Placing a record on the track is a big deal, and this team with the Subaru has done it. Their home built Subaru is so fast that it broke the old record, setting a new one, 8.48 seconds at 168.35 miles per hour.

This is an amazing achievement, because the car still uses the factory 6 speed transmission. The driver has shown some extraordinary skills on the track, because launching this kind of powerful Subaru can mean trouble, big trouble at the start. We have seen earlier some Subaru’s crashing at the start of the race, not even making in the first twenty meters.

But this skilled driver will be teaching lessons to the other Subaru drivers, how to successfully launch their vehicles and how to win a race, with making a new world record. As the interviewer asked the driver before the race, the estimated power of the engine of the Subaru is around 900 HP.

It has a tuned up turbocharger installed to provide more thrust, and they have done it. The car is now accelerating perfectly and acts perfectly on the track. The victory is totally deserved and cheers for the new world record.
