i did think you were more mature than that. i agree scoobs were meant for enthusiastic driving but not 110 on a dual carriage way...

LOL, 5 pages of the usual drivel about how racing on a public road is worse than rape, pillage of theft Friendly challenge is a normal characteristic of human nature (especially in males) - rodgering something without its permission is not! And yet curiously they are almost dealt with in the same manner I digress I'm a fan of a vs thread; always interesting to read

However, I'm astounded that we are 5-pages in and nobody has even questioned how the **** a 300bhp post-classic scooby is keeping up with an RS4 (old or new) in the first 3 gears? Unless, by keeping up you mean he actually pulled 5 car lengths (i.e on a point of technicallity you could still read his plate!) on you to 110mph and then it was warp drive time

If it's a dual carraigeway like the southern bypass then who cares?

If it's one which is a 40 limit with houses either side set back,then yes it's stupid.

The insults actually started on page 1.

So racing @ 3 figure speeds on the public highway is acceptable to you then?

On the subject posted I would say that you shouldn't be suprised that you managed to keep up with the RS4 as a 06 STi PPP will do 0-60 in 4.8 whilst the RS4 is 0-62 in 4.8. I am unbiased as we have an RS4 and a SPEC-C RA in the family

No comment on anything else on this thread

Not saying it's acceptable or not.

Martin carry on enjoying your impreza and next time make sure your in front of the RS4 so you can spray stones over it's paint work.
