They should find them and lock them up.

Driving fast on clear roads is one thing, what they did was just plain stupid.

To be honest i thought the Audi would of been a lot quicker than that considering it's just a WRX.

I like a good blast but that was pure madness. Undertaking at the same time the other car was forcing through on the other side!!!!! so many close calls, you could see people swerving all the time!!

I also counted 4 people walking on the hard shoulder plus a load of broken down lorrys and the **** in the audi kept using the hard shoulder to take the racing line without being able to see what was round the corners on the hard shoulder!

With you on that, cost and engine size it should bloody be. Score one for Wrx I think.

Still mental though. Thought a big crash was coming

No score at all i think. The Wrx was not std for starters. You could hear the pipe so maybe it was running a few horses more than std but then again, who says it wasn't tuned to over 300 horses?????
As said above - the RS comfortably eased away on the straights, but the driver didn't have the ***** for the3 corners.
Either way - they were both dicks

dicks they were, but I thought the RS4 looked a bit lardy in some of the corners.
I would have expected better for £50k!

on a road like that the rs4 would be a speck in the distance.

Over 300 horses maybe, not standard maybe. 2ltr or 2.5 flat four?? Up against a 4.2 v8 pushing 420ps??? Which costs a hell of a lot more than the Impreza
So yeah, one of the WRX.
right about dicks though.

Pretty irresponsible driving, did you see where that chap was walking along the side? So nearly splattered. Also a number of times they were pretty much running other people off the road, not particularly safe when you're on a mountainous road.

That said, it was interesting to see how a scooby would fair up against an RS4!

He musta used about 500 quids worth of fuel too.
