I had heard them speaking in a previous launch control or maybe dirtfish recap that this was the last year for the car. This meant to me that it was either a ‘22 or a new STI! I’m looking forward to seeing what the new platform does next season! I’m glad we finally got a glimpse of the direction!
Very informative! Not a lot of the manufacturers share such important info for the youth or for the people trying to get into this beautiful sport. Good Job Subaru!
Great informative video. Well produced. Sidenote: It's such a pity that ARA and FIA/WRC are operating seperately. How cool would it be to have an American Subaru team compete in WRC1 as a factory team, and maybe have two WRC rounds take place on the North American continent. A rally fan can dream :)
I grew up in Kenya. Back when I was younger, the teams were allowed to follow the cars with vans stuffed with everything needed to fix the cars. They were a spectacle to behold! Moreover, that rally was never over until it was over. Didn't matter where you were in the standings; anyone had a chance to win! Glad the Safari Rally is back on the WRC calendar! Hopefully, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Peugeot, Citroen and others will return to rally and bring back the glory days of the sport!
The best use of pace notes that I've ever seen was with David Higgins and Craig Drew. The hood flew open, blocking the windshield and they relied solely on the pace notes to get them to the end of the stage
Look up your local rallycross group. i started there, went to DF eventually, now im halfway through with my ARA build. It was a very natural progression of things, meeting great people, gaining experience, and not breaking the bank immediately. Oh, and definitely visit/volunteer at rallies, they wouldnt happen without the communities support!
I’m a massive F1 fan, but this is truly something you can’t compare the two. But what I can say is that these new generation of rally cars are like F1 car for off road. Peak performance for another stand alone motor sport. Wow.
Awesome video! I wish it had cut to testimonials from regular volunteers to emphasize how much fun volunteering is, how important it is to the sport, and how it shouldn’t be intimidating.
Oh dear! Whilst this is a terrific video, as a stage checker myself , I do ask, how do you get from stage 1 to the start of stage 2 without entering the stage in the wrong direction at 0:40 seconds Whoops! Still a big fan of the series.
I wish NASCAR had this level of approachability with their sport still. How cool would it be to see a car you can buy at the dealership be race prepped and running at 200mph at a super speedway like they did in the 60s? By an amateur in their own shop or garage, no less? There’s an art, a beauty, and a certain purity there that has been lost. It’s great to see that rally is so grassroots and the complete opposite of an out-of-touch corporation. NASCAR looks to F1 for ideas, but I think it can learn so much from rally and its own past.
I'm a lifelong Subaru owner and Enthusiast and actually go to these rallies but if they're not going to build the new STI then we should all just start cheering for Toyota Corollas!
If I was a younger man with a back that wasn't as twisted as a rally course, I could jump into one of these cars and not die! I use to drift a cargo van on the "Tail of the Dragon" back when I was 17. I had the skill and the nerve to drive at the limits! If I wouldn't have lost my life savings trying to get my back fixed, I might have made it in wrc racing. I miss driving fast!
From what I have heard, rally is quite affordable motorsport to participate in after autocross, I would love build and thrash a boring econobox made into a rally car through a stage, seems like a fun past time for someone like me who loves motorsports but doesnt have the time commitment or money to go endurance racing or GT racing
I feel like it would be really cool to do everything done of these cars, with all the modern modifications, but on an older car like a Legacy RS or second gen WRX. It would look absolutely mad compared to the rally cars from their time
Goddamn, sometimes I wish to live in US. (Dream) - Wrecks everywhere, I expect that cars and parts are cheaper than in Europe (as I see in one comment "rally is affordable sport" - maybe in US).........And the whole culture around it, imagine you build your own beast from the scratch....and yeah its FUN but its also an ART :-) (I remember one GT racers comment rally "We still complain that barriers are to close and those guys race same speed in narrow alleys :-) (movie Love the Beast - about rally - check it)
@chozzecz I've not been chasing my dream to rally but I've been working for subaru and feel it is good to know how to take apart the cars and maybe one day I will follow my heart and do what I want to do but the sport needs more love and I'm sure it is going to go electric but I will miss the subaru rumble. Hopefully you will follow your dream and everything will come ture, cheers from the states!
If you want more proof of how iconic the McRae era was, Subaru still use a modified version of the 555 logo with their own logo down the side of the car!
Here is an idea, how about Subaru for step up their game and compete in the WRC, it has been over a decade since you've left WRC and it has been currently left with only 4 teams, it has gotten boring and it's been consistently dying in popularity. Just imagine how awesome of a comeback you could make by competing in WRC once more, instead of just the USA Rally.
He talks about the WRC as if it were European, when in reality it is the world championship. With races on all continents and with all the Rally drivers in the world aspiring to compete there. In addition, the national championships in the world run under WRC regulations, generally in lower categories.
Anyone knows what the probable cause of coolant leak on our family car is? It's a Subary Impreza Hatchback 2008. My brother came home last month and it's smoking from the radiator. We checked the next day and there's no coolant when we opened cap. But there's plenty of coolant in the reservoir. Couldn't bring it to the shop cause we live quite a long way away and we don't want to risk stopping in the middle of traffic. Any tip would be greatly appreciated.
Try searching the issue then put 'NASIOC' after search. Nasioc stands for north american subaru impreza owners club. There will probably have been a thread made about whatever it is in the past decade
Nice little Easter egg seeing the ‘22 WRX getting prepped! Can’t wait to see what VSC can do with it!!
Ok, so I'm not the only one who saw that 😆
Good eye! ;)
Glad i did see that correctly
so does that mean there won't be a STI version of WRX next year?

