That's some weird mix of competitors there. They got supercars, and then they threw in a couple of muscle cars, then the luxury cars and some track cars...and then, well, the Subaru. I think you can't compare these fairly unless you consider something else besides straight line speed. Just my 0.02

Americans and their fascination with 0-60. Will never understand why that is considered the end all, be all.

You guys didn't hear about the main contest? They do a best driver's car contest and have all the cars driven around Laguna Seca by a pro race driver. Then they are ranked on driving ecperience.
The drag race is just a cool thing they do at the end. |

His little flag says he's Russian. I'm guessing that's where this "dumb Americans" comment is coming from.

And the cold war has been over for 20-plus years, many true "Americans" (outside of the actual Americans, the Native variety) still think the Russians are evil and whatnot.

Seemed implied by the comment, but no big deal.

I think my E92 is a super car, but that's not a list I would expect to find it on. LOL

The actual video I think was really just good entertainment. BRZ? Really? It's like inviting the slow kid from the block to play roller hockey cause your mom makes you. |

On the other hand I participated in my first track day with a group of pro touring muscle car guys. The majority of them didn't have ABS, traction control, or any other electronics to assist them... The paddock was also filled with full sized trailers, tools and people that actually know how to wrench on their car since most of them built their cars from the ground up in their garage. I know many of them began with drag racing, then auto x, and finally road courses... |
