If your running a GTP, you should have no problem. My brother has a 325 stick and I pulled on him. It was a slow pull, but I still got him. Does the WRX have any mods? And do you have any mods?

sorry for not posting all the info

grand prix is stock except for a K&N drop in

bimmer is stock 325

subie is stock as far as i know and a manual (but i have yet to see him dump the clutch at high rpms so i doubt he would in this case)

Should be able to kill both. Don't know until you try. Blow that punk kids doors off that WRX and shut him up. Let us know how it turns out. Would be a good story for the kills section.

Does anybody use references as to how fast other cars are before you race?
I know a lot has to do with the driver... but i thought it could give some indication of how fast the cars are...

it lists the subie at 5.3, and the gtp at 6.5

0-60 and 1/4 mile times for Factory Stock Vehicles

you should win easily. Anything under 330i, 330ci is slow. 335's are fast

0-60 is not really much indication for a race. Sure WRX's are fast of the line...obviously b/c they are AWD, but if you race one from a roll they are out of their league
