ha as soon as you said nasioc it was obvious who won. the vid is awesome. We’ve all been reading about the new Evo and STi in magazines for months, and without one word in english that vid does a better job of comparing them. also, so much for the “amazing” clutchless manual everyone one has been raving about. although, if they were to put a bunch of amateur racers together, I bet that it would be an advantage, so maybe for the weekend warrior it would seem faster. ---

Cool video. I was going to comment on the starting positions at first, but the Subaru’s were so far ahead by the end, that it seems to have not mattered. I wonder if the USDM models compare similarly. ---

The evo IX would of caught up and passed the previous gen STI, but definately not the new one. The new evos are not so fast ---

its right hand drive and in japan. pretty sure its the 2.0 that revs to 8 grand. it is a amazing sound riding in a 2.0 boxer at over 7500 rpm. if only my little turbo pushed enough air at those rpms. ---
