Good video. The best line is "The only thing you gotta remember about an Evo is that to get the best out of it, you have to go beyond the line where bravery becomes insanity.....shall I turn into this hairpin bend at 100mph? Why not?"

with Timzcat, just give it a while, too many people are trying access it at the same time, thats all.
there is like 300 users on evom right now, I guess large % is trying to download that vid.

Another Top Gear video. This time, instead of Stig taking each car on their test track, they have Jeremy Clarkson driving the cars AND they throw an Audi into the mix as well. Sorry no test track this time.

BTW, that guy is a really good driver.

for those who can't view the avi files .. it's because it's coded in divx .. go http://www.divxmovies.com/codec/ to download the latest codec to view .. it's worth the hassle !

Summary: they did a comparo with the UK STI PPP (an EJ20 with upgraded bits to 305 bhp) and an Evo 8 FQ-300 or FQ-330.... in other words, it's not the standard Evo 8 GSR... however, I'm still surprised at the awesome launch, it wasn't even a contest....
