You'll be better on corners (all things being equal, like driver's ability), and he'll probably have the run in a straight line.

Here we go again
Initially the impreza will take the lead but when the 2wd cossie grips it will just go and will gain (very slowly) on you (depends on how good the driver is and how good the engine is).
Too many variables to say which is quicker, you will have to go to york raceway or the likes and take him down the strip.

Cool

A Standard MY99 UK Wagon WILL beat a Standard Escort Cosworth

Been there - done it

There are two ways of looking at this

From a scooby owners POV - Yes the scoob is faster than the Corworth

From a Corworth owners POV - Yes the Corworth is faster Scoob


Take your pock, the Twusties are a different matter to the Traffic Light Grand ******
