EVO X Test On a Closed track part DEUX!!!

This time they test the SST version. Looks to be pretty promising. I like how it sounds when it downshifts by itself, almost sounds like it rev matches.

Looks like they're done tweaking the SST version. Ready for release in NOV in Japan. Nice find.

The downshift rev matching sounds very good and quick. I'm almost sold on this new SST trans. Just need to test drive one now if the dealers will even allow it.

it also looks like the car doesn't have much understeer at all, if anything it looks like it's pretty easy to oversteer if needed.
