It takes a rare breed or racing driver to turn a good lap time in an STI. This years lightning lap is all screwed up due to their test driver selection. Hopefully Motortrend will go back to Laguna Secca for is best drivers car with their same test driver as last year, I liked that driver and his onions. He felt like the ZR-1 was trying to kill him.

Here part 2 of STI vs EVO on Top Gear
Why couldn't the Stig "master" the Evo X and race it against Clarkson then? Kind of ironic that was also "due to the sucky driver." Lol, I get your point though. I just found it interesting, but I frankly care-a-less what these magazines testers get on any run with any vehicle lol.
