Davo - the Satria in 2008 was far from speedy, it was/is nowhere near as fast as the cars driven by David Russell in the 2001/02/03 seasons.

There are some good photos in that album.

As i said earlier i'm hoping that the Proton enters as I would like to see more closer competition in that class. Last year the 05 RS was more than 10 secs a lap quicker than the 08 2.0R impreza.

2009 Qualifying
Impreza RS 05 - 2:55.9575
Impreza 2.0R 08 - 3:08.7530 (upgraded to WRX for 2010)

Impreza RS won class, 2.0R too slow.

2008 Qualifying
Impreza RS - 2:55.4709
Proton Satria GTI - 2:58.0050
Hyundai Sonata - 3:01.2178

Hyundai won the class due to Impreza & Proton having mech problems. The Impreza was chasing the Hyundai down all afternoon and finished on the same lap.

2007 Qualifying
Impreza RS - 2:57.1506
BMW 120i - 3:01.6396

BMW 120i won, RS engine expired around 10th - 11th hour.
