I agree. The STi is too much for ESP. Granted it's not overly competative, but just looking at the STi vs. WRX aspect, you can tell it's too fast.

IMO the "flavor" of ESP is "pony car". And while I will agree that the STi is a next generation muscle car, it's not a big, loud, heavy, RWD car that the class was intended for.

I'm not really sure where the STi belongs. It's too fast for BS, and not quite an AS car. It gets owned by the STU pax. It's a pax killer coming from ESP. To be honest, the best class for the STi is Street Mod. So, everyone needs to make their STi's into 400hp SM cars and go up against the M3's!
