@@Aidzius88 His 0-60 and 1/4 mile times were faster than all other traditional manual cars and only slower than cars with sequential gearboxes (except R34 for 1/4 mile time). Looks to me like he is shifting like a pro.
@@flippingcarsrepairs and the scooby isn’t point and shoot? Running Syvecs, so other than changing gear it’s not really any different to piloting the R8.
That Subaru / driver combo is deadly....The driver sure know's how to get the best from his machine. Taking down a dct R8 in both roll and drag is no joke.....That Subaru is seriously Badass!!
As a scooby owner, I was rooting for the Subaru, but with the huge difference in power-to-weight ratio between these two, I was surprised at how well the R8 kept up. Just goes to show how much a faster transmission counts and how much car tech has evolved. Nice race 😎
My word, that was FUN to watch. Genuine didn't think the scooby wouldn't have been that dominant against the V10 and DSG combo, the R8 is an immense car in its own right considering thats factory spec. Shame that flat stopped play. That is hands down the most mental scooby I have ever had the privilege of seeing and considering he is shifting manually that is some serious pace! Another cracking vid OG!
I’m in South Africa and own a built 500bhp blobeye sti, what a fantastic achievement by Rob for our brand, we all raving about it here on our forums. Absolutely epic mate. So proud of you and everyone that put work into that blue beast. Jamie excellent content as always. Old Subaru’s never die they just get faster 💪
This Subaru is really well tuned in the way it puts the power down, the gear box and the engine synchronized really well. To top it up, Rob really know how to launch that car
I'm very happy to see a Scooby (GC8) which was built by EngineTuner. Back in the day they took on my car after it had been worked on by three other well known turners and always had issues. After the amazing dad/son combo at EngineTuner had spent time diagnosing my cars issues and resolving them, it never went better and was fantastic for the first time in all driving styles (i.e. it was great on boost but also smooth around towns at low revs). The chaps at EngineTuner really are amazing engineers.
This dude has to be the most chad looking guy without any expression at all, a true jdm sigma male, very hard to see but when you see one, you know damn well you're loosing
This guys is a professional driver ,and he so humble in fact both men are humble i fuljoy the race from start to finish i truly LmAO...scooby look like Arnold Schwarzenegger with a big machine gun while shift those gears absolutely stunner madd!
Watching the confidence leave the r8’s drivers body on that first race was abit sad tbh hahaha 🤣 And Jamie man you’ve gotta split the manual categories into manual and sequential, we all know it ain’t comparable
One of my favourite cars of all time the subaru! Got goosebumps when I got the notification for the race, couldn't watch it fast enough! Scooby and its driver are absolute legends!!
Looking across and hitting the rec limiter in 3rd on the 2nd roll race was the only reason it was a draw. The rest of the time the Scooby was faster. Great video and fun comparison. R8 is on power 100% of the time whilst the Scooby goes through gear changes and small moments of lag as it gets back onto full boost. Lovely to watch. Good on both guys.
Been waiting for this battle for what seems like years 😊 Had a heads up from rob beforehand I wouldn’t be disappointed……… Nice win for the Sti and the amazing work by Engine Turner 😎
That impreza is amazing! I thought the manual shifting would be the difference and the R8 would take this. Great driving by the impreza guy. Now how much do I need to get one this fast!? 😂
Props to both drivers. Gotta say that dude was driving the hell out of that Subaru.
It is crazy how well the STI is build and tuned. Almost zero turbolag after gearshift. Perfection with this amount of power 😍
thats because he was running antilag, you can hear it on the run-off/slow downs
@@Mr_Jingles_147 i though so 😉 thanks for info
Flat shifting
@@seanoxborough5830 exactly lol
I was thinking the same sh*t.
At high torque figures and/or rpm manuals just refuse to operate changing gears ⚙️ 😮
Can’t believe he was so close shifting manual compared to sequential 1/4 mile times. Very clean driving. 👏
I think with the close range gearing and quaife lsd isn't that far from a sequential
Also looks like he has flat foot shifting as well
Sorry guys, but I think that Scooby driver couldn't shift manual like a pro
@@huiputka1 makes no difference to shift times

Rob is hell of a driver.Amazing shifts.
Far from amazing.
most gearshifts took about 2 seconds and some limiter bouncing.
@@Soulvex I think he was flat foot shifting with antilag
@@dynamitedavies he comes off the gas 100% most of the time, maybe he tried that but whatever it was It wasnt the best.
Are you serious? 😂
That guy can seriously drive the wheels off that scooby 😊
What about that guy he drove that tyre off the r8 😅
Audi boring point and floor it piece of piss that scooby is another story👍👍👍

R8 has way better aero too
@@lepermessiyah5823 yep, mainpart here, 2nd truely the trans and way faster shifting.
Dual clutch is hard to beat 😂🍻
wow would be awesome to see that Subaru take on Affi's white R34 Skyline
Read my mind. Absolutely mental match-up that would be. Make it happen OG!
I was thinking it should come back with max power and take on Ricky's R33
I would like to see that one too
I think the scooby would get slayed by that car
Skylines just a bit faster
10:29 Rob is sitting in the Car like he is Sleeping 😊😊😊😊😊😊
That Subaru is mighty impressive. Even rowing through the gears it's catching up the R8. Both lovely cars for different reasons.
100hp more, hardly surprising
@@PJ-iz2nc and audi with thats cost 2 times more than tuned subaru...

