I'm glad I didn't drive to Sandy. I would have been pissed.

So basically it is the Slowest STi in the US

 

It was still cool to see the rear suspension set up, and a few other things that they've done. There was also a bad-*** cwest sti down there, it was sooo bad that it's license plate said; 1siksti. I was scared!!!

 

pic works for me :P

Here is some in-car video footage of IVR this weekend.

I only had enough space to upload 1 lap. This was from the first run group, I wasn't ubber-fast at that point but the footage is kinda cool.

You can play it with windows media player or save it to your computer for anytime action.

Jared,

Are you still running your Yakima rack on your Evo? Do you remember the clip #'s? I think the yakima website states Q102 rear and 83 for the front.

Thanks.

 

I only put it on when I go snowboarding. I'm sure the numbers from the web are correct. But I'll go check...

I couldn't find the numbers. The rack worked ok. It did leave a few marks above the door from the clips rubbing a little. But I was in a hurry both times I put it on. If I would have taken my time I don't think it would be a problem.

I noticed that Jake installed his front bar at a greater distance from the windshield than I did. I think this helps the clip make a better fit. But I have a fairing and I wanted it to seal against the window/roof edge.

 

Thanks for the info. I bought a trunk rack to transport my bikes but I was not really happy with it so, I am going back to the Yakima car top rack. Just need to get some clips.

 

what brand was the trunk rack?
i was thinking of getting one. i should know which to steer clear of

 

I got a Hollywood Baja which came highly recommended by cyclists I checked with. It is a good rack, it held the bike securely and had no real issues. I just came from using a Yakima roof top rack on my previous car and I have had one on my wifes Jetta and now her new Murano and I think they work better (ie, bikes are more secure and theyare lockable).

 

I used to carry around 150 pounds worth of downhill bikes on my Subaru with the Yakima setup. It's solid.

What did you sucka's think of the in-car video?

 

Stop talking about gay bike racks and crap.!!!!

 

Were you hitting the top of fourth????

 

Kinda.

I didn't bounce it off the Rev-Limiter, but I got pretty deep into forth gear before I hit the brakes. The video was from my "slow" first session. The second session I stayed into the gas WAY deeper through the little chicane after the straight. I picked up alot of time there.

 

That is why I like them.

I will check out the video when I get home
