Great 3 way race single file....WRX,TL-P,Civic rice

So I'm playin with a blue WRX red light to red light and a riced civic is trying to keep up. I've got a TL-P with I/H/E, an '00. So at the next light it's going to be a a slight uphill race for 1/4 mile and it's three lanes wide with only the slow right lane available. Time is 7:10 AM! So the WRX zips there followed by me and the civic. When the light turned green the four wheel drive chirps hard and takes me by two car lengths and I noticed alot of brownish or dusty looking exhaust coming out of the WRX. What suprised me was that my car just stayed right there with him 'till 80, never moving up or back, dead even! Then we let off (another light) and about 30 sec. later here comes the civic, man that was funny. Was a good race, was real pleased that I stayed with him. Oh by the way I guess it was so early I was in D5 the whole time, forgot all about using the gate, oh well.

Wrx's are quick off the line, but after that they are mediocre. Their power curve flattens out a couple of thousand rpms before the redline. Good run, sounded like fun.
