Had to have some serious **** done. I've walked an 05 sti before, was a roll race, just a bolt on car, then again so is my camaro.

Either way, why would you agree to race a car that's AWD from a dig, not smart. Don't show up with a knife to a gun fight.

That group of dudes look like a bunch of gay Abecrombie models, that are wannabe racers. Another thing is who the hell races for that kind of cash and does not have one neutral person hold both racers cash.

I have to agree, if the guy didn't let somebody else hold the cash, no race.

I am doubting he even had the cash. Probably thought there was no way the WRX was gonna win so..

What a douche.
