Episode #23 – Introducing the Zenkai Time Attack team and hired hotfoot Thomas Smith. Plus, a review of the 2010 Suzuki SX4 Sportback: Time, it seems, has not cast favor on this little car.

  1. does anyone actually have one of these? im looking for a awd cause i live in a town where there is snow almost all winter. so i guess im looking for a review that doesn’t suck if anyone could help me out? i cant get a wrx so its between this or the hyundai veloster turbo with chains i like something a little funky so yea some feedback would be great

  2. My guess is that the plastic in the mini is no less quality than most us product

  3. “There is nothing else out there on the market like it.”

    Yeah you’re right. There are no other small, front wheel drive, 5door, compacts on the market. Not a single one.

  4. 182 hp………. I was thinking more about 370-450 hp……. They should bring out a WRC countryman edition……

  5. i just wanted to make sure didn’t mean that the only benefit from AWD is getting though snow.

  6. i totally agree. i felt the bias as soon as he started talking about it. people who own this vehicle that i know love it and say great things about it. one even auto crosses his and handed a fiesta its ass on the course.

  7. You guys are pretty biased towards the Sx4 Sportback. I guess the host wearing a Subaru t shirt and then ragging on Suzuki says it all. My opinion, try to keep your personal bias out of objective reviews and maybe I’ll give you guys a thumbs up.

  8. Thanks for watching, we look forward to hearing more from you in the future!

  9. You guys suck, quit already. You know nothing about rally and you spread rumors and half truths like the National Inquirer.

  10. Come see Thomas and Zenkai Motorsports powered by Crawford Performance’s new beast on 5/22/10 at Super Lap Battle Las Vegas! This will be the debut event of the new STI TA STI.

  11. Definite touch screen fail. The plastic that holds the GPS doesnt have enough stability & your fingers bounce right off.
    The best way to use the GPS is to pull it off the support (it is removable) & input your info. Not a driver friendly feature.

  12. Thomas is a super humble and down to earth guy. He also has endless talent in everything he does. Good luck man you will do really good.

  13. Hope he does well in Time attack and moves on to bigger things! Heck it’s my dream, and I’d love to see someone else succeed as well!
