i shifted ONCE… he shifted like 3 times… i dont understand how thats possible…ESPECIALLY with the sti’s short gearing. im waiting to see the video posted on youtube/streetfire. andy, you were right about him tryin to jump on the 2nd beep too. the evo isnt slow by any means, but i think with a stronger clutch and a 3" catback for me, it would have been really disappointing for him.

no this one is the only run travis would do. we ran one other time but i think the might have missed a gear, or clutch slipped. either way it wasn’t worth keeping so i deleted it.

150mph at the top of 5th for me was more than enough… i went to 7k in 5th and hit the brakes (148mph or so)… thats when you see the evo go by me.

i will go again, but i see no need to go into 6th… by 150mph its more aerodynamics than power anyways… and we all know the sti had the aero of a flying brick.

yeah… 1st “attempted” run last night i matted the gas in 4th and the clutch just laughed at me and let loose… the run u see on video it was straining and slipping slightly still but held up enough for the win… id ride with ya and film no doubt.
