Reigning American Rally Association presented by Kubota National Open 2WD champion Ryan Booth secured his first outright rally win at the top level, taking advantage of a first-day Brandon Semenuk crash and fending off his fellow RC2-class drivers for the overall spoils. Booth, who switched from a Ford Escort Mk2 to a Škoda Fabia RS Rally2 for the 2025 season, was fastest out of the blocks on Friday and had led a four-way battle for… Read More →

Brandon Semenuk has explained the “stupid mistake” that led to his crash from the lead of Southern Ohio Forest Rally. Triple American Rally Association presented by Kubota National champion Semenuk had won all four of the events so far in 2025 prior to SOFR, and a degree of pressure was removed from his shoulders after the first street stage, when Conner Martell was ruled out due to a back injury for co-driver Alex Gelsomino. After… Read More →

Growing up as a let’s say less than athletic kid in the late 1980s and into the early ’90s, I never won anything. In those days, there were no participation awards, and nobody was giving out trophies for collecting Marvel cards or mastering video games.

A purist’s delight in a crossover world In a car market dominated by bloated crossovers and increasingly complex performance machines, the 2025 Subaru BRZ tS feels like a throwback. It’s not fast by today’s horsepower standards, it doesn’t have torque-vectoring all-wheel drive or a trick hybrid system, and it doesn’t even come with adaptive suspension or a head-up display.

The 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid, one of the brand’s most anticipated SUVs in a long time, began arriving at U.S. dealerships a few weeks ago. When we got to spend some time around the hybrid model, it didn’t appear very different from its gas-powered donor. However, it has some substantial differences beneath its familiar design. Following our time with the SUV, these are five ways the 2025 Forester Hybrid is better than the gas model. Read More →

The first Subaru WRX STI debuted in 1994 and took a full decade to reach audiences in the United States. The last STI bowed in 2021 but is still greatly missed. Subaru does build the WRX in its current 271-hp form, and there’s a tS model with big Brembo brakes and Recaro seats, but we’re still waiting for a proper STI variant. Now, some tantalizing news out of Japan suggests such a car might be… Read More →
