Launch Control: Grand Ole Opportunity - Episode 12.9

[@BikingwithJP]

I hope this series continues for a very long time, top quality production thank you for this :)

[@LukeDupin]

The last 5 or 6 of these have been SO FUN TO WATCH. Really great coverage. I am a little bummed out how fragile the tires are.

[@NotSean269]

you would be amazed how strong the tires are, the side walls are reinforced massively, its more a thing of how hard these guys are pushing. they running the same tires they run on WRC and top rally stages all of the world.

[@Splarkszter]

It takes a lot to go trough those tires. If you pay attention they are always the top team. They are very very fast and push really really hard.

[@RustyLockjaw]

Loving the season, thank you!

[@01FozzyS]

Enjoyed the feature of Scott and his family! Now let's send Brandon and Keaton to the WRC please!

[@gardigo]

This is the best thing on youtube these days!

[@Bezokay]

I'd be mad if my parents were racers and didn't introduce me to it. Lol

[@WhickedWheeler]

These episodes have been great. Thank you. So looking forward to more

[@andrewharris7868]

Whooooo! This is Rally! I love when competition steps up out of nowhere 🔥🔥🔥

[@DeicideB5S4]

Thank you! Travis and Bucky are Maryland heroes!

[@Sn0wc4t]

The precision machine Vs the wildman with near bottomless talent. Reminds me of the McRae/Makinen days. :)

[@Floatworld]

Subaru ❤ forever

[@sylvaire.sillies]

SUBARU I LOVE YOU AND THR TEAM !!

[@dudeitscesar]

Another banger of an episode, I hope to see more!!

[@dalevines8832]

I remember the Grand ole Opery. That is cool.

[@86themadhatter27]

Josh is driving for the M-Sport Ford WRC team this year so Travis and Brandon should be happy with their performance.

[@JZ_3]

Best web series on KZbin hands down. 🫶

[@johngrant1337]

great video ,thanks

[@krs6479]

Another fantastic video! Really like the piece on Scott Speed and family 👍🏼

[@Dan-nl2ug]

TRAVIS & RHI....YA BABY!!!

[@Nick-gg6tg]

That first day 2 stage looked brutal!

[@PlaySA]

Well done Brandon. Dude is FAST. Who knows, maybe someday he could get a chance in WRC, that would be freaking amazing

[@M0neyM4k3r183]

4:40 Such a cool shot

[@aw.img_motorpsort_media]

overmountain was an insane rally to photograph, definitely going to try and make it back for this year!

[@DearHalo_lover]

Thank you Subaru, my beloved

[@chapel976]

Scott Speed gave up his F1 seat to future World Champion Sebastian Vettel.

[@NotSean269]

I still don't understand why when the new rules came out for ARA that Vermont didn't just basically build a Rally2 car, It would have still dominated in America but it also could have meant they could ether have sold some as customer cars to other people in the world but also been able to enter some odd rounds and really rebuild the subaru brand at world rally.

[@nicolbraaaa]

Been waiting for this episode 💯💯

[@3ddrew691]

Shitty that Travis had an issue right at the end. Would have been nice to see him fight to the end for the Championship. Especially after Travis missing a race.

[@ozzysgarage]

Happy Wednesday ma doods!!! 💛💙💛💙💛💙

[@markthibault8579]

Great series!

[@sigma02chi]

Put a 6 Speed in the S210 and bring it to America PLEASE!! Also, 350 hp would be appreciated

[@metropolis10]

Such a great episode! A bit of everything. Glad for Travis win there, but that power steering was no fun.

[@lemieuxjoshua3]

Hell yeah

[@teddygunzbarno2102]

This is where motocross and supercross background will help TP

[@wvusmc]

Tennessee Rally looks awesome. I can see why it's rumored for WRC in 2026, and I hope that happens. Maybe Subaru will compete in the Rally 2.

[@LiveFreeMoto]

2025 is the year im going to work with Subaru!

[@michaelmcmillan8877]

Can't get netflix onboard with launch control??

[@AndrewMalkin]

Why have them ruin it? What's here is great

[@wvusmc]

​@AndrewMalkin it would bring a lot of eyes to American Rally.

[@AndrewMalkin]

@ Good point. Their F1 show packed the stands at CoTA

[@andrewjoeljackson4653]

that Rally2 Hyundai is said to be one of the slower Rally2 cars on gravel due to its (relative) lack of suspension travel.....would love to see a GR Yaris or Fabia or Citroen in the States

[@HassanIbrahimRally57]

Honestly, the WRX is gonna be faster than any Rally2 car. It has a bit more aero and power. It's basically the 'Rally2+' that was being discussed earlier in the year.

[@ほりっち-p5m]

SUBARU🇯🇵🗾✨🇺🇸

[@Splarkszter]

LIA BLOCK WILL BE IN THE NEXT EPISODE. THAT'S AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@patthetech]

"the first time I got into karting, it was pretty late.. i was 10" me, at 45, thinking about getting into karting... *sad panda*

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

7:50 THE FACTS are they are indeed quite a bit FASTER.... not only compete but are quicker, and easier to drive... No removing hands from wheel for shifting... Subaru has to every time they shift. Hyundai driver DID NOT HAVE TO, except for e brake.. Never once for shifting.. Think about how many times you shift up and down on a stage... It adds up.. QUICK. 8:52 H came over that first bump on the brakes, made the nose dive down. He should have hit it wide open and let the rear drop a little would have made for a softer landing... Mashing the brakes causes the front of the car to dive down... Especially as you crest a hill... you can redirect the cars trajectory doing this.

[@krismwangy]

Someone/ whatever board incharge should greenlight this team to represent Subaru at WRC, Please

[@aaronragasa6173]

The 27 regs explicitly allowing for sedans is hopeful news.

[@jarrod1766]

Hope y'all know it doesn't look great to be whiny about actual competition showing up

[@bowesmediainc8767]

Who’s whiny!? They are ecstatic!!

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

Im sorry but if WE CANNOT USE WRC SPEC FLAPPY PADDLE TRANSMISSION, Nor can Anyone coming for a single event to show off. Also, If you are 50+ points ahead, and it needs to come down to math to see who wins, Not about who had the skill to complete as many stages as possible near perfectly. You dont have a competition you have a Drama show. After watching this for years... people complain subaru is overbuilt, YET they say NOTHING about WRC SPEC CARS.... That dont even fit the rule book! DAFUQ?! Semenuk won this weeks ago. Simple as that. Without the Handicap "2 rally forgiveness" nonsense.... NOBODY, Nobody had a chance to catch him. Pastrana honestly wasnt even close.. IF we go by old rally rules not this new "forgivness" nonsense.

[@AndrewMalkin]

Drops have been a part of most racing series for decades. You don't always have a great day or you might not be able to make all of the races. Drops level the playing field and keep the racing tight.

[@robschilke]

First

[@Nick-gg6tg]

The brittish commentator really drives me nuts. Like I dont even want to watch it.

[@Andrews1314fifteen]

Good luck with life and I'm sorry about your brain

[@DropkickNation]

Great. Now get your asses into WRC in 2026. ;)
