Last October, rallycross driver and pro-skateboarder Bucky Lasek threw down a challenge for Subaru WRX, STI and BRZ owners: he asked them to submit videos showing off their driving chops. Subies responded in droves, proving they can drift, roll, donut, and even drive through fire like pros.
Only five contestants were deemed worthy of joining Bucky for a top secret event at an undisclosed location: Troy "the Killer" Miller, Tim "No Fear" Near, Will "the Widow-Maker" Lucas, "High Speed" Chase Wilson, and "Bobbing" Bobby Whitely. Subaru and DoubleURXXX Productions teamed up to give the winners an epic experience with the 2015 Subaru WRX. It involved building a WRX from parts and plenty of open blacktop.
The resulting documentary, "The Chosen Ones," (above), profiles these lucky Subaru enthusiasts, and pulls back the curtain on the new WRX. As Bucky reveals one surprise after another, it becomes clear that these guys are living out their ultimate rallycross fantasies. But only one can take home the ultimate prize — so check out the video to see which driver is the Chosen One.
And stay tuned — the five finalists will be stopping by next week for a live conversation.
