Especially if you take into account that the tires are seriously holding this thing back on the track. A new set of performance tires cuts off quite a bit of time on that track.

New tag line for this car.

Anyone remember the best car of 2012 drag race? I think that is the tag-line exactly as he said it.

Is what James May said true? That the brz to gt86 ratio will be 1:9

It would make sense. I've always wondered why production has been so limited so far.

You might be having the same issue I had when the BRZ section disappeared on me. Next to the FT86CLUB.com logo at the top of the page you'll see All, Scion FR-S, & Subaru BRZ. If Subaru BRZ is highlighted then you need to click on All and you'll get the FR-S section back.

I'm sure our 'prius' tires would've been considered quite sticky 10 years ago. Although I'm not sure when did they test e46 m3. NSX-R test was in the wet.

I wanna watch this at work lol, anyway to add captions?

That might be their U.K. sales distribution.

Someone seriously needs to make "He who shall be last, shall be sideways and smiling" into a window or bumper decal.

Or a BRZ startup screen superimposed over Jeremy Clarkson's smile from the segment.
