing ever for a road course”. I heard all of this when awd became sort of mainstream a few years ago about how it would dominate the drag races because of traction, guess what, you’re wrong - rwd is still better than awd.

What would you AWD people bitch at if a rwd or fwd car beat you on a road course? What would be the excuse then?
