TILL I BUILT BOOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Went to Jacksonville to look at a 63 Wildcat, brought my son and took the Turbo. On the way home heading west on Normandy Boulevard out by the Air Base I'm sitting at a red light. A beautiful white STI makes a right to go west towards the base and eyeballs the T as he turns. The Subaru is good looking with its gloss black rims on the white car with the big stainless steel exhaust peeking out the back. The speed limit is 55 but he cruises slow at maybe 35-40 waiting for me to catch up. No one else is on the road, strange considering the air base is just up ahead.
It is a cool beautiful evening as we head towards the sunset and we both have our windows open. I let off the gas to coast up and ease past him. As I pass I hear him downshift but I wait till he spools and begins to pull past me. This gives him a couple of cars lead before I have 25# boost, the tires break and the T is dancing.
My son says "dad, he's watching us in his mirror and thinking this isn't going to end well" as I reel him in and blow past so fast I did not have time to see his face. I could only hear his exhaust screaming louder than mine.
I really thought the STI would give me a better race!
I brake and slow to 45 waiting for him to catch up and see if he wants to go again. He brakes, pulls into my lane and just shadows me from about 50 yards back for a mile or so and then turns into the base.

:biggrin:
I have had MANY of kills in the Vett, but none in the GN. People just drive by and give the thumbs up. I think the GN's have too much of a reputation:wink:
