Ferrari Discussion/Got beat by a Subaru!!
http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthr...1&page=1&pp=20
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH, brillant!!!!

I hate Subaru's!!! Looked like a new WRX. That little sh*t is fast. He was on my tail going up Cold Water Canyon, so I stepped on it and tried to pull away but couldn't shake this guy!! So he finally passed me and just kept pulling away. I'm a pretty good driver but this guy just out powered me. I know there is no comparison between the two cars but it still bugs me that a 30K 4 cylinder car can do this to a 360.

LOL, dude, just cause it's a Ferrari doesn't mean it's the fastest thing on the road.

360 isn't that fast...its the "slowest" and "cheapest" ferrari compare to the other new ferraris.
And Subaru isn't a slow car, that Ferrari owner should know that 4 cyl boxer engine is turbocharged and can be faster then V8, cause the short pistons...

I am guessing the WRX was modded, as in a straight line the 360 would surely beat the Subaru in standard form. 
Through the corners I would guess they would have similar perfomance......

Besides - the Scubi driver was obviously willing to be wilder than the F-car driver... who had a lot more at stake - like his shiny new paint work and designer hairdo..
It is a rather old post for one thing - and thinking about it, I wonder how bad of a driver the 36 driver was, because out in the backroads even an STi is pretty easy to dispathc with once the speeds get above 120.

Huh you go 120MPH on the backroads? on twisties even??!!!
So your calling the F360 driver a bad driver for not doing the same?
What kind of twisties can you go 120MPH? They're a more accuratly referred to as straights if its @120MPH
If your going to say your talking about KPH, 120 the WRX still has plenty of fight in it, especially the STi on twisties.

You're right! The Subaru wasn't stock for sure.
But, a guy who says "I'm a pretty good driver" deserves to be humiliated
This guy will sell the Ferrari and buy an Impreza, for sure !

Dunno about what you drive or where you drive it, but rounding bends at 60, 70 or 80mph is pretty easy with the correct hardware, and once you exit such a bend, 100mph and soom 120 pass by very quickly - even on a very short straight for that matter.
As I say, chasing Scubi's and M3's thourhg the woods, they are pretty easy with a good drive out the bends

HaHa there were quite a few of them admitting that the STi is one hell of a car then AllanLambo shows his face and pulls the whole well you should tell the scubi driver about Ferrari's racing heritage.

Amusing read, though more than a year old. Hopefully the 360 driver will now understand his car isn't the fastest thing on the road. It was a good lesson for him

There's a similar post on an M3 forum somewhere about a Saab 93SE

Well the it's been said above, being a Ferrari doesn't mean your the fasted on the road, maybe in the 60's yeah, but not now....
Look at least he came out and said it, not hiding the truth, so well done to him, go buy the F430 mate, u might stand a chance then....
^^ totally joking, please put your flame guns down....
