Subaru 0 - Old ford 1
I was doing 115mph yesterday on the shavington bypass near crewe in my WRX and an F reg sierra cossie came past me like I was standing still. It was all hunkered down at the rear and sounded amazing. He never even had a run up, just pulled out from behind and booted it. We both waved and thumbs up to show there was no hard feelings. God them cars were great werent they.

I've seen it about before and get the impression the owner doesn't like being overtaken by Scoobs. Went past it on the M56 once, it didn't like it so undertook me to get in front very quickly.

just sold a 3 door and a 4x4 cozzy. 415bhp more torque than the mother inlaw. Now sulking looking at the wrx!
Cozzys are fantastic, but £500 everytime it catches a cold, tin worm chassis, taxi like saphire's, 20 year old ecu's, as long as a bus, dont turn in sharp enough....... cant get em to be reliable like rice rockets....
Collecting fully sorted ra end of the month for sprinting.....anyone want a wrx?
Perhaps the wrx will do for autocross.

Ive got a 580brake heavily modded escort cossy
which would wipe the floor with most road scoobs but put it against a 580bhp scoob and things would probably be different
Standard against standard the scoob would trounce the cossy
