I've noticed... the guys with the really fast cars have problems over at NASIOC and I-Club... someone casually says "well, I'm putting 450 to the ground" and everyone else is instantly skeptical, since that's not easy to do, and it's very easy on a forum to make shit up. It seems like it taks a magazine article to prove it to those guys.

Plus it's easy to get defensive... I can't imagine how much work and money it takes to get a WRX up over 400hp... After all that time, money, and bloody knuckles, it's easy to get pissed when peple won't recognize your hard work. And as soon as you're defensive, they take that as a sign that you're lying (which logically makes no sense...)

Since this forum is more personal than the big ones, I'll tend to believe you guys, since eventually I'll see what you got with my own eyes.

Sorry to you Evan if I ever came off like I didn't believe you about the Porsche or the Viper... I do believe you hung with those guys... I just don't believe is was solely due to your WRX... it was more due to driver skill (yours and their lack of it). Either way, no one questions the potential of these little rex's... they continually exceed everyone's expectations.
