Friendship is a wonderful thing, especially when it leads to new hobbies and interests. When my best friend Tyus introduced me to rally racing, I knew we had to try and see a race. We had heard of the Dirtfish racing complex in the Snoqualmie Valley and decided we should make our way to the mountains and go see what was up. On July 26, Dirtfish hosted Northwest Rallycross Fest 2025, put on by the… Read More →

While automotive manufacturers tend to remain secretive when it comes to sharing the special sauce that makes their respective models their own, every now and again they understand that working with another established brand can be a worthwhile exercise in shifting some more hardware. Porsche has been involved in many of these different collaborations, and in the late 1990s, it decided to add the Subaru Legacy to its list of projects. The call Porsche got… Read More →

Developing a car is expensive, especially when it uses new technology like electric motors and a big battery pack. So it makes sense for automakers to team up on developing one or more vehicles. Subaru and Toyota are doing just that on a series of EVs that began with the Solterra and bZ4X duo, which arrived for the 2023 model year. In the coming months, the two brands are expanding their EV lineups to three… Read More →

The Subaru Crosstrek has never been a fast car. But when the most recent model was introduced in 2024 with extra weight and no added power, it became even slower, like 9.5 seconds to 60 mph slow.

Screaming down the forest rally stage at Goodwood Festival of Speed with Travis Pastrana at the wheel of Subaru’s WRX ARA25 rally car is probably as close as you can get to the forrest defenders scene in “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.” My stomach gets cozy with my spinal column as a blur of green leaves and black tree trunks blur past the windows. A few “wahoos” escape, along with some violently delightful horn… Read More →
