HUH? Who in Florida could have raced me? I have raced a few/lot of WRX's and I loose but it is still fun! They don't really take off 'till 3rd gear. There was one that I beat but I didn't understand it. I raced him from light to light twice and beat him then he followed me to the highway and we did pulls from all over the place 30,45,60 and I beat him every time, he must not have been able to drive a stick or something? And YES he was racing me.

The WRX's always give me a thumbs up since they have no idea my SUV can get up and move that quick. On our Alaska strip there are not too many fast cars at all (anymore cops took it over) and the WRX's pretty much took anything 2 years back, but after I got the SCer I started giving them a descent run.

When did he say this happened? I haven't really raced anyone for a year now, except at the track.

College buddies plus the movie "Reservoir Dogs". We just started nicknaming each other "Mr." this and "Mr." that. You have to see the movie to really get it.

Actually, I was Mr. Purple once.

Actually he is in Alaska - I read it on another online forum similar to this one, with a bunch of AK Subie folks chatting. I was just scanning posts for references to VX's just for the heck of it and came across it. I didn't catch all the details, but I remember several references to a military base in the area in his posts, and I think a few of those folks must live/work there. I don't want to start a thing between the two forums or something, though. I don't particularly care for their cars aesthetically any more than some Subaru enthusiasts apparently do for our VX's, but ya have to admit that's a pretty cool little car anyway. I've grown to like them more from seeing them at all the rallycrosses (and I think they have some respect for the VX's too, especially when we beat some of 'em).

Cool! He'll tell some of his Subie friends you beat his WRX, they'll be dumbfounded, and it may help add to the VX mystique. :-)

Yeah, these guys talk about a "strip" as well...

Now you're gonna make me have to go back and try to find it... LOL...

Ok, got it... date is 5/14/04... but I read the whole thing this time and I'm more annoyed this time. I had missed some of the comments before because I only turned up posts with the word "Vehicross" in them. Keep your cool... opinions are like a******s... everyone has one.


i owned tonite.... first kill and second kill....2 cars in a row....first one was a Isuzu VEHICROSS or watever...with NASA on the back..tribal i think u know.... I smoked him.....walked him bad in 3rd..... he couldnt get enough....and a Sierra C3 with 20s wanted some too....he jumped right with me from a stop....he powerbraked his ****....but i got him at the top of second and through 3rd gear i pulled. vehicross was just dust to us....he was way behind.... and he still wanted to run.....anyone have any info onthis white VehiCross with NASA on the back? tribal told me that it has an S/C. and it sounded like it too.... also, the C3 had exhaust and hypertech programming....pretty impressive for an all motor truck with AWD, and his wife looked like she enjoyed the street racing

hope my clutch is ok....slipped a little too much the first race and it slipped even in 2nd when i shifted...

....

What the **** is a Vehicross?

....

one of these uber fugly ****s (w/picture)

.....

Mother of God...

.....

yeah....exactly what i said when he was tailin me tryin to instigate the race...even when i was busy with teh C3....i killed that Vehicross without even trying.... my new parts made a big difference

....

Every time i see one of those I laugh. What would posess someone to buy one of those?

.....

That's the only one I've seen in town with the NASA sticker on the back. Not only to buy one, but to even put a S/C in it lol. I wonder how many HP it's pushing?

......

<laughing smilie>

......

[in response to Every time i see one of those I laugh. What would posess someone to buy one of those?]

Or Element, or Aztec, etc, etc, etc...


GRRRRRRRRRRRR....

Ohhhh he killed an SUV with over 1000 more lbs, and oversize mud tires on oooooooooo impressive, glad he bragged about it! Just goes to show I was right with him till third.

He couldn't go half the places you can, and your vehicle is much more versatile and much more unique, so don't sweat it. Kinda sounds like he thinks it could have been kinda close without his "new parts". And despite the nastiness, it sounds like he kinda maybe liked it just a little - the sound comment, the fact that he wants to know more about your VX. There's certainly no shame in losing to a WRX, and like you said, he didn't walk you until third. What you said reminds me of a Subie I saw with a tag reading SUVETR. I mean really - for the most part, is that really saying much? If we were way lighter, our trucks would suck and break because of the sacrifices made to get them lighter and faster. Racing only proves you're faster, not that you're better.
