Thumbs up Super GT 2008- Subie takes 3rd!

Pretty good result I think compared to the competition in their respective classes!

I'm sure the '08 body will be in Super GT soon- probly same time as the '08 WRC car is released? I would think its probly just a matter of building it up and since this is all based in Japan, its only a matter of time before it come out. Super GT is Japanese series only I think and will not be stateside anytime soon as far as I understand it. I wish it would though!

I doubt the 08 body style will be switched to very quickly just because of the extensive drivetrain work cusco did to this car...
its the first awd symmetrical transaxle GT car...or something like that
they basically run a torque tube back to the transaxle (in the rear) that then sends a driveshaft back to the front diff...allows lower and more rearward placement of the engine.
