I’ve been racing since age 19 in 1986. The hardest transition has from the old school thinking of braking in a strange line, downshifting, turning in with a constant stabilizing throttle and then accelerating from the apex to what Luke described, carrying the braking to the apex, then accelerating. You carry way more corner entry speed which is hard but oh boy is it fast. Great tips for new and old drivers!

I am fortunate enough to own one, and it is hands down the best car I have ever owned, and I would literally deliver pizzas just so I could drive it. The 40L fuel tank is small, but it will take me 540kms when driving to Qld given the 6 speed, but also it can be a thirsty little thing when you step on the angry pedal. I love my Yaris. I have put almost 40,000kms on it, and I can see myself putting 400,000kms on it over the years.

This was so amazing to watch. Here in the USA we don't get the Yaris, but the Corolla Hatchback GR. Problem is, out of the 3 cars here (and Corolla GR in the USA) the only "affordable" cars new or used would be the BRZ or the GTI. Now, obviously these 2 cars are TOTALLY different. Yet both very capable. If you could only have one car, Dollar per Dollar performance, Practicality of having friends, family, and all that into consideration? The GTI is just the best bang for the buck "in the real" world. In the GTI you can move your furniture one weekend, take your wife and 2 kids to Church on Sunday, and Go to the track afterwards, all in one car. None of the others here can do that. Here in the USA yes the Corolla GR can but at a MUCH higher price point. Even then, the GTI seems to have more usable space, better ride and better fuel economy overall. All the cars here are amazing, and in their each unique way are masters of what they were designed to do. Have Fun. Cheers from California USA👍👍

9:08 That is such a great tip. There's just too many people thinking they're going to be limited by the safety systems when out on track for the first time. While in reality, especially traction control will end up saving their butts, because at speed there is a fine line between being in control and becoming a passenger behind the wheel. This is also the reason why there's so many videos of people destroying their cars on tracks, especially on the NBR.

I have a BRZ with headers and a custom dyno tune (and handling mods) and I feel it has enough power. I drive it a lot in the twisties, the “Black Spur” for those of us in Victoria, and it still scares me. Can’t imagine going WOT with a turbo BRZ through that sort of course. Is a turbo on a BRZ really a “must have”? A lot of guys on KZbin say it needs a turbo etc., agree it’s lacking power, but headers and a tune make it feel how it should’ve been out of the factory. A BRZ with headers and a tune roughly equals a stock S2000 IMO. Loved the video guys, great comparison.

The S2000 is a bit underpowered as well, especially in comparison to modern stuff (I used to own one). I can't speak for everyone, but quite a few of the "BRZ/86 needs a turbo model" people on the internet aren't asking for a 400HP tuner car, but a BRZ/86 with a basic WRX-level engine. A 270-280 HP BRZ/86 would be a tremendous car from the factory (and no, it wouldn't drive the sticker price up by $10k like some people claim, since most of the driveline and suspension bits are already the same or nearly the same as the WRX, which handles 270 HP just fine).

The timing of this video couldn’t be more perfect. I DD a manual rwd Mercedes, bought a project audi fwd and awd. Typical audi’s they’re not running so this is helpful.

Interesting comparo, was hoping to see Luke to lap time them. Why aren't the boys taking some track lessons by now to get the best experience from their toys? Thats a whole new episode. I think the GR Yaris is where its at for these cars.

It's awesome that you are giving a car to a deserving person. But you should do some large give aways in other countries. Maybe not the US where I live. That's probably to far away. But other countries in your area. Love your show. Been watching for a long time. Thank you so much for all your hard work for mine and others benefit. You guys are awesome.

I wish you would have let him drive timed laps, that would have been very interesting. My fav is probably the Yaris with a BRZ close second. No interest in Golfing, tho.

my first vehicle was a long bed truck with no rear weight and no wet grip. Every slow left turn the rear kicked out, it couldn't stop well in puddles and the windscreen would fog up if the heater was turned on, but I loved that truck.

i wish they would get a new BRZ/86. the FA24 makes heaps of difference compared to the FA20. that extra displacement is a godsend

The cars aren't really comparable, the Golf is a heavy practical Hot Hatch, the Yaris is a mad Homologation spec of an eco town runner, and the BRZ is a entry level sports car. Making them compete would be like choosing between an Apple, Cheese and a Biscuit for which is the best snack. I mean, they're too different to have a fair comparison. What you would need is a car that has the same body shape, weight, gearbox, and engine with FWD, AWD, and RWD available to really see which is best and even then its gonna be personal preference and the Bias of the track, the FWD will be predictable but suffers from wheelspin, torque steer and understeer, the RWD will be faster on the straights and out of corners due to weight transfer but you need to be able to control that or you'll spin out and AWD will fast off the line and will offer no real surprises around the corners but will suffer at top end speed due to power having to be delivered to all 4 wheels meaning drivetrain loss is higher and depending on if the car favours front or back wheels it could still under or oversteer if pushed too hard. The Yaris would enjoy a tight technical circuit where its AWD system will come into its own, and it doesn't have to worry about top speed, the Golf would enjoy a good mixture of straights, long shallow turns and tight turns being able to do all of them and the RWD with enjoy long shallow turns, long straights and opportunities to put its weight on the back wheels.

that GR needs locking diffs to be proper both on and off track! 1 cm wheelbase difference between gr86 and GR Yaris, Yaris being 1cm shorter. Not as short as some people think.

front engine rear drive is the best to learn and enjoy, its most forgiving and also most fun mid engine rear drive is the fastest. front engine awd is the easiest front engine fwd is probably the safest
