I am the owner of a Celica GT-4 JMD and my previous car was a WRX.
I`m driving the GT-4 for 10 days now and as long i`m driving the GT-4 i am discovering what an excellent car it is.
First of all i moved to the GT-4 because of reliability.The WRX i had was a Version 4 JDM excellent performance and handling but nothing more, you have to be careful with a lot of things like dont shift from high rpm because the Gearbox are very sensitive,dont work the turbo too much because of the oil temp,dont push it so much at high rpms because the rods are sensitive e.t.c. and i am asking you "THEN WHY TO HAVE A FAST CAR LIKE THAT AND AFRAID TO DO WHAT YOU BOUGHT IT FOR???" because if you want to buy a WRX you are not going to buy it just for the name or to have a walk at the park.And besides after all isnt a real sport car(doesnt even have the look),is so cheap inside(interior) and it has so expensive parts.
Now,having the GT-4 i really feel that i`m driving a sports car i`m pushing it, it has excellent handling like the WRX,very nice interior and also exterior and its really a quality car that deserve all the money you spend on it.
So the point isnt who is going to win the race,but who is going to keep up with the race and stay in time.
I am very lucky own a Celica.

I like that thought:)

How do you guys feel about losing? A racer-enthusiast friend of mine challenged me to a race in the next two years. I accepted without knowing that it was all in it for fun. Later I found out that he's really dead serious. Knowing what car he's driving and his plans to hit 11s on his honda crx(89?). IMO I think he might be able to pull that off if he + team members highly tunes the car.

On the other hand, if he wins than it's cool. the problem is where he loses, things might get carried away and i don't want that. Has anyone ever been in this situation? any suggestions on how to handle this situation?
