s197 GT vs Sti
Me vs a stage 2 Sti.
apparently it has a pretty aggresive tune and the guy only street races.. refuses to go to the track.. and also apparently drives like a maniac (will do 120 in 35mph zones with traffic)
So i'm not even sure I should race him.. But he loves to race and my friend at work is wanting me to do it.. how do you think this will go down.
I might be getting some M&H Dragradials and lowercontrol arms soonish.

If he's gonna do 120mph on grand ave. or 24th then I wouldn't do it.
Your life is to important. Forget about the car.
IMO it's a driver's race. He has an advantage on the launch but not so much on the top end.
MT got a 4.5 second 0-60 and a 13.0 1/4 mile time for the STI. I believe that was for an 06.

i did a little searching on an 06 stage 2 sti:
Cobb Stage 2 STi the numbers will generally range from 290AWHP/300+WTQ and about 310+AWHP/330AWTQ with a good protune.
and his isn't dyno tuned.. mail order tuned refined with data logging I believe.

I dunno...I don't see your car even going in low 13's unless you definitely have some tires. You just aren't putting enough hp or tq to the ground with pretty much no mods. I think he's got you both ways. Especially with a tune.
