Nice.

Did you guys go to the track or anything?
 
Some people ripped it around the track. It has ppl rollerblading tho, so the limit is 30km/h, let's just say that the security was pissed off and were about to lock us on the island and call the police :)
 
What kind of Subarus are those? They've presumably all been modded.
 
Those are WRX STI's. The scoop and that subtle wing come stock with the STI.

Where was the car crusher? Would hate to waste perfectly good metal.



Just kidding, a co-worker owns a WRX STI, souped up a bit. At Willow Springs, he's decreased his lap times from 1:35's to 1:30's. Another driver with a 2006 Z06 running Hoosier slicks is running 1:26's though, those cars are really fast.

The stock STi is nowhere near as fast as a C6 Z06 :)
 
Nice! I drive a modded WRX myself. You should come hang out at www.wrxfanatics.com[/URL] (if you're not already a member), I'm a mod there. :smile:

Well, good luck, Subarus are great cars! They're very quick and they handle very well.

And some people are quite willing to rob a bank to get one : http://www.theadvertiser.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5936,19316280%255E1702,00.html :smile:
