Default 00' SS vs 11' WRX

A lot of internet trash talk lead to this! The Impreza is a good friend of mine though so no worries, just two friends having fun.
Mods for 2000 SS M6 are SLP Lid, TSP Long Tubes and Rumbler Dual Exhaust.
2011 Subaru Impreza WRX has Invidia Turbo Back Exhaust, Cobb SF Intake and Tune, runs at about 20psi according to him.

Very nice runs indeed. Mods does absolute wonders for the evo's, and wrx/sti's. I'm just not into them enough to mod them. I'd rather jump into my 675 hp ctsv lol.

Good kill

Not a fan of the music stuff, but at least you killed it somewhat on the important parts. Sounded like you could have dropped a gear on that first run for sure to start out.

Yes I respect the turbo'd fours but it just doesn't compete with the fun you can have with the low end grunt of a V8 haha.

Well of course we can't drown out that beautiful LS1 sound haha I like to add music to my vids to fill in the gaps. I think it looks amateur when it just switches from one clip to another. Also, yes 60 mph in 4th was not ideal but we were just keeping it even. Both our cars are pretty loud so that's where the hand signals are used lol

Is it really that hard to find roads without people on them, or wait until a later time? Good kill, but seriously. :smh

One of my best friends has an '11 WRX with the same mods; it really woke it up and it's quick little ******. Honestly, it's probably the most fun all around car I've ever been in.

Sorry. Street racing is street racing. The timing was right at that moment, we live in different cities and don't get together regularly.

This spring I am going to try that mounting spot. I have had my gopro for over a year and not used it once. I even bought auxiliary mics so I can mount one on the rear bumper.
