GTR vs. Supra vs. Silvia vs. RX-7

I just saw this video today, it's pretty cool!

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Vu_pyi8j0N0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Vu_pyi8j0N0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

There is a eye-widening scene on the last lap.

great vid! the RX-7 was pretty outclassed. It should have gone:
1. Silvia
2. GT-R
3. Supra

dead last RX-7

The biggest disadvantage of the RX-7 was that it made about 350 hp whereas all the other cars were 550+ hp.

it's funny how much of a lead the RX-7 had, I guess they had to give him some kind of a chance

RX-7 was probably a lot lighter.

True, which is why it was doing well in the corners, but the uphill section of the race track just killed it.
