  • Passion for the STi

    You cannot call yourself a Subaru enthusiast if you don’t have any passion and cannot understand the importance of the STi.

    ….from a Subaru Ambassador that owns multiple Subies including an STi.

    Let’s get back to some technical, nerdy motorsport discussions.

  • Good show & content

    I’ve listened to every episode and enjoy listening to the guys.

    The audio has improved since they’ve started but there’s room to improve still.

  • Great podcast, but could be better

    Flatirons, please use microphones and mix the levels to match the intro. I listen while driving and it is extremely difficult to listen to the podcasts due to using a mic far from the speakers. It could be so much more polished and enjoyable to the listener by using microphones for each speaker. I recommend getting something like a Zoom F6 recorder, some mic’s and use the atomic function to ensure proper levels. Other than the technical audio recording aspect, I love the content.

  • Not a Subaru guy but…

    This is a great podcast. It may center around Subaru as a generality, but it’s mostly good in depth conversations around more universal topics - tuning, set up, driving, rally, hill climbs, and time attack/time trials. Worth a listen for any grassroots motorsport junkie

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

We talk Pikes Peak, Subaru, and the future of cars with Mike Kojima of MotoIQ
Q: Do EVs have a future where they outperform traditional internal combustion race cars?
EVs currently excel most in drag and instant torque, but for endurance and time-attack formats at altitude, the energy density, weight, and thermal management pose ongoing challenges. IC engines still offer higher power density and longer-term track viability, though battery technology and thermal management are rapidly evolving.
We talk Pikes Peak, Subaru, and the future of cars with Mike Kojima of MotoIQ
Q: What do you think are some advantages and disadvantages of the Subaru platform for racing?
The advantages are nuanced; the chassis characteristics and balance can be very favorable, but reliability and oiling have historically required significant engineering work and aftermarket care to mitigate issues. The FA24 is a step forward with better oil handling and a lower overall mass, but oiling and weight distribution remain critical challenges that need careful attention.
