just cause the car is faster on paper doens't mean it's going to win, plus like you suggest, she might be bad at driving. I think it's all about the driver

Guys, he did say that they are going to a track with lefts and rights; this is no straight line contest.
OP- momentum is your friend. The WRX will have a good deal of turbo lag, so unless she is a decent enough driver to keep it in the powerband, she may be dead in the water on corner exit. Just don't be a dumbass and overdrive for your skills and die.
5 pages and nobody has commented on how OP got a girl to go to race him around the track? For shame, even if it is an incredibly stupid pissing contest.

If you race around some of these roads here that are 2nd gear turns that you get up to 3rd sometimes on a strait but come back Down to 2nd, then I'm fairly confident anything less then an sti couldn't beat me
You can't beat light wieght, there is no substitution, even high performance suspension technology can't make up for physics.

ive owned a 2.5RS for a while before switching to my e30. my impreza had cams and other goodies that brought it up to about 185hp. my stock e30 feels just slightly slower in a straight line thanks to the lower weight and drivetrain losses. however, the start is much slower (dont have sticky tires or lsd yet).
i havent had a chance to take the e30 out on the track yet, but i tell you that an impreza is incredibly forgiving car. worrying about when to get on the throttle coming out of a corner is almost not a concern. the turbo of the wrx actually makes it more difficult and slower in the hands of a weaker driver (i regularly beat wrx's in auto-x).
point is, a good driver in either car will win. and tires make more of a difference than most other factors.90 E30 325i

IDK, I guess he could take her. How long of a race is it? I mean she is a girl after all and if she was never in the fast and the furious movies she is going to be a terrible driver...hahaha jk
I think we all need to see a picture of said girl. If this is a way for you to make us believe your into girls and your really not....your sick.

So, you plan on "racing" your stock E30 (160 bhp, RWD) against her stock WRX (227 bhp, AWD)? Alright, just checking.
I'll leave the obvious "hey idiot, you have an E30, what the fuck are you doing imitating 2F2F with it?" comments out of this thread, even though they are very much true and you sound like a complete idiot asking the internet how you will fare in the most obvious of scenarios.
Anxiously awaiting your part out thread whenever you R3V it.- Trey
