Default Basically, a WRX tailgating a Turbo VW in the left lane. I come up from behind and demonstrate the
ECU enhanced acceleration elasticity by a 4th gear pass into the left lane opening up a pocket for impression's sake. I slow down and wait for the impending ricer flyby attempt. Sure enough he breaks right and accelerates too quick to be stock. So, I downshift to 3rd and scream past 7K popping it into 4th and that is where it became an embarrassing walk. I powershifted to 5th to add insult to injury. Not to brag or anything, but it was pretty fun to humble the guy.

I only stepped in out of German pride. I would expect the same from you if I was in trouble.

Default It'll be funny when you try that on a lightly tuned STI, then you will be humbled.
Not to start a war or anything!

Default I still don't think they're going to be that fast at speed
it's not exactly aero dynamic, besides he'll end up getting romped by a tuned wrx before he runs into an Sti. At least I think so.
