He was in front and we were merging onto an interstate. I had my foot to the floor and walked me. [:-]

I had an 87 vette convertible a few years ago. I got pulled by a Grand Prix GTP.
That's not surprising. Those GTP's are respectable.


As far as embarrassing losses...I lost by a car to a nearly stock Foxbody. At the track I got spanked by a Honda CRX, it was built like a **** though, but still, it was a CRX [:'(]

I lost to a 350z once from a roll, should have creamed him, but my buddy messed up my tune and I was only running like 18 degrees of total timing, which is way low [:@].

Haha ouch dude!! Don't feel too bad though, the Forester XTs are boosted and have a very similar engine setup to the STi...which means they can be modded easily as well. I've seen some badass Foresters at the Subaru meets!!
