Thats bad alright.. the wrx sounds good.


Sounds like the flatulating pig that it is, IMHO.

Not to say they aren't quick, just that I despise the way their 4-cylinders sound (until you start ringing on them, but this guy in the video never really did) The flat 6's though are pretty nice. Amazing what a couple of cylinders can do.

This also goes for the VW/Porsche flat 4's, the 6's sang, the 4's farted along until you mashed the gas.

Rasta, I was going to post that video after I saw it on http://www.coldtrackdays.com Didn't seem to have too much trouble with the narrow lane there, did he? LOL

I don't think I'd have the balls to spectate right at the side of the course like that

I can't see a problem with that 911's driving. Are you all 'Driving Miss Daisy' types or what. He can see past the apex when he decides to cross the double yellows. Just a spirited drive in the hills, good on him.

If he was driving like this then I would understand your issues

I agree with all the other bike riders and car enthusiasts too. Keep it in the lines or take it on the track before someone gets hurt. They were not driving that fast anyway.
