I would think i would be able to drive my car that i am used to better than some car and driver tester, just because i am more used to my tranny and clutch and etc....

Whats a pro? I understand what you are saying.

Manual or Auto? What elevation? Temp? Not all the drivers that test them are pros?

But lots of guys are running high 13's and low 14's and the car is supposed to run 13.1 stock
I was thinking that too...probably has more to do w/ bad drivers than anything. Could also have something to do w/ air temp, elevation, barometric pressure, etc...

well i spose sti's have what 235 hp to the wheels stock?
Depends on about a million different factors....Inertia vs. Roller Dyno, Altitude, Temperature, etc, etc, etc....

Dyno #'s really don't mean shit when you think about it, all dynos are really good for is tuning your car, the numbers they spit are worthless IMHO.

Excellent driver. I've raced him before, won, but very good sport about it. There is a taller kid from Grand Forks who didn't pull very great times with a Black STI. But it's his first manual transmission car ever, and is very new to the car. I remember at the car show in Grand Forks way back, he asked me how to open the hood of his car.....shrug we all got to start somewhere right?
