RESULTS: 2008 Subaru STI faster than the Mitsubishi Evolution X


In Japan on the now famous Tsukuba circuit the Subi and the Mitsu battle it out. The drivers: Kazuo Shimizu and Manabu Kawaguchi.

Best times:
Subaru Impreza WRX STI : 1:05:95
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X : 1:06:46

"The new engine placed further forward in the engine bay of the EVO X than in the EVO IX has indeed proven to be a handicap, while the STI's "wheel at each corner" longer wheelbase plus new double wishbone rear suspension has proved its worth."
