Oro Station, ON – The Subaru WRX and STi models are synonymous with the World Rally Championship. This is where Subaru made its name and forged its image as a rebellious maker of rebellious sports cars.

A unique event
To demonstrate the uniqueness of this duo, Subaru invited us to Oro Station, in Ontario, to the site of a future circuit that will be 4.2 km long (the same distance as the Gilles Villeneuve circuit in Montreal). The Oro Station Motor Circuit is still under construction and is not yet paved, which gave Subaru the opportunity to improvise a rally-race stage on dirt to show just what the WRX and STi are made of.
