The STi had the fastest lap. The other cars looked bigger and probably heavier. Top end on the Nissan was a lot better than the STi.

Nice. If only it started closer to the Nissan, it might have won. Good work Subaru.

The m45 is a beast. fuga = m45 for those who do not know. If it was a more prolonged race the legacy would win of course. Hehe, I mean the m45 weighs 4000 ibs... Brakes and tires have their limits

Well, if that's a M45, and there's a Lexus and a Jag, obviously the Legacy is 2L short in displacement vs the other cars. Whether the other cars weigh more or not, that's going to make a huge difference on the straight line speed.

It looked slow because the car is slow. In straight line vs those motors the Legacy would obviously lose, however being more nimble, having a sport tuned suspension, better brakes, etc allowed it to overtake on the corners.
