Scion Canada's FR-S Track Day
 
Hey everyone, thought I'd share this vid that Scion Canada put together... Kinda cool to see some honest reactions to the car.

Cool! That will be me every time I drive my FR-S 2:09.

Cool! I was at that event. I was afraid I was going to see myself in the video, but thankfully, I did not. DjDATZ and trish07 were also there.

This event was hosted by Scion Canada. Of course they will only show the positive comments. It's called marketing.

Uh oh, the woman at :47 who said she had to compensate with her movement. Reminds me of my Mom when she used to play things like the Super Nintendo. She'd move and twist her arms as if it would somehow help out.

SUB-FT86 08-10-2012 08:59 PM

I guess me and her is different but I never felt the GC steering to be loose. If it was the slalom wouldn't be about 69.3 mph in IL for the 2.0T

I took at as she meant that she was sliding around in the seats since they are not bolstered like the Twins seats are. Twins seats are amazing to say the least.

I'm not a big GC fan but I always thought the side bolsters in it were more than adequate. One of it's better features really. I'd be surprised if this is what she meant but who knows.

More than adequate for what? The track or the street, cause she is on the track and that's a different ball game.

The FR-S has some of the best bolstered stock seats I've sat in for a car in this price range. They were better than my Aftermarket seats. I'd put money on it though, that is what she meant.

Enemies 08-11-2012 06:12 PM

For track. I didn't take it out on the track but I didn't get the impression at all that I wouldn't be able to stay in my seat if I did. Same for my BRZ. Haven't taken it out on the track yet but I don't get the impression at all that I'd need to switch out to grippier seats or something with better side bolsters to stay seated properly. Who knows, I'm a bigger guy and I sit in both fine, maybe the GC is a looser fit for her smaller frame. The BRZ and FR-S seem to fit everybody just fine.
