Really? I don't know too many of them, but I recall hearing "Kumakobo" announced a lot during the finals at Formula D in Long Beach last April, but there weren't any Subies in the finals. (There was an Evo VIII, but it broke right before go time.)

I think that orange one is RWD, especially if the engine is mounted like that.

don't worry all the $$$ is in the endorsements. everyone'll throw parts at him and his car/crew. as for tires, he probably has sponsors, and if not, he will.
