How the hell, the car never goes under 6k rpm?
especially between 1st and 2nd gear, rpm almost doesnt move

1st and 2nd gear ratios are super close
basically normally after i redline 1st, i nearly finish 2nd
that guy did a crazy launch!!!!
well...yea rpms dont drop past 6k in evos because of close ratio gearbox!
now...wheres the turbo lag

mate its an evo!
AWD
its called tractioN!
told u to buy an evo dude:p
not an s13!
and dumping the clutch at that rpm is definitely not good for the car
i've done 6k launches a few times too, no wheel spin
just pushed back at the seat !
hehe

Is it just me, or did i hear that he change gears after the rev limiter kicks in at 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th?
Is there any point of changing gear at the "bouncing needle" point when the max kw is at 6500rpm and max torque is at 3500rpm?
Has anyone else watch Gumball 3000 2006, watching ferrari, lambo, bentley, Phantom and AMG max out is more exciting
But yeah his one crazy dude

I don't have the link, I just have all 2hrs+ of DVD.
If you use BT, you can just "grab" it from there.

dont think it was a dyno, listen to it carefully, i swear it's the sound of a car going past at the very start of the clip

Most certainly done on the road. You can see the reflection of things passing by at high speed.

this leads to my other question... is it safer to do that on the road or on a dyno
