Nice one budgie....Loved the expression on your face when you were doing the slalom

Both cars looked good,but a bit one sided as the evo was a stripped out sprint car and you should have had an extra point on the quiz for being so **** about the last question

It was a good read, but as Chris pointed out, it was a tad one sided.

Nice car Peter!

Does demonstrate just how much weight can adversely affect performance.

BUT comparing a stripped out lightweight with a fully kitted out car is a bit unfair. Overall, I think your car gave an excellent account of itself.

The difference on the road is that the poor chap in the Evo got to go home in a car with all the refinement of being stuck in the drum of a washing machine, and you got to go home in comfort.

Kudos to the MLR for the win though!

Car looks great Peter, noticed the guys on MLR going on about this but as everyone said it was a bit one sided.

I think it would of been a different story of it was an RA with 400bhp vs their Evo V RS.

Good effort though.

Why do people seem to test Subarus up against Evos that on paper are faster and in this case was. They do it on TV like Mondays 5th Gear program.
