From 0 to Crash in 18 Seconds: Subaru Impreza STI


Imagine this: you're all suited up, complete with racing helmet, gloves and shoes, bolted in the racing bucket seat of a Subaru Impreza WRX STI with your buddy by your side to experience the thrill of a life time on the race track.

But alas; as soon as the flag goes down your STI stalls and the engine shuts off. Your friend chuckles but no worries, just turn the key and fire up the turbocharged flat four and let's take it from the start.
Okay, we're ready now and yes, 18 seconds later you've reached the final cone and you can unleash the awesome power of Subaru's boxer engine only to…crash into a wall! On the bright side, you may have just set a new track record for the fastest crash ever…
But for those that love a good ending, a couple of months later, our Japanese protagonist got his web redemption (that's what you get from watching too much Tosh.0) by returning to the circuit and completing several laps without a hitch.
