Oh man, today was my first drive in the rain. I've never had so much fun in my life... and I know all the people on the freeway, that I was flying by, were eating their hearts out wishing they had AWD. :devil:

...and I got to use my Subaru "Love" umbrella for the first time as well.

haha, nice, I remember when I used to drive a FWD, heavy rain felt so scary.

In b4 the flammenwaffen!

i wish i had AWD

 

[kaiba]

I wish it would rain.

 

[mrpersonality]

my 4eat awd is a bit fwd heavy... but there's a mod for that

ps: please don't fly by people on the highway in a dickish sort of manner, it give's those of us that drive like grannies a bad name

 

[aikencolon]

I was totally polite, asking may I please pass and all.

AWD doesn't help you when you hydroplane lol

 

[aikencolon]

I should have thought before posting this.... 65mph does appear to be "flying" when AZ drivers are freaking out about something they've never seen before... RAIN.

remember, awd wont keep you from not stopping.

 

[AWDkid]

Hmmm how do you have a sti already but have not drove in the rain

 

[MosquitoXR13]

I think he is saying this is his first time in the SUBARU in the rain.

Oh yeah, and what everybody else said: AWD does not help you stop... unless you downshift! Then it helps a little.

Like these guys said, just remember that the AWD doesn't make you a god on the road. It's nice to feel the superiority on the road where others cars have to slow down and you actually can speed up... just be careful

On that fact, i love making 180 turns in the rain :mamoru:

:unamused: @ Op

Evidently your 36-40k car didn't come with even a modicum of maturity

 

[GDnotCOOL]

So how long till that pretty new STi is a pole?

 

[Spatizzle]

you guys are brutal, is it necessary to have to bash OP so hard? Instead of saying "harharhar you gon' crash s0n!", shouldn't we just precaution him about safety? I understand we're not his parents or guardians, but I think I'm safe in saying that it should be known to him that we want Subaru to be a good community and have good reputation, so don't dick around.

jeez.

 

[pho_shizzle]

Yea its fun, just be careful.

Dude calm down. :jerkit: He made a thread saying he was passing people going faster then them/flying by them in his 1st time driving in rain. Also with a brand new STI. We are just warning him

OP nice STI tho

 

[Spatizzle]

I'm not getting upset by it, I guess I just don't share in the humor. I didn't mean to bash the people I was talking too either...


meh

This is a car forum, Its just car forum BS'ing. Nothing negative meant. keep your hypersensitive butt hurt away! No difference here, then some guys talking and chilling in a parking lot.

Nice car OP, be careful, don't become a statistic.
