Interesting...

188 mph does seem very high for a 10 second car, not saying it's not possible though, but it would indicate that the the car has the potential to run much quicker if it is true.

I also hate to break it to you but a ¼ mile time is subject to far more things than engine power and car….ie weight, reaction time, gear ratios, conditions, clutch powerband, traction and so forth.

If you are writing a letter to try and point out a problem to people like this it is best to not add more things for them to pick on you about eg. reaction time does not have any bearing on your time or mph at the drags (not sure if it does in "heads-up racing" but that's not what we are talking about). Clutch powerband? WTF?? I will assume a comma was meant to go between the two.

I also hope you sent them a better, edited version without the SMS slang:

Rumour has it that Speed is no longer anyway so if that is true you probably won't get a response Crying or Very Sad

I wouldn't worry too much, no one I know with a WRX has busted a box and my mates treat them like paddock bashers, flat changing, clutch dumping launches etc, they have had them for years too.

We know not to believe everything we read, those who do don't deserve a GT4 anyway Wink
