Just read the article...the Evo wins, even with a worn clutch...Vishnu's lightly-modded Evo totally smoked everyone, of course!
There was also the "Eight Great Rides" article in that same issue...they are calling the Evo VIII the "new yardstick" of sport compact cars under $30K.
Every day that goes by, I am more and more glad I chose the Evo...

Just read that article here. Was pretty interesting the times posted. They said the reason being the worn clutch and the temp at time of the test. Even still was cool to see the Evo go head to head with some of Germanys finest examples.
