Default A Year In Mexico: 2009 Edition

Here's an end of the year video I made...it's mostly got highlights of the good races, but also there's a few unseen races and random footage in there too!

It's funny that I hardly ever hear about WRX's or see them in street racing vids but Evo's are everywhere. I've always personally favored the WRX's they sound better and they look better. I've seen them roll 11's on exhaust and tune only, that's pretty damn good for a 4 banger.

Whoa, that's a very newbish looking typo. 12's!!!! 11's are a lot more work for them. But like I said, I don't see a whole lot of the WRX's in the vids, are they just a lot more difficult to get past the 12's range than the EVO's?

A LOT harder to get 11's in a wrx.

evo + bolt ons and tune = 11's

for a wrx to hit 11's you need built motor, big turbo, all bolt ons and tune lol

for a STI you can do it with big turbo, bolt ons and tune
