Went to the Strip in my friend's modded WRX Wagon...

Good god!!! I drove my frst WRX in america yesterday night.... It was almost insane!!! We went to the drag strip in Savanah, GA lastnight... It was a blast!!! I saw a Brand New WRX STi run against a mustang Cobra.... Cobra beat it though... think it was blown too (supercharger)... Anyway the real fun happened when this guy in a camaro challenged my friend Aaron (owns the WRX) to a race... Aaron said he'd even put 3 of his friends in the car and still beat him... So Aaron, Myself, and two other guys got in the WRX Wagon... Anyway, everyone was laughing at us because we had four people in this little turbo wagon and were racing a V-8 Camaro... But Aaron supprised them all when he got all 4 tires to light up on the start!!! Dumping the clutch at 6,000rpm's is not really the best thing to do in a WRX, but it held up, and we beat the Camaro!!! Next he let me drive it once... This thing is amazing!!! He has a Turbo XS Stage 4 turbo kit on it a massive front mounted intercooler, BOV, Electronic boost controller and some other really nice things.... Unbelieveably fast!!!! 2nd gear when boost came on full My eyes felt like they were pushed into the back of my head or something... Well I ran a 8.5 in the 1/8th.... That was all the track is... Just an 1/8th of a mile... That's alright though... RT was a really sucky 1.13sec But that's alright cause it was the first WRX that I had driven in the US... And it was one hell of a blast.... If I wasn't going back to Australia I think that I would go buy a 2004 WRX Wagon and start modding it!!!!!!
