          too bad we can't hear that sweet boxer engine instead of that really crappy music.
          good video though.

            haha, I just made the subaru engine noise with my mouth, then looked around my classroom to see if anyone noticed. They didn't.

              Nice road! Pavement quality didn't look all that consistent, but your buddy looks like a talented rider.

                  yeah the camera was on "sport mode" and the engine/exhaust wasn't loud enough, all you can hear on the raw video is tires squealing and rocks hitting the underside of the car. Next time. Music wasn't my choice.

                    I have a XR650 and Ive driven plenty of WRX's and honestly its hard to say which pulls harder. I have a hard time keeping the front wheel on the ground of my XR.

                      the bike pulls a little bit harder. but just barely. On many corners it's easier to carry more speed in the car, but in the really tight stuff, the bike wins: it's just very light. I faded my brakes going up hill trying to catch up 2/3 of the way up.

                          I really like the sound track you have on that. Who is it?

                          A little throttle and ease out the clutch.
