Ha ha ha - he was ****ed...
Warning: This post is mildly obnoxious, and only those of you who also enjoy playing with people occasionally will enjoy it.
Afternoon boredom relief: While driving a little while ago I see a bright blue WRX coming up behind me fast. Thinking it's the same one I ran into a few weeks ago (who REALLY wanted to race - then REALLY wanted to make up for losing...), I wait for him at a stop. Sure enough, he pulls up beside me and starts revving his engine.
We go, and I'm pulling him hard...and thinking "wow, WRX's are this slow?!?" So I let off, and as he pulls up I realize it's actually a bright blue Mazdaspeed Protege (okay, so I wasn't paying attention). Oh...that explains it. Fun over, I'm proceeding on my way until he zips by flashing me the universal sign of displeasure.
As I pull up beside him at a light, he's giving me the stare. So deciding to help this guy out with his 'tude, I roll down my window and said "sorry, my bad...thought you were a WRX".
Homeboy got it, and he was ****ed - he was screaming "but I'm turbo" as I pulled away.

Everyone here claims how they smoke the WRX, even the autos, which is kinda funny cause those cars are pretty fast. I have a 2k2 and raced my buddy's WRX at lest 7 times and he had my each time, not by much after 70, but off the line he killed me every time. BTW my 1/4 is 14.7 so Im a decent driver.

no stock auto max should take a wrx off the line... pending the wrx driver can drive his stick. however, by reading posts on wrx races including races ive had with one, it seems wrx drivers are very inconsistent drivers and thus it goes either way each race.

so you think if you had a stick it would be a closer race with the wrx?

Re the WRX, obviously should have clarified that I beat him from a roll, so he didn't have the advantage of the AWD launch. That's why I was going to try him from a stop (better get that launch right pal...)

Aren't all WRX's 'bright blue'??? Hehehe.
Seriously though, I've seen quite a few of these guys who really don't know how to drive those cars so it wouldn't surprise me if someone in a Maxima hands a WRX his a$$ every now and then. You really need to keep the revs up to get that car to perform. Most people probably don't drive like this often though.

The MP3 Proteges were limited production cars. They don't make them anymore. I think the only real addition to the MP3 is the Kenwood MP3 deck. http://old.soliton.net/protege/index.shtml?specs

Pulled him hard, but you'd expect a Max to do that to a 140 OR a 170 HP Protege, so...
It was pretty funny though

I don't know about Max's taking WRX's... if it is two experienced driver... and the Max modded with bolt ons 2k2 against a WRX with only a boost controller and the rest all stock... let me just say, if your Max is not running 13's, then u aren't going to win...
A stock WRX with only a boost controller, and uping the PSI, you'll be killed easily... I don't want to admit it, but WRX is hands down fast, pending who is behind the Wheel....
