Jay gets a taste of the famous Scooby rumble

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter who you are, where you came from, or what you’re into - we all love cars. And even if you drive a tuned import and the guy you’re talking to is all about old school muscle, there’s a common language you share. Horsepower, 0 to 60, top speed… all that good stuff. There’s common ground out there in enthusiast land, and that’s exactly what you get in this episode of Jay Leno’s Garage.

For those of you who may be unaware, Bucky Lasek is an absolutely legendary pro skateboarder that came to prominence in the ‘90s and has since dabbled in motorsport with the Subaru Rally Team USA. As such, his daily is a 2016 WRX STI rocking 400 horses at the wheels, not to mention a host of other modifications.

It’s a pretty sweet ride, but it definitely looks out of place in Jay’s garage. But that’s half the fun, as the former Tonight Show host tries to wrap his head around the frenetic little AWD rally machine. The back and forth between Lasek and Leno is also pretty hilarious, as the two are obviously good friends. Hit play and enjoy!
