this is why i love time attack! its like group b rallying but for the track! love it! RCM impreza is the best impreza ever built that didnt involve colin mcrae.
omg this car is a fking moster dude !!!!!!!!!nicccccccccceeeeeeeeee driving i mean full throttle out of the corner drifting like hell and this kind of car controll.........unbelievable !!! respekt
The set-up, balance and driver ability are key. The Gobstopper has it all. I've seen a Mustang out-corner a GT-R R33 at Snetterton during a track day. The power of each was similiar but the Ford was set up better. A shorter gearset and stiffer dampers did the trick. Comparison is the point, anyone who says "My Chevy can screw that ricer" or visa-versa is an ignorant tit. The only thing that counts is the timing beam. The Gobstopper was/is a true legend in the tuner community, it always will be.
850 hp in a well working Scooby is really good, but I'd like to know at what boost and what fuel he has going in it, if any know? (It wasn't listed on the website). Very impressive how they developed so much of the car themselves.
You also forget that in general, superchargers are a bit heavier, and take up more space, than an "equivalent" turbo. And the lag on a turbo can be almost completely negated by using certain techniques (heel-toe shifting is a very good example, as you don't need to engine to actually push the car to generate boost, you only need ti to keep spinning) The only problem is that, both of these forced induction methods can upset the balance of the car, which is WAY more important than just power
Thank god for time attack "oh they have too much power and just spin the wheels" who the fuck cares...this rallying and drifting are the most thrilling motor sports by far (well for me)
@xUSAZx Same here but if you put a muscle car in a time attack it wont do as good as the AWD cars. Some muscle cars just has too much torque and power it just doesn't have traction.
@carveriscool this is why the best drivers wont pick around 800hp for their street racing track car. imo the best range for power is 300-350hp with torque to match on street tires. just going 800hp with a million pounds of torque wont do you any good if your slippery slidy all over the track.
I don't know much about cars really, but i am curious why do people use turbos way more than super chargers? If someone could explain i would appreciate it.
@navy0vette most cars even a subaru are a box full of compromises. if you really want to go fast buy a ultima gtr kit, or a radical sr8 kit. and get ready to shit on everyone and if you can drive it. and there are ceartin super cara that cant be approached by modifying a sedan like a mclaren f1 gtr for example its near as possible to no compromise.
@cmdrep328 someone needs to reads comments properly and recognize sarcasm.... dont try and act like I know what I'm talking about? I was a service mechanic for subaru back when the GC8's first hit the scene :I nice one bud... good comment... no, really...
"as long as there aren't too many hairpins" Sorry, but if your car has "no compromises", it will take hairpins faster too. "No compromises" doesn't exist, building cars is all about tradeoffs. Still, I won't brag about a tuned car taking on an Ultima GT-R, as I haven't see it, but something tells me it's not as impossible as you make it seem. Remember, when you modify a car, you can modiify EVERYTHING, not just what they allow you to change in games
I'd never get tired of the looks, power, noise and sequential box.. dream machine!
i teach at thunderhill raceway and this is the best driving i have seen on youtube in a car video,
Oh god i love it when they do it with real japanese power!!
RJD2 + one of the best gc8's EVER = Amazing
This is the best looking Subaru Impreza model for me.
Amazing! Roger Clark knows how to build cars. Scoobys rule all over the world :D

The almighty Gobstopper
Devil´s car, brutal!!!

precioso video
that car is a fucking monster
SOUNDS LIKE MY SUBARU ON NEED FOR SPEED SHIFT

wrecked it with the music
@samwisethree I agree 100%. I couldn't have said it better myself.
@jahsunz watch till the end? half the vid is without music....
@StephanRu88 Its Snetterton, in the UK
Thank god for time attack "oh they have too much power and just spin the wheels" who the fuck cares...this rallying and drifting are the most thrilling motor sports by far (well for me)
what a grip ! ;o I want setup of this car, I want to put it in my Forza 3 Subaru ^^
@xUSAZx Same here but if you put a muscle car in a time attack it wont do as good as the AWD cars. Some muscle cars just has too much torque and power it just doesn't have traction.
DAAAAM!! AND I THOUGHT I WAS THE SHIT WITH MY 10.5 SEC STI
da Gobstopper!!
@BloodyFingerz Yeah, I dont own a 2-door GC8. Technically its a GM but GC body style.
@carveriscool this is why the best drivers wont pick around 800hp for their street racing track car. imo the best range for power is 300-350hp with torque to match on street tires. just going 800hp with a million pounds of torque wont do you any good if your slippery slidy all over the track.
thats me driving !!!
sounds more like airplanes going full speed
I don't know much about cars really, but i am curious why do people use turbos way more than super chargers? If someone could explain i would appreciate it.
@navy0vette you got the point here ;)
just picked up a 98 gc8 2 door sti, all modded. my 4th rexa and this ones fq.
id trade not one, but both nuts for that car
You should make a hour or so long video to post on RUclips and we could rent it with that RUclips Rental thing.
@Gin132456 What are you talking about? All I'm saying is that the AWD Subaru will beat a RWD Mustang around a time attack course.
he destroys all he flys by everyone :D
That's a great!

@Nightmaresins
Since We Last Spoke
how do you extract 850 horses, usable horses..how bad is the turbo lag?
Does someone know the name of the soundtrack in this video?!
@XxEM0grAndm4xX I'm writing it so that they stop giving him thumbs up because racing is hard drag race is only in the car

rjd2 - since we last spoke
@ypsifrog laguna seca?
Reversed scoop on the impreza ;)
Check out what Stephane and the team can do, search clashproduction in your search engine
SUBARU IMPREZA TURBO???
NO, IT'S THE GOBSTOPPER!!!
@BloodyFingerz LMFAO, I dont have a car? Oh mmk. Whatever you say dude.
and the song is?
Any jap car made between 1960-2000 was limited to 280 PS (around 300 horses) in STOCK form.
But if you think this car is stock, you're blind man...
@cmdrep328 someone needs to reads comments properly and recognize sarcasm.... dont try and act like I know what I'm talking about? I was a service mechanic for subaru back when the GC8's first hit the scene :I nice one bud... good comment... no, really...
2 beast on 0:08 =)
Fuck porsche or ferrari i want a SUBARU
whats under the hood
Wish that came in 2 door still...
hey lets put a muscle car on this track and see how its gonna dominate :)
What song is this?
ok I'd trade my 2004 sti and everything else to own that subaru.
