i've rode in dan's car a couple of times and it is very fast, a little to laggy for me, but hey thats just my opinion. I may be about to get flamed, but I think a porsche is in a completely different league than the STi, this coming from a STi owner. If you doubt me, look at the porsche's hertiage, compared to subaru's. No matter how many aftermarket parts we add to our cars, the porsche will still be a better designed car, period.

I wasnt at all trying to make any specific comparisons, Im just using examples. I know what the STI limitations are, and no its not as well designed as a Porsche. That wasnt the point here. But with the right parts, it (and many other cars) can be made to perform as well as a Porsche or an exotic, for much less money overall.

^^^ so you were wrong if track was dry it would go 1.27.5 like the porsche 911 GT3

What are you talking about? Thats a normal 997 carrera s. I already said it was really wet on that run, but thats irrelevant. We arent discussing that car.

how about this you bring your 600whp sti out and brandon will bring his porsche and we'll find out?

I wish that STI was mine. Mine is stock, although Id be glad to take it up to N. Georgia mountains and see whats what. I just got it last month, so I havent had time to really see what it can do.

it wasn't really aimed at you, just throwing my 2 cents out. make no mistake, i love my car, but i know its rank in the food chain.
