Thumbs up Nurburgring Video of Subaru BRZ Coupe / Subaru FR-S / Toyota FT-86 Shows off Handling

Happy to share with our members the best video yet of the Subaru Coupe / Subaru FR-S / Toyota FT-86 getting flogged during testing on the Nurburgring.

The prototype seems to be exhibiting great handling - staying flat and showing little roll or slide through the turns. It's not easy to judge speed from a video, but it certainly seems to be carrying good speed through the turns.

We also get the best listen to the prototype at full throttle yet.

Be sure to watch in 1080p mode.

Nice, though the vid does have some crazy interlacing issues

That's something you can't tell by an external video. You don't know the intended line the driver is meaning to take.

True but it looks to go very wide about :48 second mark. On the other hand the wear on the track makes me think that is just the best line.

might have been covered before, so apologies, but it's left hand drive? I thought the Japs would build it right handed first, for "their" specs.

Is that normal for that much positive camber on the front outside wheel under heavy cornering? But otherwise it's looking great.
