Rally 101: Everything you need to know about rallying

If you want to learn more, or get involved yourself, this is your Rally 101 primer. Brought to you by Subaru Motorsports USA.

Nice little Easter egg seeing the ‘22 WRX getting prepped! Can’t wait to see what VSC can do with it!!

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 :)

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

How are these vids flying completely under the radar this content is high quality
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 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!
I really appreciate that a manufacturer is making this content.

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!
Would love if subarau uploads more onboard
Reservoir for when things get really tough. My life has changed after finally knowing what the reservoir in a suspension does.

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.
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!
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.
Is this gentleman the one who voices the tutorials in Dirt Rally? Those were terrific.
my dream car
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
💚
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.
Educational!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1:25 can’t wait to rally in my 86
When will Subaru join the Rally1 car list man.
2:28 Glad im not the only one who does this

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.

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!
Does anybody know how much they can change (if any) to the drivetrain of the cars?
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
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.
Everything you need to know about rallying is having FUN!!!

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)

Hopefully you will follow your dream and everything will come ture, cheers from the states!

Господи храни Субару 🙏
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!
So why are there no studs on the snow tires?
when you will comeback to WRC????

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.

Go try rallycross first. You can take just about any car and it's pretty cheap, but still a ton of fun!
Samir and his co-driver brought me here.. 😅
I believe the stock STI did not come with “All season tires”…. So wet and dry summer only no winter.
WRX on WRC again when?
Why dont you go into the WRC
