The weather looks a bit

Not the walkover you'd expect from the AWD.

BTW the OEM Yokohamas on the Evo are dreadful in the wet

[MrFlibbles]

Crazy japanese!

[ApexClipper]

I'd have put money on the EVO every time without having seen the vid!

Quite a revelation there



Oh, and as for those Japs - utterly but big from me!!

In all fairness, Orido, Tsuchiya and Wakisawa are all three of them nutters.

[rsvmilly]

Yep. Those Best Motoring 'battles' are great. I have quite a few of them on my HD

All three cars have trouble putting the power down, the supe takes an early lead followed by the evo then the rx7 after the first lap evo has abs/braking problems and nearly comes off leaving it in third place while the supra and rx7 continue to battle it out then a little later the evo complety spins out later followed by the rx7 loosing it. Then the race is canceled

have you seen the clip of the white evo vs the white S15? The evo takes a nice efficient line, and the S15 is drifting around the bends.. Its was only after a bit of over-enthusiastic drifting that the evo got past... A great peice of driving!

Tsuchiya is a god of driving without a doubt ive got quite a few hot version DVD's and him with orido and wakisaka are absolutely brilliant drivers, its where i learnt to heel and toe from!!!

DORIFTO KINGO!!!

[Dakkon]

Cute chic at the end though
