Video of 11.2 1/4 and our Rally Car!

**Gruppe-S** · 06-23-2006, 12:48 PM

Hey all,

We thought we'd try our hand at making a couple videos to commemorate some recent achievements. Obviously we're not pros but the videos are kind of cool to have (and pretty darn funny

).

The first one is of Mark's STi

The second one is of the Rally Car we sponsor

Comments are welcome; especially ones about the closeup of the spinning turbo, haha.

Thanks,

Gruppe-S

i don't know much about rally stuff so do you mind if i ask what the vents are for?

i'm guessing ditched the a/c and didn't want to get pelted with stones so... for cooling the occupants?

Yes they are for cooling. It gets hot in there sometimes with the windows up and no ac. But ive never seen 2 on a car... Guess its really hot there :P

Did you see the cliff???? neway

i think it has to be stock engine for that rally class, all i know is that thing is loud as hell in person so i figure it's probably just catless with a tune(don't know for sure)

**Gruppe-S** · 06-26-2006, 01:40 PM

Racing cars get incredibly hot inside them. There is no AC or insulation of any type and the motor is being run hard all the the time. One vent is for the driver, the other is for the co-driver. Touring car drivers have been known to lose 15 lbs. of sweat over the course of a 2.5 hr. race; they're often put on IV right after the race.

The rally car might look like it's going slow but it's definitely not. I'd guess you've never tried rallying before? The motor is completely stock and the car is only tuned w/ a catless exhaust. It also runs air restrictors. It's actually pretty odd how when you watch an in-car video, it always looks slow. The only cars I've seen that look fast from the inside are WRC and F1 cars.
