Always being stuck inside a twinscroll powerd car, you forget what they sound like from the outside... and that sounded the nuts!

I've been twinscroll since 2005..... can't say I would consider moving back. You also get the bonus of NOT sounded like the "rest".

Personal taste though.

It wasn't supposed to be a review of the car just a review of the ring.

As already mentioned it wasnt about the Impreza it was about an experience at the Ring!.....If there was going to be a reveiw on the car then no doubt Tiff or Plato would of been in the drivers seat.

lol exactly... I've been round it several years on the trot on a 1000cc sports bikes (GSXR1000s) and it's astonishing what comes past you! Local guys buy clapped out and unlikely Ring type cars and just nail that track week after week... Ego's have to be left behind in the UK i think He isn't the greatest driver but 9m laps on his first visit is not bad at all.. Hoping to take my wagon there in a few months..

just watched it,it was a first time at the ring feature.To me it was enjoyable viewing car sounded fine to me.Was this the same car that was in Evo mag a few weeks ago?I saw it at Ian's a while ago,very nice indeed.Any excuse to call in there he always has something interesting to look over.

Just watched it now, thought it was a good feature for somebody like me that has never been but quite fancies it. Car sounded awesome... maybe twin scroll is the way to go on my hatch??

Glad I sky+ it tho, I have to fast forward through any part involving that squealing moose of a woman!

Point taken about locals knowing the ring and coming past in lesser cars,plus thinking about it he was probably on orders to return the spec c in one piece.Looks a bit of a free for all,but great fun.Will have to go soon.

How much does a day on the ring cost? And has anyone had to have their car fixed in Germany afterwards?!