Nice on subaru getting Rally Motorsports out there to the general public.
If not them who else?
Spot on. Exactly what I wanted to say 👍

Conversely, im glad the FIA isnt involved. They are corrupt as hell and constantly make awful decisions. However without them? Yes.
If i remember it correctly WRC does have some plans to go to the US one day, but nothing concrete for now.

I guess that's the one.
That's fantastic!
This is BRILLIANT! Very well done Subaru! Thank you for sharing details of how the greatest form of motorsport that's rarely seen, actually works.

"Maybe you've played the Colin McRae or DIRT rally games."
Maybe we have 😉
Good video 👍
And RBR and WRC 😎
How are these vids flying completely under the radar this content is high quality
I really appreciate that a manufacturer is making this content.
2:29 Nice car sounds!
2:28 I make the same noises when I am walking around the house 😂😂
This was a really nice video congratulations Subaru!

Best academic class I took all day. Looking forward to the next one Prof!
Great job on the video. Easy to digest and covered all the key points. More plz!
Love this! can we get a series about rally construction and how a team works?
yeah that would be dope
Stay tuned this winter for a mini series all about the new WRX rally car build!
@@formulaphoto Sweet! Looking forward to it! Love your work btw!
Always blows my mind how they drive with those pace notes... black magic.
Its still crazy to me how these monsters go so fast at tight corners and narrow roads. Rally car drivers skills are impeccable!
Awesome video! I wish it had cut to testimonials from regular volunteers to emphasize how much fun volunteering is, how important it is to the sport, and how it shouldn’t be intimidating.
It would have been cool if they went over $$$ - I've always wanted a break down of costs a top team goes through each year
You mean $$$$$$$
" Welcome to the Rally Family " Hell yeahh !
Thank you Subaru for existing
Oh dear!
Whilst this is a terrific video, as a stage checker myself , I do ask, how do you get from stage 1 to the start of stage 2 without entering the stage in the wrong direction at 0:40 seconds Whoops!
Still a big fan of the series.
No one better to host this video than Andrew!!! Well done Subaru Motorsports USA!! Now to create a ring tone from his waste gate noise....
5:09 made me cry because one person from there is no longer with us 😢
Great intro to our sport! Well done Subaru Motorsports USA! 😀 👍👍
This guy is really good at making downshift noises with his face.
😂 2:28 though it was the car.😂🔥
Great intro video to get even more new fans!
I see that 2022 WRX getting torn down 👀😎👍
Great video! Now I have something to send to my friends when they ask "what the heck is Rally?"
great explanation of the tires tbh
ขอให้ต้นกำเนิด หนังสือ การเขียน Subaru มีความสุขที่สุดรอบโลก แล้วขอให้ Subaru มีความสุขที่สุดรอบโลก และขอให้ผู้ขับขี่ของท่าน ปลอดภัยทุกถนน และขอผู้ขับแข่งของท่าน แข่งจบทุกสนาม และทุกฤดูกาล ขอบคุณพระเจ้า Subaru
2:28 For a second I thought it actually cut to him driving with how realistic that imitation was
Thank you for making this!
Great video, i lost it laughing at him making the noises with the shifter and handbrake
