yeah that farrari was def. going as fast as he could, a lot of exotic cars losses can be blamed on the total idiots who drive 95% of them though...

I agree the Ferrari was prolly trying... Since the most exotics have paddle shifting you would figure they arent too hard to drive in a straight line race on the highway. Most Ferrari's run mid-low and trap pretty high, if im not mistaken. That's why an evo taking a ferrari on the highway is a major compliment.

Mind if I ask what your Wrex dynoed at? (If you have dynoed it)

Farrari's still offer a good ol' 6 speed, as they should, so most? IDK maybe most, but who knows, I know if I got one it would have to be a 6 speed manual...

My car dynoed on a Mustang dyno which is one if not the lowest reading dyno on the market...not to justify the low numbers i dont really care. A stock wrx runs 160HP and TQ ont his dyno, which runs 5.4 0-60, 14.3ish in the 1/4. I ran a 12.6 something with 244 i think AWHP and 245 awtq. Now though with some new goodies Im looking to get over 300 to the wheels in tq and hp...but thats yet to be seen cause my car is still in a million pieces in my garage and is yet to be tuned. The guy I take my car to for tunes is actually a engineer for an American Grand-Pirx team...needless to say he is just awsome at tuning...

Cool. That guy in the Mitsu needs to quiet down, though, you could barely hear the cars over him yelling!

It's funny, it's hard to get an appreciation for how fast they are going or accelerating in videos. I guess that guy didn't buy a 360 Modena to accelerate fast, or at least he's telling himself that...

Until I get unlazy enough to look up some numbers, I have to believe that the Ferarri missed a shift. But now that I think about it, Evos can be tuned up to high heaven so I guess anything's possible.
