Mexico’s always an exciting circuit for WRC. Here’s some videos of this year’s event as it progresses:

Pro-Drive’s P2 does 0-60 in 3.8 seconds, and is equipped with the same motor as the STi (except has a bigger turbo and a lot less weight to drag around).
Top Gear reviewed the car here. One of the coolest things about this car is its anti-lag feature, similar to a rally car. It keeps the turbo spooled between shifts and makes lots of neat sounds (damn, I wish my Talon could do that!). It also has a very smart computer allowing the torque to transfer between the front and rear ends of the car effectively making it handle better, taking it around the Stig’s test track nearly as fast as a Zonda.
Ken Block jumps his Subaru WRX Rally car 171 feet off a dirt jump. The car flies so high it nearly hits the camera:
