STi and SRT4

I was driving on a two lane road on the edge of town the other day, and had a blue STi behind me as we moved through traffic. I sped up a bit to give him a chance to get next to me. Eventually catching a light, we were lined up, but I heard no rev so I did not plan to launch. I tried to look over, but dark tinted windows prevented me from seeing into the car.

The light turned, and we both just kinda did a rolling start. At about 20mph, punching the gas, the STi started pulling on me slightly. Into 2nd gear, and I stopped his pull. He was maybe 3 feet ahead of me. Into 3rd, and I started to pull. By the end of 3rd I was ahead, and we were close to hitting traffic so he hit the brakes. I slowed down, and he had rolled down the window. Him and his passenger gave me a big thumbs up, and I smiled and waved.

Then, the next day, I had an SRT4 that had pulled ahead of me on a main stretch of road leaving town. It was still two lanes at this point, and I stepped up a bit to catch up to him. He got stopped at a light, so I sped up a bit more to try and line up with him.

Just as I got to the light, it turned green, and he launched and took off. I was still rolling about 5mph and just went, starting slightly behind him. I pulled on him quickly and he shut down at about 50mph with maybe a car or two on him, even though clear roads were ahead of us. He lingered behind for a bit, and never got up next to me after that. Eventually another light came up and turned red just as we were approaching. I started to slow down, and he downshifted and went through the light, even though he was behind me and had plenty of time to stop.

Re: STi and SRT4

BS? Why, because it was a race against an SRT4? If my story was against a 350Z I suppose it'd be BS to 350Z owners right? come on.

1) im not an srt-4 owner, im a 1.8t jetta owner
2) I'm calling bs on 2 accounts, the STi cause it wouldve ate you alive and ive seen too many s2000 try to beat an srt-4 and lose, so as i said in your other post, prove it with a video.

Re: STi and SRT4

i'm decently modded and can run between 13.3-13.6. Here's what I can do to a stock S2000:
http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...ZmQzMXk1NDE%3D


and likewise, i've seen plenty of stock S2k's beat stock SRT4's. both cars are capable of high 13's stock, so what's the point in arguing? they are a driver's race in stock form.

as for the STi, with my mods, that's what happens on average with most stock STi's.

Re: STi and SRT4

this is a street encounter just like every other thread in this forum. there's nothing wrong with me posting here. if you can't deal with the fact that such races exist, not my problem.

there are a fair amount of SRT4's in my area. and I get in plenty of races, most of which are NOT SRT4's.

sorry i just find it hard to believe that your mid 13sec car can pull and pass a high 12 sec STi

Re: STi and SRT4

I'm not sure if you've specified what mods you have yet. What year S2K do you have and what mods do you have?

Re: STi and SRT4

First off you do use pretty good grammar in your posts, but,since when does an S2000 run a 13 anything stock? I have seen anything between 14.1-15 on those cars but never a 13. I do call BS because it was against an SRT4. Please stay banned.
