It's one of those "you had to be there" kinda things. I was there, and just standing there watching you can tell the thing took off with about the same speed as an evo (from a roll.) It's easier to tell when 5 minutes prior you get to see several evo's take off in a hurry.

Rob was in a rush to meet up w/ some other people after the meet, but alot of people wanted to ride in the ralliart-T, I was in the first group, w/ 4 other people (icluding rob)... than the next set had 5 people (including rob). Don't worry, SCLC is having a new meet 3rd week of Jan, and hopefully rob will bring the ralliart-T and we'll get better footage there, if not a couple of us will just roll down to RRM.

Its definitely quick and I love the sound but Its hard to get a feeling for really how fast it is. It does look bogged down by the extra passengers. 5, 200 pound guys = 1,000 extra pounds. That might be a bit much but it still adds almost 30% extra weight to the car. Plus its in traffic on a busy street so you couldn't really open it up. Still, I'm grateful for the chance to see it in action. And its a silver ralliart like mine. So pimp!
