Nice vid btw, too bad the Evos lost to the STi
the Evo lost to the Spec C, which isn't ur ordinary STi....and if u look at the fastest laptime, the 2nd place Evo still got ~0.3 sec faster...

nice video btw

That was the 2.0L STi with about 280hp and does not have 300hp like the 2.5L USDM car.

I will say that the MR wheels with a set of 245/40's vs the enkeis with the stock 235's. I noticed a big difference on how my car feels. Matter of fact i just took my mr wheels off the other day and put my enkeis back on(road trip) and the car felt sluggish to me

sweet video though.

good job ctninea. The whole vid was badass. Although I liked the race, I was impressed with the aluminum roof explanation. Power is cheap ('06 Shelby) but power AND weight reduction is not ('06 Z06). I think that's the true mark of performance. Who cares if the STI won...