@@jazenkow5792But 4 times nicer and better driving than that subaru. Still would take the r8.

Amazing race and to be fair that subaru looks like it's been tuned perfectly which is a rare thing for a lot of builds. The legend still lives strong
Engine tuner one of the best in the game
Yep. A good tune and keeping up on fluids are the most important things the Subie world
Scoob was madness , I know too well how much fun Rob's having in that cockpit :)

Manual v dsg wow
That scooby is quick for a Manual
R8 sounds 👌
I'm more of an EVO guy but this Subie is giving me goosebumps! 🔥🤯
Great line up. The irony of the R8 breaking down (granted it was a flat tyre) was funny. That STI driver shifted beautifully.
Yeh he never had to bang his gears aka stressing the tranny forks ect.
That's my fav subaru model, I think none of the latest models nailed the look on the same way.
And that's crazy fast
Well done to both but damn Rob, you're a rated driver 💪🏽
That subaru is mental absolutely mashing it 👌🔥🔥🔥
Gun fingers after the drag😂😂 legend !
Great seeing Rob from EngineTuner on the channel. Growing up in Devon, most of us remember 'Alan Jeffery' and his legendary Scoopy tuning ability!
Rumor has it , the r8s mate let the tyre down to save him getting a clean sweep of loses against the scooby
😩
@OFFICIALLY GASSED - OG it's only a rumor 😂😂😂
🤣🤣
2nd fastest car with a clutch pedal on the 1/4 mile leaderboard... shows how good his shifting was. 🔥
Old school will always be the best you can feel it's emotion
The fella driving the Subaru!!!
Who needs dct !
What a driver 😊
That Scooby is a monster!🔥🔥🔥
😘
Here again after watching the Instagram story🤩 He's stepping up against Affi🔥🔥🔥
That Scooby is an amazing bit of kit. 😎
Scooby driver has the right attitude to driving a manual 👍
The subby vs Affi can be epic
Would be scooby for me the sound from a subaru is like no other
While the Subie ninja was shifting gears like a boss, the sad supper car guy was like wtf, I think I should just buy a Subie 😆 🤣
GC8 baby!!!!!!!!!! So so proud of that old school little boy bringing the heat!!!!!! Love it!
I have seen an Impreza with the same power but with a sequential and it kills everything lol, another awesome video 😁😁
Glad to see someone who knows how to launch a Scooby.
Well done.
It's got launch control
@@Billionaires_Row he said the subaru has no driver aids. Pretty sure that means it doesnt have launch control
@@sigmamale4147 yeah I guess you're right... X_x
My god that sound of gravel smacking the bottom of the Subie is exactly what I hear every day lol. The sound just travels through the cabin so much
Didn’t know Rob Brydon was such a badass!
Haha, it's not just me that thought this! 🤣
Hats off to Mr scooby!!! He can drive that car!!! I actually felt bad for the r8 it had no chance
This dude has to be the most chad looking guy without any expression at all, a true jdm sigma male, very hard to see but when you see one, you know damn well you're loosing
From now on that's how your supposed to DRIVE. FROM NOW ON THAT'S HOW YOU DRIVE 😍
Too cool to handle! 😂
That Scooby driver knows how to keep his car gripped in a straight line.

Need the Subaru against Affi Skyline asap 🔥👌🏽💯
We want Rob vs Affi! Scooby vs Godzilla 👌🏻
That 4th gear in the STi...😍
When Syvecs deployed the full fury...😂❤😂
Yoo living this episode 😂 subaru is a monster
Same people that built my impreza P1 engine🙌🏽
Scrooby is class. Great build and driver. So much more fun than the boring audi.
@9:20 that mighty Type R?? Jamie 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sti Version 5 type-R?
It is an STI TYPE-R
@Officially Gassed - A challenge between Affi and Rob would be epic! 👌
THE Subaru driver was well focus on the win and he did it in old school style, another good race video 👍👍
Great to see a driver who can change gear properly when driving a manual gearbox car fast !
Those manual gear changes are legend already. Unbelievable car
I thought Affi was the bet manual driver on here, not anymore, Rob is the don now for the analogue cars 😮
Nice to see engine tuner getting some recognition, been going for years and do proper engineering.
Not just remaps.
Definitely the sti, cause I have an 05 that is similar in build and power. Had it since 2010, Best car I've ever owned.
Ive said it before ill say it again, a drone over the finish line is the only sure fire way to see who won the close races 👍
Love these vids 👌
at the exact finish line point, yes

Scooby is gone hahah manual aswell
Damnnnnn that man rob can drive that STI. Shifting like a boss
Just take a second to appreciate what that Scooby just done..
Wow did not expect the scooby to launch so quick excellent driving
Next : Affi the Legend vs Rob
Rob is the kung of manual and that R8 is sick standard
Been waiting for this battle for what seems like years 😊
