That video makes my stomach hurt. I would never ride in a car again if I that was me, then again, I'd never do anything that stupid.

Good find Gill, hope all is well.

most STis with that much hp have trouble hitting 11s (driver) whereas a stock turbo STi with bolt ons has ran an 11.7 before, pretty funny

The story behind this car from when I saw the video and nasioc a while back is it was on the low boost setting. The kid bought the car off of someone with all the mods already done to it. He obviously didn't know what he was doing. Even the former owner chimed and and had a chuckle but confirmed he was on low boost

The brim of the hat must have caused the extra drag-- otherwise I'm sure it would have been in the 10's

that happened one time ever and has never been duplicated.

And it was done at a supposed 113MPH with a pedestrian 1.7x 60'

What an idiot lol He was probably on pump gas, no helmet and with his boy riding shotgun... the look on his face priceless!

500WHP (Well 507 on a dynojet) got me high 10's which to me is pretty good considering the ****ty gearing and the mods I have. But is true most people with these cars can't drive worth a damn!

im actually good friends with sean and have some of his parts on my car as well as the same setup as him as well as the same tuner it wasnt a miracle he could have done better but he got his license taken away a little while later because unfortunately he does not always race on the track...

if you want to see the timeslips or videos or official thread the tuner made just ask and ill post them up

im not a fanboi im actually an evo fanboi but it DID happen and it wasnt on accident, thats all I'm saying
