Talk about instigating a gunfight with a knife, lol. Street racing is dumb. Street racing a Cobra is especially dumb.

Cobras have IRS, they can corner believe it or not.

Assuming it wasn't just the usual internet storytelling seen on all enthusiast forums (ours included), I really doubt the BRZ driver thought he could do anything against a Cobra. Probably just wanted to hear its awesome engine roar.

Seriously +1 to the OP... people like this need to stop making us look like a douchebags.
It was probably some prick on a test drive...thought it would be fun to show off to his girl. Judging by the description...sounds like someone who would be perfect for Jersey Shore.

Sure the BRZ is underpowered now, but in a few months they will be some new goodies to put under the hood to make it a banshee of its own

This is why most forums ban 'kill' stories. 0-60 or 1/4 mile is only one aspect of evaluating a car's performance. People dwell on it too much some times because it is easy to compare.
We all buy different cars for different reasons. |

Also right now i feel the people in this thread so far are preferring the benefit of a doubt to one person over another for improper reasons. A little bit of impartiality would not do any harm until that person who wikiweaks is speaking of can come give HIS version of the story. And there is nothing groundbreaking about pressing on the gas peddle in a straight line,it's obvious it's not a drivers race at that point given the huge difference in the power that both those engines are producing :-) |
