1. STi didnt launch. Not taht it would change anything, but he would have taken a while to pull the 2 cars the STi would have had by 2nd gear.

2. A C55 goes for atleast 50grand.

I dare that guy to throw in a couple turns. He looks like the type that just jumps in and mashes the pedal and is a "fast driver". The STi actually held up pretty well w/o launching.

one of the worst starts i've seen and very slow shifting. up to 80mph, sti is 2 car lengths ahead. that fat guy is hilarious though...it sounds like he bought the car just to see if he could beat an sti. tell him to follow you in the mountains!!! AWD FTW

Sti should've beat him to 80. But that c55 is a top end breather. It wouldnt stand a chance on private roads, but the Sti wouldnt stand a chance on the highway or a road like they were just racing on. and its not supercharged at all. Its NA.

Exactly .....The STi is "built" for "quickness"> { Launching} 0-100.....the land cruiser (AMG c55) is built for just that top end....60-140...why play to someone else's advantage with "expected" results? Fat boy would be "crying" and ready to trade his car in if the ball was in the other corner > Racing from dead stop)......
