Buddy I think you mean rx-7 because a rx8 just doesn't have enough torque to catch up to the wrx. Trust me man i've raced 8's plenty of times they dont catch up until I hit 120.

Well since you've raced a few 8's as you claim, I guess we can close this thread now since you've basically answered your first question. The trolling can stop now!

OH yeah and I've raced my friend's WRX with both of my cars. He's got CAI and exhuast and I'm sorry but it doesn't beat the 8 or my S2K. Keep dreaming, you don't drive an STi buddy...

Although I was a little disappointed in that the 8 didn't totally slaughter the WRX like I thought I would have, but it still beat the little impreza.
