Tin_pusher Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Any thoughts on what kind of weight the AT/Turbo will be able to pull? I'm guessing around 1,500lbs? I have a motorcycle and trailer that I take to the track, so I'm hoping this will not be a concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBY Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 The WRX is rated to tow 2000 lbs, my local dealership proudly displays a photo of a Wagon towing 2 jet-skis plus gear. I think the Leagcy will be better for towing, more low down torque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Zevil Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 check the specs for the turbo forester. that should give you a pretty good idea of what this thing can tow. Just looked it up. It's 2400 with the manual, 2000 with the auto. I think that should give you a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUBE555 Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 The foreign numbers are always higher than US Specs. It really shows they need a bigger vehicle in the lineup for a 4000+lb cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tide Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 What bike do you take to the track? I have a Yamaha FZ-1 and the roommate has a Yamaha R-6 and a Honda 400 which he's going to race in AMA this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin_pusher Posted January 20, 2004 Author Share Posted January 20, 2004 2003 Yamaha R6, I race at Portland International Raceway. It's expensive, but it's the only place you can really use the bike the way it's meant to be used. Nothing like hitting 155+ on the back straight!

Tide Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 You can attach, there are just size restrictions (160k). I've been to Thunderhill on my bike, lots of fun. I dont want to race bikes though like my roommate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin_pusher Posted January 20, 2004 Author Share Posted January 20, 2004 Yeah, I want to go to Thunderhill one day. I don't want to "race" per se. But some spirited competition while I'm at the track is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
