that looked like an STI to me....which has almost 80more hp stock than a regular WRX. If that was a REGULAR 'rex, it would have been just plain UGLY.

i can't believe he didn't insist on racing from a dig. most WRX owners will NOT give up that advantage or take the disadvantage of racing from a roll

good kill
