SURE IS, makes you want to reconsider all your body panels, and switch to painted carbon fiber. Hmm.

About the WRC sti... in that video... the guy said the clutch is small because they only use it at the start. And in the video, it shows him never switching gears... Is the WRC sti design in a way to have automatic gearing changes always at the highest rpm point?

if you watch his hands closely he is changing the gears with the paddle shifters by the steering wheel

Now I see why Amuse exhausts are so much!

I also got to see that Pikes Peak Z at a local Nissan dealer being worked on before the race. Cool car.
