Default RS4 v WRX

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoTVb...eature=related



No it's not me but is a red WRX! There are pedestrians walking towards them several times! They can't have any respect for their own or anyone elses lives - unbelievable.

I can't view the link as I'm at work and it won't let me play youtube vids.

I was able to read the comments on youtube and they seem to be impressed with the drivers skill.

I can't comment as I haven't yet seen it. But I do hope they were not taking too bigger risks.

Agreed, the number of vehicles that jumped out of the way. One car took to the hard shoulder almost completely, otherwise I don't know that the WRX would have made it through a gap. The screams from the tyres, they really weren't holding back, taking "racing" lines through the corners. Not the sort of thing you want to see on the public roads.

Pair of ar5eholes driving like that on public roads. I don't give a toss about their lives but they'd probably take a family with them. Disgraceful!!

The Scoob had 2 or 3 good chances to overtake the Audi, but chickened out each time. He even let that other weedy repmobile get ahead of him. Ponce.

Nice road and countryside though. They must have covered over 15 miles in those 9 minutes.

The Scoob had a much better driver, RS4 seemed to bottle it a bit in the bends.

A WRX, even a modified one, is no match at all for an RS4 in a straight line, and I speak from experience.

That said, very dangerous driving, should be ashamed, etc etc etc.

Just watched this 3x awesome video, but on a public road - lunacy imho,i was waiting to see the big accident at the end ,thankfully it never happened. Considering the 'grunt' the RS4 has on the straights,that scoob has collosal traction in the bends,and you can hear his tyres begging for mercy as he is clearly much quicker on the twistys.

The cars are weapons, but driven by complete tools.

The scoop looks more STI than WRX... if it was a WRX then fair play

Great to watch but some of the overtaking moves were crazy.....Brazilian drivers must be very accommodating to street racing...

He was able to reign in the RS4 quite easily after letting the rep mobile past... and the Audi driver looked out of his comfort zone on a few of those tighter corners ..
but hell when the RS4 nailed it he was gone and given a clear road probably would have shaken the scooby 1/3rd into the hill.....he got slower (or the WRX got quicker) towards the bottom

When the road was busy, then they should have slowed down. I would have.

But if there isn't much traffic about, and they don't do anything that would cause an accident, then fair play to them.

Most of us on here has pretty fast cars. We all open them out when the road and weather allows.

Anyone on here that states speeding on the public roads is dangerous, log on to:-

You shouldn't admit to opening your car up on a public road on here mate.

I once asked the question and I had every man and his dog coming on here and telling me they never speed.

After all, that's why they drive 350+bhp cars - to never go over the speed limit.

And if they were driving within their limits...

I'm surprised they chose to race going down the hill... makes more sense to nail it up that mountain road...but then again..the RS4 would have obliterated
the WRX

Sorry, but you are a ****! Would you openly drive like that on a public road????? Obviously you are still wet behind the ears and your favourite film is the fast and the furryarse.
If you killed or maimed anyone with your idiotic actions would you then think driving like that was "Acceptable"???

You can be the best driver in the world, but you can never ever predict what others might do.

Is there any STD Impreza that can keep up with an RS4?
