I'll give credit where credit is due. But I didn't see a flagman. I don't know if the SS gave the STi the bump or what (which would have been VERY stupid), but the SS looked like he sat there for a good couple of seconds after the Rex left.
Everyones overplaying those AWD cars IMO. There quick and I got nothing against a import or whatever personally, but any idiot knows that they have a MAJOR advantage on the street.
You put me in the seat of a LS1 A4 car with a couple of bolt-ons, about a 4,4k conv., and a set of ET streets, and line me up beside a AWD turbo car...

I don't think the SS sat there... I think thats just the illussion you get when you see an AWD car launch.
Car Info:
STI - godspeed downpipe, Blitz sus, gt spec header, perrin crank pully.
2002 ss camaro - 4.10 gears, march crank pullys, hypertech programmer, cold air intake, drag rads.

You registered to this site just to post a video of you beating a camaro, if every f-body owner on this site went to a import rice burning message board with footage of a camaro blowin the doors of a fart canned car talkin about ownage, there would be an uproar from the rice burners site that we posted on.

Ok, sorry I see that your probly not the owner of the rex, but I just don't see the point of posting that here. IMO your obvisously not an f-body enthusiast so why register here. Maybe I'm wrong to say anything so Welcome Aboard.

Actually I own a 96 maro and am a big f-body enthusiast. I also purhcased a Rex recenlty. So I have nothing against domestics or imports. I posted the video cause I thought it was cool.... notice I'm not flaming anybody. If people have a problem with it than maybe they're the one's with the problem. I bet all the members here would be very happy if the SS won, but just b/c the out come was the opposite that does not mean I'm biased toward imports. Let's not turn this into domestic vs import thread. A true car enthusiast should not be biased so when I get a chance I will post vids of maros winning races... that way everybody is happy!!!

TO ME, the STi's are butt ugly, BUT I do respect what they're capable of and would pick my battles accordingly.
I'm sure alot of STi/Evo guys might think my Z28 is ugly too, but I would hope most respect what the LS1 is capable of.
...Now if I only had a video of my high speed freeway molesting of a black Evo on the way back from Vegas last weekend...
It was ugly for him
, but on the flipside I'd be weary of a stoplight race with one.
