2011 Subaru WRX STI Nürburgring R&D project - lap time 7:55
The project consisted of an attempt to beat the latest best lap time recorded in 2004 on the Nordschleife with a previous Impreza WRX STI test version. The vehicle used for the 2010 challenge was a test version of the new 2011MY WRX STI 4-door (sedan), the model unveiled on April 1st at New York motor show as “The Fastest WRX STI Ever”. Major enhancements to the vehicle centered on improved overall dynamics -on chassis and suspension in particular. The test car also featured various items from the R205 and Spec C special-editions road versions available in Japan.

Nice, and the track conditions weren't exactly ideal either! Love Tommis "across the line drift" on the grass 
Would be interesting to hear comments in which ways Tommys driving tecniuque with STI differs from a tarmac track driver driving something like 911. (on nurburgring)
