EVO vs STI shootout. who's going?

Who's going to evo vs sti shootout? Just wanted to know if big # evo's and high whp sti's clash to the never ending battle.

To me. I already thought evo had the "#1 drag awd" in the bag.

Last's evo vs sti shootout ended up bad for urabus's....
.it was brutal like pitbulls vs poodles

I'm going, but I'm just going to watch (and film a bit). My MR only has 700 miles on it so I'm not ready to flog it just yet.

as a owner of an sti that was traded to buy the evo 9 mr i will say that they are both good cars, pretty much equal, it all comes down to the driver on the stock car. On moded cars, all depends on mods. And whoever said sti's are slow, trust me, they are fast as **** . i used to own one

I got alot of footage there today. The fastest STi ran mid 11's I think (at least until 2pm when I left). EVO's were all over the map, from 9.09 to low 14's with most of 'em (probably at least 50) running between 11's and 12's. I was pretty impressed actually.

Like I said, I got a few gigs of video, so I just gotta dump it to the computer and then I'm not sure what to do from there. If I can post it somehow I will.

I was really tempted to stop in at Buschur Racing (didn't know it was right off rt 20) but I figured they were probably all at the track. Think I wanna look into a stage1 upgrade for next spring perhaps
