Exeter Subaru has held an annual Father's Day event at the neighboring New England Dragway for Subaru owners and fans of the WRX/WRX STi. They essentially rent the drag strip for the day (among other things) and allow owners to drag their cars as many times as they wish.
My best time was a 14.0 second run at 97 miles an hour in my 2002 WRX with TurboXS stage 1 (remapped ECU and boost controller), and SPT axle back muffler.
I don't believe this run was my 14.0 second run, but I won just the same. I'm in the lane closest to the camera.
Unless its running 12's why post it on youtube?

nah.. look at the starting line and the lights at the end.. its no faster than a 14 believe me. Sorry.. a 13 is just not that impressive.. its a fair baseline sure.. but nothing to brag about...there are a million cars out there that run a 13 or better out of the box naturally aspirated.

It looked faster than a 14 to me. WRX and STi's are fast. Most cars on the street can't run a 14. Think of how many accords, camrys, cavaliers, tauruses, are out there. Most of those are lucky to run under a 16. I've seen old muscle cars demolish a 14, yeah I agree with you. But my STi runs low 13's with a 2.5 liter and is stock not a 5000 plus cc engine. And those cars your talking about are modded. Modded wrx and sti can run under 11 with 2 liter engines. Just use fair comparison.
