RE: 05 WRX STi vs 01 Camaro Z28
A guy I work with LOVES sti's, and we rced over 10 times in one hour, he has over 9 grand in engine and suspension mods to his STI. I was bone stock... With an AUTO yet, and he could only keep up to me to 60 MPH, after that, sheer power took over, and I pulled ahead...

carguy that doesnt sound right either. there are a ffew STi guys around my town which are modded to about the extent of this guy. they are quick and could take out a stock vette, however it does sound goofy to pull on a highway roll when the vette has full boltons. he probably beat the driver in this case, still no shame in that

speaking expressly stock to stock... from a dig or a roll win should go to the LS1 all things being equal from a dig STi should jump out but get reeled in just like the evo in low 3rd gear... from a roll the camaro should pull and never stop pulling

I think I could beat a stock 03 Cobra, b/c the guy with the C5 vette with bolt ons I raced said he beat a stock 02 C5 Z06 in his Vette. And he now owns a cobra, and he said a stock 03 cobra is a very good race with a C5 Z06, so I think that means I can beat a cobra. But regardless, I think I do so well is b/c I know my car too well and it's optimal shift points and the opposition just doesn't drive too well then.

The car is probably capable of hitting 11's. Others have done it with the mods that I have and they've gotten the times down to 11.7's on the stock turbo. But it is an extremely rare case.
