| 1:12.8 | Hello again. We're back. Happy Tuesday, everybody. It is Tuesday yet again. It's only time we do these now is Tuesday. All right. So yeah, happy Tuesday. It has come up quick. And this is a huge episode. You've probably seen from the thumbnail. And we hope you're following along. Our friends Savage Geese, Jack and Mark are with us. It's coming up in a little bit. excited to have him on. It's going to be really cool. We're talking about their new monster piece, the three monster cars. That's going to be really fun to just kind of hear some behind the scenes there. I mean, maybe you should watch it. Maybe you should stop this. Go watch their piece and then come back and watch maybe. But on the other hand, I'm excited to get the inside sort of scoop. Yeah. I don't know what I talk about it. But. That's been a really big piece. Also, thanks to all of you that have watched our lightweights piece. It's the exact opposite of their piece. They did the big heavy weights. That's true. We did the lightweight. So that is the Alpha 4C, the Lotus Elise and the Alpine A110. All of them, actual modern mid-engine cars under 300 horsepower, under 3,000 pounds. It's fantastic to drive and very illumin illuminating. We haven't seen that piece. We were surprised by some of the things we discovered. We'd love for you to watch that as well. But we have news. We have that big interview, which is going to be a monster. We have a couple of car debates, so it's a lot to cover already. News up front talking about what we all enthusiasts in North America, well, we'll worldwide want with the BRZ and the GR86. |
| 1:14.7 | And that is what Subaru has now done and to announce the type RA, which stands for record attempt. |
| 1:22.5 | That's right. |
| 1:23.4 | The car encouraging you to go out and get your personal best, your P.B., your personal record. |
| 1:27.4 | But it also suggests we haven't accomplished our goal, doesn't it? Doesn't record attempt mean, |
| 1:33.1 | I don't know if we'll get there? Like record holder, like, |
| 1:35.8 | king of the, I don't know, we'll see. Giving you the platform. I'm overworking it. I'm sorry. |
| 1:40.2 | Do this. So it actually starts with the TS, uh, the type type RA adopts that rear diff case with cooling fins from the cup car basic. It benefits as well from the shift assist function developed in the Super Takayu series with Rev Sync for downshifting and flat shift for upshifting without lifting. Really interesting and cool looking. So here is the, |
| 2:02.6 | the prior version was the TS, prior image was TS and this is that new. The thing that we all want, |
| 2:08.8 | Subaru, Toyota to do that they're only introducing for the Japan only market. I just thought |
| 2:13.4 | I'd put it out there because it exists. Like I said, everything that we want out of this car would make it better. No word on power increase. It could take more power. But here's the factory doing it. They realize they've got a great car. So I'm just hoping for a third generation of this. I'm hoping for that's a great one. I hope for a third generation as well. I'm also really pleased with the fact that these cars are around and doing some well and I'm hoping |
| 2:34.4 | that we start seeing more and more and more of these for the next decade at Hooked on |
| 2:38.5 | Driving I hope these continue to be right there alongside the Miadas as just the cars |
| 2:43.2 | that drivers can get into and can drive at all levels we have in every level of |
| 2:47.4 | hooked on driving from novices through the the folks that are running in the D group |
| 2:51.4 | at just open passing. |
| 2:53.1 | Expert level driving. |
| 3:08.8 | We're seeing Miadas. We're seeing 86 as I hope that continues because these are such great cars. And a third gen will be awesome. But I'm very curious what it'll be. I mean, you've also heard the other bit of news. I don't think we have a photo for this, but just dawned on me. There's news out there as well that Toyota is killing the three-cylinder engine in the GR Corolla and going to go to a 2-liter 4 with close to 400 horsepower in that car. Appreciate the three-cylinder. It sounds different. It's a different choice, but more power is. But this is Toyota thinking about engine changes in their cars. What's coming here? Only time will tell. Other bits of news. Nissan has news. |
| 3:26.2 | When's the last time I got to say Nissan has news? Nissan has enthusiast news. Enthusious news from Nissan? |
| 3:33.0 | I know. I know. This is not the actual photo. This is, I'm showing the Red Sport 400 because it's the |
| 3:37.4 | closest we've got right now. But Nissan is claiming that the skyline is going |
