the 2.5RS really isn't that quick.................165hp to all 4 wheels..........you're looking at MAYBE 120hp at the wheels............on launch he MIGHT have you, but I think you can take him.

Doesn't the AWD cars substain a heavier drivestrain loss than a front wheel drive car? the 02' WRX only lays down 140 something hp to the wheels (I think). Tractions is there, but if the RS doesn't have ample power to the wheels its a lost cause. I can see the RS winning in a wet condition, not on a dry pavement.

thats what I was saying.
