all you guys are ass clowns that say the cobra isnt TT or you know the "real deal" on the car........ 11.6 psi, 16 degrees total, 91 octane, not to mention a stock clutch and fuel... and a 275 lb passenger equals = pretty damn close with with a 450awhp WRX w/ a forged motor, ported head, custom cams, and a GT30R w/ 27psi !!! on a 100 octane ! homos.....everyone always complains they want videos of everything on here, then we give you shit and you complain more.......jesus christ, where is everyones videos who is complaining?? that wrx was pretty damn fast, and it would have been a few more car lengths had I gotten out of the car, but it was "fun" run between them.....so calm down......
the race was this past sunday, i was going to go but couldnt get a ride, so i wasnt able to go. the freeway in ques was 238/580 in CA, it the part going east bound towards good ol' oakland.
Nothing beats a race in which the run is side by side. Formidable opponents to say the least. Great runs.

the WRX is at a definate advantage on the highway with it's weight and much "taller" gearing. Listen closely and notice he only shifts once.....less shifting =faster car on the street

You have it backwards. The WRX has much SHORTER gearing.
Wake up. STIs cam make 300-330WHP with the stock turbo, exhaust, header and a tune. It is pretty easy to get a ~400 WHP WRX now.
You dont even need a header to do that. My car will do that with a turbo back and a good tune. I think you can get close to 400-450 with a different turbo on the stock motor on the sti but thats about it till you blow it up.

You are right. You will make a ton more torque with an equal length header though
Probably... they only raced from 40-90ish. The WRX would have started in 2nd, and tops out in 3rd at a little more than 90.
hahaha......90ish?? here we go again..........so mr. wizard, tell me again what 6,900 rpms w/ 3.55s in 4th equals on a 26.5" tire ???? calculate and get back to me......thanks ass clown

WTF are you talking about? You dont even know what a WRX has for a final drive, and obviously dont know what diameter tires they run. I actually owned a WRX, dipshit. Take your inaccurate numbers and at least do a google search before you make yourself look like an idiot again.
If they raced past 90 then the WRX shifted into 4th. If they didn't then the WRX was in 3rd. It's pretty simple.
