doubt he beat a WS6 if he is stock.. im a little modified and i cant pull on Formula-WS6 from TR.. but nice runs anyhow.. and your right.. $1000 will make the WRX a great little stop light racer.. but the clutch/tranny is the part you need to be careful with.. people are used to being able to dump it into 2nd gear and chirp the tires.. on the WRX drivetrain if you dont allow a little bit of slippage the slack in the drive train will shred your gears.. specially if you have more power than stock..
i want the RT Spec kit from Cobb tuning.. $4800 and 12 second time slips.. about 320 HP...
