The video keeps pausing for me, have you got a non-streamed version I can download and then watch?

its a shame the microphone was shaken loose half way through - ruins the clip somewhat - I was enjoying the tyre noise too no ABS so you can hear the lockup before every corner.
Can any seasoned nordschleife folks comment on the 8:06 time? - I presume 23 seconds has to be added to this to get an 'official' time? - what about the standing start?

Makes you wonder how much quicker it might be with ATD fitted.

Is that Spec C a 16" or 17" version? Cos the 17" version comes with ABS, whereas the 16" version has Subaru branded 4-pot brakes.
They just had a Spec C Limited released in Japan, it is a limited ed with additional equipment such as a/c, elec windows, central locking, electric mirrors. I think it can be said as a 'touring' version of the Spec C. It is sth like 20kgs heavier than the Spec C.

Damn fast at 8m06.59s! Could this be the testing done by Subaru since the time is exactly the same as here: http://www.subaru-global.com/lineup/...me_record.html
?
They mention a Japanese prototype which could be different to the road going version. The suspension looks very firm in the video.
