He's not a 'noob', he's used to driving Le Mans prototypes and Super GT cars around race tracks, not rally cars around small touge courses. He was put in the rally car because you'd expect that to win, so with him in that and the more experienced touge guy in the road car it was to balance it out.
Not a bad effort by the Swift. Swift S1600 set up for a gravel rally driven by a driver unfamiliar with the car, equal with the Honda EG6 with a much better setup. Good battle.
Tarmac is not the Swift's strong point but still, give it to a rally driver and you'll see.. And what about the 2nd round with the Swift following the Civic, they didn't show the rest... :)
emmm 2 things... if this suzuki is drived by wilks the civic is owned, and this is not a WRC is an a s-1600, if the civic races vs a WRC civic is owned...
sorry i don't see it well... but 1 thing u can't say me not... the s1600 don't know drive it... he must to wait more to change gear an a s1600 can w8 to 9500 rpm... let him take Wilks or Sordo why not... ;) sorry for the error
Suzuki's have epic twin turbos that make 4.6 v8 look like shit ,I own a old suzuki swift that came with twin turbo 16v and it is a speed demon on the freeway.
che test del cazzo... prima di tutto si confronta un 1600 con un motore portato a 1800( immagino sia uno stroker ,quindi anche con parecchia coppia in piu..) poi la civic è in mano a un famoso pilota di rally giapponese, un pilota con le contro@@,quasi un icona da quelle parti(tipo un ragnotti in europa),mentre l'altro è un tester qualsiasi....
Nice video.love the in car shots showing them working while driving

VTEC Rulez!! Always the 'KING of the ROAD'.. Cheers!
the swift is using gravel or tarmac setting?

Richard McConnachie It's no more a B16b it's a B16 stroked to B18
Its not WRC, this is a Suzuki Swift Super 1600..But the video is nice anyway!:)

you must be blind in the vid it says suzuki swift S1600 , now i'm sure that's not wrc because it's S1600 that means FF and a 1600cc engine
Think the suzuki took that one! Even without LFB, give it to a proper rally driver and the civc will be miles off!
Suzuki Swifts Damn Smooth! Love it!
i really want those strobes in the seeker eg in my eg!
im not a hondaboy..but that eg6 is really powerful..

@antiLeixo Best Motoring's Touge Showdown.. not sure which series.. most of Best Motoring's show featuring Tsuchiya is about Touge..
wtf are you talking about... the Suzuki Swift is a WRC car thats what the title means, its not a WRC race obviously...
sorry i don't see it well... but 1 thing u can't say me not... the s1600 don't know drive it... he must to wait more to change gear an a s1600 can w8 to 9500 rpm... let him take Wilks or Sordo why not... ;) sorry for the error
good speed, not bad EG6 Civic...
Even just by looking at them, the Civic looks like a proper sports car, an FF sports car if you will, compared to that yellow grocery getter...
eg6!!! ♥
Keiichi had a bad day;) , honda would win;). JAPAN POWER 4 LIFE!
WOw fast EG6
B16B poking out 235 and it's light
Holy cow, and keiichi's trueno lost to this swift both rounds and then this eg just up beat that car.
Suzuki's have epic twin turbos that make 4.6 v8 look like shit ,I own a old suzuki swift that came with twin turbo 16v and it is a speed demon on the freeway.
