How fast have you driven in your WRX.........in reverse???
Thought this might be a fun thread.
Personally for me, probably like 15mph. Granted you shouldn't really be looking at your speedo when driving in reverse! Edit: NOTE: OP is not responsible for your stupidity should you try to break the land speed record in your car in reverse and kill the car/yourself in the process.

I think I read somewhere the average Reverse Gear can do up to like 45mph from a stop. That seems crazy fast for 1 gear, not to mention going backwards.

you guys do realize you can have a second person in the car to look at the speedo, right?
