    In no way do I condone or support street racing, but in my search for exhaust bits today, I came across this and thought Nate and Bill would appreciate it:

    Yeah, I don't even read those because I feel stupidr if I do. I like how the Skyline driver chuckles like "this is going to be a joke" and then can't believe the Forester pulls away from him.

    I think you're right... Watch the top gauge (black with white gauge). Assuming this is his boost, it doesn't spike until he's behind.

    Neither did the Forester ...

    It was a frumrol.

    That being said it looks as though the Skyline was just cruising and the Forester came up on him. Notice the Skyline never downshifted, would have prolly been a closer race had the Skyline downshifted is all.

    Depending on how stock the r32 is, those results wouldn't be impossible to achive, I've gotten to play around with a stock 91 r32, and my car when it was stage 2 would pull right with it.

    Did the guy in the R32 have enough gauges? I think he was only missing a wall clock.

    The comments on youtube for that video made me stupider. How can some people live with themselves? (especially that ganstarin guy) although there was one kinda of useful comment that the FXT is only ~150lbs heavier than a WRX.

    Looks to me that he was in a higher gear then he should've been. Took a loooong while for his boost to spool.
