#brandonsemenuk #winterrally #subarurally
Awesome episode. Warms my heart to see the Subaru repping the #KB43VER.
Finally, good to be back.
Bring back the old launch control style of narration.
Amen!!!
Here here!!
The opening diologue was gold XD
Having the national anthems for each champion was a nice touch.
I won't lie at around 2:15 Brandon and his co-driver gave me de ja vu of Higgins and Drew.
Lassic! So good to see that VSC still has a relationship with him.
The short notations (like Fan, Fan, Fan) are a riot.
VSC @5:27 please for the love of fans, make that a poster. What a shot!
All the bonfire alley scenes were awesome!
awesome turnaround time on getting this vid out!!
That was rad!!
SO EXCITED FOR THE NEW SEASON!
Semenuk KILLED it i love how well maintained and composed he is. Considering what happened last year he knew anything can happen. 13 minutes!
Nice work everyone!
Love to see an episode a few days after the event, not 6 months later! This will keep us interested all year around!
Timely upload considering there's an actual blizzard ripping through my town at the moment. #WRXSTI helped me get home from work no problem. Stay safe people
✌️
Some call it winter. I call it Rally season. 😁
Bonfire alley looks so cool from all the drones shots! And Brandon is just so smooth and dialed
IT'S BACK BABY!!!!
Great coverage please keep this coming!
This is AMAZING! I love how the crow is cherring in the stage!!! WOOW... is F***ng AWESOME!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Glad to see the series continue but please please please bring back the old narration style!!!!!
I love rally and love Subaru, but ARA needs better competition without Travis and Ken. If Brandon wins every race by 10-15 minutes, where's the fun in that?
Subaru need to bring back Higgins and drew for this season to give Brandon some competition!
Or me
Oliver Soleberg comes back to compete or something
The comment I was looking for
This guy should try WRC
Bonfire alley has to be peak rally spectating. Hanging around a fire crushing some beers watching cars slide past ya. Amazing stuff. My only issue with it is when the smoke causes visibility problems for the drivers.
Definitely going to have to be there at bonfire alley some day. What an awesome event.
yes!
Always a treat to see launch control. I live in Maui so I don’t get any exposure to rally here. I need to travel
To a race soon. It’s sad not to see KB but I’m very impressed with Brandon Semenuk. He has really proven to be an incredible driver.
Still top notch production. Love it.
Bonfire alley looks like a party!
Yeah, I am a great fan of Subaru and the Subaru US team. I absolutely love watching the ARA rallies they are run in spectacular scenery,!!👌... so much better than here in the UK!!!...can I ask guys where is Travis?.. is he not doing the ARA?... just interested. Hopefully some fans will know!👍.... cheers to all fellow ARA supporters!🍻🏁🇺🇲🇬🇧👌😁
Travis announced he was looking to spend more time with his family and focus on NRX
@Bowes Media Inc thanks ever so much mate for that update, really appreciate that. 👍
That's good to hear that he will spend more time with his family.
ARA, is still a great watch!.. awesome drivers and cars!!.. 👌
Thanks again for taking the time out to reply to me. 👍🍻😁
@@8888shooter no prob! Thanks for watching!
@Bowes Media Inc I absolutely love watching these videos. I've been watching them for many years now! Awesome work. Keep up the fantastic work guys!. Best regards from Paul over the big pond!!🇬🇧🇺🇲
@@bowesmediainc8767 You guys are awesome. Love this series.
Hard cuts to random national anthems, all with Reggae in the background. I love it
Thank you VSC,another season of STI.....go baby go!!!....coming from the home of the Olympus rally
LMAO I love Texas Dave and Bucky!
i loved seeing that TCRT 50 sticker.
Great to see all those fans turn out!
Great to see Semenuk in his element! Really shining on the ice! I can understand it being hard to rush into stage rally after the events of this year, just excited to see more of the kings this year!
This episode was amazing, that bonfire alley shot!!!!!!!
Lmao 🤣 Bucky edit was perfect 👍🏽
Brandon is the nicest, most humble guy. You would never know he's a living legend. Would love to hang with this guy.
Hell yes
Luv how Bucky is back. He might as well be one of the Subaru American diplomats lol.
Need more Bucky Lasek content! ✨
Through the magic of editing, bonfire alley is 100 turns long 😂😂
You can never have too much of a good thing.
No Video on the changes for the 2023 season? In this video it was mentioned that you have less power and more aero dynamic restrictions It would be cool to get some more information about that
It’s coming…. Allllll the information and more…. Hang in there
Way to start the season,both of you!!
