I was driving home and a Blue WRX turned left behind me and started following me. We got to a red light and went when it turned green. He slightly jumped but then I walked away from him right away (I got a perfect launch - no wheel spin). Went up to approx 75 mph and it was all over. Atleast 5 car lengths.

A simple question unrelated to this topic: The company I work for is owned by 2 brothers. The older brother has a 2001 Porsche Turbo with a different exhaust system (not sure what kind) and the younger brother just bought a 2002 Viper RT/10. I'm sure the Porsche is faster top end, but if they went from a slow roll, do you think the Viper could keep up? No question from a dead stop the Porsche would out-launch the Viper due to the AWD. But don't they trap about the same in the 1/4? 117-120mph?

Anyways, I can't wait to get my Supercharger installed so I can show them both some LX taillights!!!!!
