Seriously, man, please don't live up to your name as "kid." This topic has been beaten to death, and who cares what some guy at a "show" says? Why would you even be at a show anyway if you care about performance? Also, when someone says the Evo handles like a go-kart, that's a COMPLIMENT. Did you think it was bad? Have you ever driven a fast go-kart and felt how nimble it is?

You also didn't even say what kind of race. Do you think there is just some random 'race' in the ether of the Internet that cars participate in? Weird...

Every single test I have seen EVO IX vs STI Evo always wins.., I have seen 3 topgear tests videos, Then the edmunds article, and one of the off shelf magazines... I have seen only one magazine say the STI was better forgot which, but it was also off shelf. They always say same thing EVO interior sucks, but its performance is topnotch..
