love the headline of 'sets Nurburgring record' - makes it sound like its the quickest car thats ever been round there

there was a thread about the video clip here - http://www.southeastscoobies.co.uk/v...ead.php?t=4932

An excellent watch!

Yes it is a great watch. It is the quickest SUBARU lap. I don't think they suggest it's the quickest lap compared with other makes.

Chosen a saloon yet, Roo?

Correct sir - they say in the text its the quickest lap managed by a Subaru. But the headline is cleverly written if you just glance at it

Nah waiting for the sedan Sti. Was gutted really when I first came over as the hatch Sti wasn't out for 4 months and I could afford the hire car for that long. Had to settle for the WRX.

selling the wagon though...

Has the Evo X posted a time round the ring. IX was 8.11 was it not.

Scoob got to 150mph but looking at the run I reckon theres a couple of seconds to come off it as there were a couple of mistakes...............

Not looking too shabby though.

I am glad I was not the only one that thought he left a bit out there. There were a few errors in there.

If Nige was in it, it would be different.
