Subaru WRX and the wet "twisties"
 

Which is quicker?

A WRX on 3mm of rubber on the wet twisties, or a Clio 182 on 7mm of rubber?

Or...a WRX on cheap 5mm of Nang Kang rubber or a Civic on 5mm if Michelins?

........just a thought :)

well the wrx may have the upper hand in overall grip.... but it just wont turn in as quick surely ?

What an utter load of toss.......... What does it matter? , The subaru afterall is designed for dirt tracks and gravel covered roads.

Seriously though, it would depend on the driver not the rubber, and not the same driver in all cars, certain drivers will drive certian cars quicker, that life.

:lol: The person you bought your scoob from lied, i'm sorry to break it to you, but your subaru is designed for tarmac, road use. A road subaru would last a short distance on any offroad track at full chat;) . Never the less it does have a fair whack of grip but the extremity of any decent offroad track would shake a "rallying" road impreza to bits.

Bit harsh......he was only wondering:wonder:

I do apologise, I never knew that.

I thought I was comparing road cars.....however you raise a valid point. If it is, as you say, for dirt tracks and gravel, why on earth did they put expensive grippy summer tyres on 17inch rims?

toodle pip.
