Default STi vs Jeep SRt8 > short vid.

Liked the way the STi revved-up (spooled) (little - bog) ...short ..but Subie had to slow down. {Video was new to me}...

Check it out:

If that sti reached third gear and ran it out he would of had no problem but car was in front. Seemed like a busy street to be racing on?

Very busy streets, but nonetheless that Jeep is a beast. No doubt the STi would pull like crazy if they kept racing.

Here is the continued version: same two Drivers.
I think the Jeep would take the Subie after "90" with it"s "420" hp.
Dangerous on that street!

I wonder what country this took place in, and what "spec" the car is? Note the side markers and the funny license plate.