@3:20 "Without rules, the engineers will go really mad" LMFAO
I love it! Great video!
This video was so goooooood!!
WHAT A VIDEO!! I WAS SCREAMING!!
what a fantastic video.
Love these videos from Subaru. I drive a 2019 STI as my fun car and it's amazing...after about $10k in mods 😒
Was the head gasket changed.
@@mmc2k9999 Not in mine but I only have about 17k miles.
Reservoir for when things get really tough. My life has changed after finally knowing what the reservoir in a suspension does.

We need Subaru back in the WRC!
2:28 Best part of the video.

Awesome!
Awesome info
I feel like it would be really cool to do everything done of these cars, with all the modern modifications, but on an older car like a Legacy RS or second gen WRX. It would look absolutely mad compared to the rally cars from their time
Ken Block did this a few seasons ago with his Escort Cosworth
@@ViperKillerWannabe oh yeah! I think it would be cool to see if it on a Legacy though. The Cosworth is definitely cool though
Check out the latest Gymkhana car! 1983 GL Wagon!
Everything you need to know about rallying is having FUN!!!

I love this video
Is this gentleman the one who voices the tutorials in Dirt Rally? Those were terrific.
2:29 best part 😂
He nailed the sound effects. That man knows things.
How would one of these fair in the wrc against toyota, ford and hyundai?
I think anything longer than a hatchback would be worse in WRC
Educational!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Would love if subarau uploads more onboard
2:28 Glad im not the only one who does this
never thought i would learn something by a car company
Niiice Subaru!
No rally in Los Angeles, but I got my 17 STI , 15 BRZ and building my 03 WRX as a rally car
No rally in Indianapolis. I've still been to 5 so far this year. Just have to travel, that's part of the fun
There is rally over in Lancaster though
So maybe you can miss one? You dont even notice :-)
Why would you turn the coolest one you own into a mud splitter
Can AWD converted cars compete? My car came awd factory over seas but my specific car was converted
good video thanks
1:25 can’t wait to rally in my 86
The impression at 2:28 had me giggling
One word: MEGA

It’s nice to know all this but how do you start rally car racing
well explained
my dream car
Are you still gonna use the Initial D Subaru Impreza WRX STis?
Can’t imagine how the co-driver can read in the car without throwing up 😅
Any Subaru owners in here? Not just commentors.
I bought the 2022 WRX limited, I’m interested in rally racing and rally cars now. Got bored of bland V8 quarter mile racing and muscle cars
Surprised you'd use full slick for the Mt. Washington Auto Road considering how much of it is dirt. Didn't think slicks worked that well on dirt.
"office manager here in the car" lol

Of course Subaru did a Rally 101
*PLEASE COMEBACK TO WRC*
It'd be cool to see Subaru in WRC.
So why are there no studs on the snow tires?
When will Subaru join the Rally1 car list man.
@3:50, did he just say the stock tires are suitable for winter driving? Dude's gonna get somebody killed!
Why Subaru isn't in WRC?
1:58 MY GOD😳
when you will comeback to WRC????
