Lol mishifts at 1:34, you don't need 2nd gear on this track, and that ending was epic, lol

That's surprising, i would of thought that the M5 would be quicker

Sweet it's Tommi!

Guess this is what he's been upto since retiring from WRC

Berzerker 06-08-2010 09:41 PM

The car seems to have endless power no matter where the rpm range and steering angle.

thumper 06-09-2010 06:01 AM

I don't follow WRC that well anymore (so hardcore members please don't hurt me!), but did Tommi used to drive for Mitsubishi, or for Subaru back in the day? :confused:

But it won't sound exotic since they dropped the V10 motor:(

Heavy_user 06-09-2010 03:03 PM

2011 STI actually looks pretty good! Awesome driving from Tommi Makinen

RabidRat 06-09-2010 04:24 PM

shit.. can you imagine how fast the lap would've been if he hadn't fucked up twice? he missed a shift and then he slid at the end lol

VK79 06-09-2010 04:59 PM

Very nice. Gonna see how the Sub Cad specs/price it. Might be time for an upgrade :)

optiblue 06-10-2010 08:29 PM

nice~ that'd be sweet if it were the production model! It looks like a 350 - 400hp version

cococly 06-10-2010 08:41 PM
