I was at the track that day, the traction was horrible, it had rained all day, an STI was going 14.6's and wrx's were spinning all the way through frist gear, i seen like 5 cars get below 14 seconds and most had over 400hp in them. The car is capable of mid-high 13's with mods on a different day. Nice work Martin, I know we are running mid-high 13's next time in Miramichi strip

i can see how you would say there was no traction. but there is no way in hell the wrx's were spinning through first gear, unless they were about 800 whp

there was still moisure all over the rubber at the start line, it rained all day and the crew did a crap job drying it up, i was there and they were spinning, I mean even a ford fucus that was stock was spinning through first. when a 5spd 2001 mustang with many bolt ons and drag radials runs 14.7 its bad traction

sorry bud but there is no way in hell there were stock wrx's or even slighly ones spinning all the way through first gear. not possible. ive got a ton of friends here with stock wrx's, legacy gt's, sti's, and then modded ones as well, and none of them spin all the way through first in the rain or shitty pavement. hell my buddy's stage 2 legacy wont even slide the ass around in a 1st gear punch in the pouring rain. it runs 10.40's in the 1000.

again not sayign there wasnt bad traction, just calling bs on teh extreme exaggeration

The time the MS3 got on that run is 15.0 I forget its trap. Something like 93mph. That was actually the guys best run of the day!! When quick silver says STI was doinf 14.5, its true. I didnt see the traction issues however becuase i didnt see it off hand, but after talking to the STI owner, his best run was 14.5.

Traction was crappy like Quicksilverss said. I did had 16's on, so it spun more than usual, but compared to the other #'s, I was satisfied.

Oh and did I mention it was humid as hell... A stock SS/SC best run was 14.8 with driver modds. He ran 15's all day.

Now this is REALLY CRAPPY track, so it is possible a crappy driver in a stock WRX could spin through first.
are they launching at like 45,000 RPM. you guys must have gotten the uber rare plastic tire mod from teh factory. oh yeah that the LGT i was telling you cuts 1.76's at redline launch. if thsoe cars are gonna spin, this LGT would have done so by now

In Internet terminology, a troll is someone who intentionally posts derogatory or otherwise inflammatory messages about sensitive topics in an established online community such as an online discussion forum to bait users into responding.[1] They may also plant images and data on networks that others may find disturbing (usually indirectly relating to the individual in person) in order to cause confrontation.
-from wikipedia.

i did nothing of the sort. i didn't bait people into responding, and the video wasnt disturbing. the topic wasn't a sensitive topic either.

we were just trying to discuss that thread. (some of you know the topic.. not important)

you however, keep trolling and are only posting in threads related to an imported vehicle. therefore i say again.. "you sir are a troll"

p.s. I am not black.

I dont launch very high at all. I was launching at 3000rpm. Now no one can say that our cars at 3000rpm are beast by any means. I guess you had to be there to see it. You had to be there to beleive it. Cars where ssoooo much slower than they where supose to. I can say that the guy running a stock SS/SC at 14.8 ran the crap out of that car. And mine at 14.2 I gave it all it had. Maybe with a little more practise 14.1 but that was it that day. I was constant 14.4 where the stock ss/sc was a constant 15flat
