  • One of the most memorable rally cars of the WRC era - the Subaru Impreza WRC (97-2000) in action on tarmac driven by Prodrive´s factory team drivers Colin McRae, Piero Liatti, Richard Burns and Juha Kankkunen as well as numerous privateers. No retakes, no gorillas - just pure driving.

      The WRCars were all 2.0L. The 22B and rally car were not the same thing, the 22B was a road car designed to look like the WRCar, but the 22B was not the competition car.

      Johan Fouche 22B was a racing replica of WRC98. It was 2.200 cc for tuning and torque reason, to match better the WRC counterpart that was only 2000 cc.

      CJAE Y I really hope they decide to go back. They just obliterate the opposition in Rally America year after year. Subaru has also been setting profit records month after month for like the past 3-4 years or something, so they should be well financially now to support a WRC team which supposedly was reason for leaving in 08 if I'm not mistaken. They are involved in different motor sports like the 24hrs Nurburgring and GT in Japan. But I think it's been long enough, FHI is strong enough to support a WRC and get back to the roots that made Subaru many of its fans.

    ニュル24耐でもクラス上位の車に勝ってしまうほど速くて壊れない。スバルはもっと評価されるべき

    Great video man, I forgot how great these Subarus were. Don't get me wrong, I love mine ('04 WRX), but I wish it was a two door style. If only Subaru could go back to its WRC roots...