Love to see bucky, and love to see Brandon clap some cheeks. I have to be at the next snowdrift.
Good work Mate!
Congrats.
Ultimate stability! 😊
Is there any way to view this episode without the music?
YES! PLEASE! The music was a massive distraction in this video.
Good to see, "Launch Control" still doing their thing..
Quanto mais dificíl o percurso, mais confortavel é para um subaru!! Que carro maravilhoso!!!!
SUBARU....555🏁
hell yeah!
I love this shit
ARA needs more competition. R2 and R5 need more coverage cuz they could be equally as entertaining but more accessible
Travis still on the team??
I believe he is still on the team. However, he is sitting out this season.
@dealt well that is a bummer. Guessing the parachute accident still not 100% then
Travis was racing in NASCAR and likely couldnt do both
Bring back the STI
A Crosstreck STI 6 spd manual !
Aguante Subaru
I would absolutely love to visit this rally and experience that "bonfire alley!🔥!!!.... that place, with those fans, looks bloody awesome !!!!!..where would be the nearest airport to get to this stage?... Can any good fans help!??... I am from the UK... I am so interested for next year!!👌🇬🇧🇺🇲😁
Can't wait to see the WRX VB Version. 🙃
やっぱカッコええ
The passport was the best car this year
I wonder how well a SnoDrift veteran would do if/when they contest an event that allows studded tires. I feel like the hard-won confidence on this event would be a huge advantage with better grip.
Stoked on LC back again, love seeing Semenuk's talent, but miss Trav and of course Ken; competition at the top is lost without them, give Bucky a seat or something!
Anybody know where to get that lower grill guard withe sti on it ?
Is there any full run footage of bonfire alley?
Bonfire Alley is really 2 corners. The episodes really gives you all the angles.
I wish I could compare my times in my FedEx truck on those same roads, compared to their times! 😂
Parabens😅
Been a little bit since I’ve seen Launch Control! Just out of curiosity, does anyone know why they got rid of the iconic narration through these episodes?
I think there was mention of it before last season. It makes the turn-around and editing much easier and *quicker*. More like a proper race re-cap video. While I loved the narrated episodes, they came out MONTHS after the actual event. If you have v/o, you have to write a script. The v/o artist has to read it (often they're not even in the same local area as the editor(s) and can even be in other states), all the v/o tracks have to get cleaned up and matched, etc.
@@wyrwolff ahhhhh that makes sense! Yeah, I recall the old launch control videos being almost like a tv show for us and we’d see the results months before it got released
I love Subaru in Rally racing and Black Rifle Coffee Co. #brcc
When Keaton said Jesus Christ.🤣
👍
@subaru what happened to the commentary?
Loved the video, but I gotta say a few things: 1) I'm sad that Ken is gone and that it appears to be a very uncompetitive field in the championship. 2) Similarly, having only one car is a shame because even if the other cars can't keep up the two drivers can compete against each other. 3) Don't like the new regulations with weaker engines and almost no aero. I like cars going fast. Still exciting but still I'm a little disappointed.
This season's gonna be boring af is this is the level of competition throughout. Gonna miss Ken even more.
expect more top teams to join after the first round. Also Brandon is a snow specialist. You can expect on gravel the competition to be on a more level playing field.
@@bowesmediainc8767 That's a good point. Thanks for the production
Really going to miss Semenuk, Pastrana, Block... Battling down to the second for wins..
ARA just won't be the same
Subaru should get back to WRC....
5:20 Why doesn't anyone help them? Looks so weird... Here in Europe, every rally, helping drivers is a big part of the experience as a rally fan.
Elbet bir gün.
I drive similarly on the Dragon in my STI just staying in my lane and there is no snow😢
Just can't get into this new launch control. It was the reason I started following Subaru on CZcams, and it's the reason I'm not following after today. It's sad 😢
Not using the new vb chassis 😮. Looks like racing tradition no new sti or engine for sti, not going to use new chassis with ej engine.
Less aero and less power? Who makes these rules!?
The series is trying to balance performance and cost. With few factory teams in the mix it’s hard for privateers to find the budget if high end aero is involved.
ah yes "its going to be a competitive field" 45 seconds up within 3 stages, what a joke of a series lmao
still waiting for the VB WRX to be a rally car by VSC
Less music over the talking and especially engine noises please. Come on, we want to hear the cars not cheesy royalty free music.
If I can find a team or a way to race you boys better watch out. To me your not fast..... I'm from Buffalo. This is child's play
nothing much interesting if u are not WRC...
