How much does it cost? Curious to hear what the WRX ran too.

He ran a Nova that took this 100 shot off. Terry got him off the line of course but the Nova came around. It was close and was a real good race.

6 with a college ID to run - Free with a college ID just to watch - I think maybe 7-8 without ID to run and like $5 to watch with no ID. The WRX runs in the 7's, but I think he may have broke into 6's one time. Dont quote me though.

Not trying to stir the pot, but I'm surprised to hear all this talk about the WRX only to hear it runs in the 7's. Maybe it's my own ignorance, but I guess I assumed it was running 6's consistently considering it was said to be a full race car and nothing else.

I guess low 7's are still pretty ridiculous either way, but I had higher hopes.

I moreso meant it was expensive for me, lol.

The wrx is still relatively intact I thought. Still had interior and such. There was a busa up there that was all primer, his MPH didn't match the ET for crap, must have been worn out.

Low 7's is pretty quick, depending on the trap a low 7 e/t can mean a 6 sec run but couldn't get traction. At that power level it's hard to hook.

A low 7 could produce a low 11s POSSIBLY high 10s in the 1/4 just depending on what kind of top end mods you have done. Def. a strong car if it is still street legal.
