I kind of knew that IS-F would be last, but didn't think the EVO X would be 1st.

DAMN!!!!! I think I just lost a lot of faith and respect for the ISF. It got worked . The heavy luxury facet of the vehicle will never make it as hardcore or balanced as a car like the NSXR. Sorry Lexus but your car needs a crash diet
I was also a little disapointed by the massive understeer in the WRX spec C.

ESPECIALLY comparing it to a NSX-R. We might as well throw the LFA in where it will make them all look like they are standing still.Agreed, don't spoil!

Unless the track was more suited for a awd turbo car I would still expect the IS-F to due well against a EVO and STi. I would not expect a EVO to be able to beat a NSX-R either.

I could not get the video to play but I still would expect the IS-F to possibly beat a EVO, STi, and certainly beat a Nismo 370Z at a track. I would expect the IS-F to destroy a 370Z as the Nismo model was not really any faster then a stock 370 in a recent comparison and they reported it felt bigger and heavier when pushed.

Anyone notice the IS-F had "Tom's" parts? I wonder did it actually hurt performance vs stock? Not sure.

The EVO/STi are AWD turbo monsters. The 350Z Nismo is a seater that weighs 400lbs less.
I suggest looking up some performance stats on these cars.
Results since the spoiler is out
Overall Race
1. Mitusubishi EVO X Ralliart
2. WRX Sti Spec C
3. NSX-R
4. Nismo 350Z
5. IS-F
Best laps
1. 106.125- EVO
2. 106.606 NSX-R
3. 106.671 Nismo 350Z
4. 106.896 Sti
5. 108.296 IS-F
The results show how amazing the EVO is. It also shows the IS-F is butt heavy and out of its range here unless it had an incredible driver.
Someone correct me if I am wrong please but doesn't the EVO Ralliart in Japan have 400hp?
Overall it was a LOVELY video, I really enjoyed it. My notes
1. IS-F is clearly so much more refined and the V-8 sounds mute
2. The NSX-R sound GLORIOUS when on the throttle, love it!
3. The EVO continues to show it is still one of the best performance cars for the money.
