  • not to bring down the sti.....but any idiot can launch it especially with a LAUNCH CONTROL!!!!! LOL. they will always beat an fbody from the line .......but we could see the TA was catching up FAST.......js

  • @BlazejLW10 Launch control is a rev limiter.. thats all.... his was an automatic all he had to do was push the gas... haha and no he was catching up because i let off at the 1/8 mile.

  • Take care with the Cobb stage 2 OTS map and a catless downpipe, the OTS is made for a catted DP.

  • U could see the TA was going to win at top end, dats y they cutt the video.

  • Any idiot can launch a wrx with LC, takes skill to hook a fbody. I've owned/own both

  • Looks like the STi totally got the Pontiac from the line. Would like to see more in car video since the T/A was catching up FAST! I am an 09 WRX driver with a pretty nice Stage 2 setup that can beat a lot of V-8s in the 1/8th...a 1/4 mile, the V-8s start gaining ground fast and usually win by a small margin. Gotta love V-8 grunt :)

  • @ShinWR1- you're so funny... Idiot.

  • I had my bet on the dude with the bike was gonna win. LOL

  • Sounds like the wrx has a launch control :)

  • Im not arguing abt the transmission...i just stated what they meant. And you are still talking abt the tranny as a whole instead of the purpose of sixth gear.

  • with a good driver that t/a wouldnt lose.sti dont run bad tho.

  • @railyou262 They were not talking abt the tranny as a whole...only about sixth gear, and yes , sixth gear was meant for saving fuel.

  • @shoppy16 its isnt the same tranny. The 08+ has the legacy transmission the sti is its own

  • I thought the kid on the bike would have smoked them both.

    Lol.

  • camaros are slow

  • what did the person in the wrx set is LC from i got mine at 4k in a 2011

  • He's in a wrx not an sti other wise he woulda raped it even more lol and funny how someone always has to say "Man did you see how he cut the vid whenthe other guy was catching up" yeah no he quit filming because THE RACE WAS OVER lol Good vid btw bro

  • @SSCAMAROKIDD hate to break it to you but the 2009+ wrx is quicker in the 1/4 than the STI mostly due to gearing (5sp > 6sp in 1/4)

  • @aaronacj huh......didnt realize that kinda makes me wonder why ive beaten wrx's in 06 all the time :/ my buddy drives a 2010 wrx sedan and ive never lost to him and we did a race at our local strip back in july and yeah i know the gearings different all 6th gear is really meant for is just fuel economy haha

  • @SSCAMAROKIDD Ya i don't think you have any clue what you're talking about. The 6 speed has short gears aimed at keeping the engine in its power zone when doing something other than taveling in a strait line as fast as you can, for example auto cross. I raced a few new SSs at the 1/4 last spring in my 09 and beat them... based off factory 1/4 times it's mostly a drivers race, the camero does trap higher but the 09+ WRX tends to get better 60ft times when both are stock.

  • @aaronacj  ok dude obviously your an expert but even when I asked my mechanic at my local subie deal what the big deal about my 6th gear was he said that 6th gear is mainly for fuel efficiency Ive NEVER heard of a 6th gear being for power but again your the expert here so sorry everyone was wrong and wow you must either be one hell of a driver or have raced shitty drivers in the 1/4 because theres quite a few 5th gen camaros where im at and sti's will beat them but not by much

  • @SSCAMAROKIDD never said 6th gear isn't for fuel eco... I said the 6 speed, as in a 6 speed tranny. The trans is a much better tranny (6 sp) for staying in the cars power band through twistys. The gears are short so that's why they add a 6th tall gear for HWY driving. 09+ WRX and STi put down about the same power to the wheels, the WRX is under rated. the reason WRX is quicer in the 1/4 is due to gearing and they are slightly lighter. WRX only shifts twice to 60 and has on less shift in the 1/4

  • @aaronacj OH ok I got ya see I thought we were arguing on something else haha so basically what your saying is the underrated wrx is a fast car down the 1/4 than the sti but the sti is faster around corners etc etc cause that makes perfect sense to me if that is what your saying lol

  • @SSCAMAROKIDD your a dipshit. i posted the vid and its my rex. the 6 speed is not for fuel economy, that would be rediculous to build a rally racing sports car transmission for fuel economy??? And if you look at my other vids i race and 06 sti with same mods and smoked his assfrom bottom to top

  • funny how he stops recording when the trans am starts catching up

  • question. do you get any boostcreep running a catless downpipe? and what catback are you running.. thanks. Oh and nice kill. silly trans am

  • @TheRealCHAGiEE

    i have the same setup but different exhaust and my sti is an 08 but i got boost creep once but only because i had my cobb tune on the wrong setting. once i change it ive been fine since and its been a few months.

  • Nice Kill!
