Not only is the lightness of the car overexaggerated, but a 0-150MPH time of only 10 seconds?

Seriously... If that car really weighed 1700lbs and had 700hp which it obviously does not, it would have traction problems and easily spin tires in the higher gears. I feel it should also post a better 0-60 than a near stock MKIV Supra.
What are people like this for anyway? I tried an online ET calculator and it said a 1/4 trap time w/ that weight and power (little off cuz it wanted WHP) should be around 8 seconds @ greater than 170mph. If this were true, this dude would be famous/dead.

I'm gonna go ahead and say its a joke.....
First off they said 700+ RWHP, did i-speed convert their sti to rwd? Second off, look how jerky the camera is, they just used the "speed up" effect on windows movie maker, trust me, I've used it before to make it look like I hit someone

if i saw that man driving on the road i would immediately call the cops if not run him off myself
he gives all subaru owners a bad name
when you see people driving like this with traffic just imagine what if one of your family members was one of the innocent people driving on those roads and this idiot plows into one of them when they change lanes before he can see them
