looks like they run into some traffic. But it looks like the si is pulling right with the other

I posted this on a different forum. Si misshifts 3rd gear, not that it matters, cuz GSR would've pulled him anyway with less weight and more power. The car that passes them on the left is an SRT4, the other, obviously, is an S2K.

Everytime I see an Si race video, not that there's a lot but they always misshift.....

Do you think this DBW is hampering the ability for the Si to race in straight lines...lol

Nah, the driver's just suck. lol

Seriously though, the timing is a bit different on the Si. I know it wasn't immediately familiar for me, coming from an auto Legend after having a 97 HX manual, but from what other's have said, if you've never driven an Si before, it doesn't seem immediately familiar. If you have, it more than likely will, especially if you've driven the 99-00 Si because that's what the 8th gen is closest to.

Here's another video:

That's true. Give it a little time and these vidz will look a little different
