Credit to Subaru and the massive set the driver has but I'm not sure I see the the relevance to.....anything. The car is a silhouette racer. It has as much in common with the road car on which it is based as a porcupine.

Oh I like that term! Like an engine swapped Twin things reach a point where it should no longer be called the original name.

A tech talk about this car:
[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-9v846NQJ0"]Subaru WRX STI RA Tech Talk - YouTube[/ame] As other mentioned, not relevant at all with the ordinary STI or even the STI Type RA. |

Though in all reality, there are so many factors to consider when a manufacture does one of these laps that it shouldn't really be taken with much more than a grain of salt. Vehicle prep levels, drivers, weather conditions, etc. A small difference like that on such a long course like the Nordschleife equals a few seconds easily.
