wyatt is so good in front of the camera! some people just have it. so familiar and friendly right out of the box

BTW long pressing traction control after you put it into expert mode, until the sign disappears from the central screen is what completely disables traction control (not the ABS though). With that setup the ABS will interfere only in extremely excessive braking in track days, certainly not in snow braking

Wyatts back!? Let’s go dude! I love this segment

Great to see another awesome installment in this series with Wyatt. Would be cool to see how the GR stacks up to the 2023 WRX.

I feel like the fact Wyatt is back should be in the title, this is so great

An afternoon at Team O'Neill is on my bucket list now.

Regarding your observations that "50:50" appears to be more of a baseline than a hard rule... The car's AWD system is one of those where it's essentially FWD with a clutch connecting to the rear axle, which is overdriven / geared faster than the front, meaning 100% lockup actually creates RWD (sort of...more like RWD while the front tires are braking)- so your observation makes perfect sense. Why? Consider the two extremes the car can observe front/rear and how the "center" clutch behaves: - Front wheels on pavement, rear wheels on ice = in order to achieve 50:50 torque distribution, the car must nearly fully LOCK the clutch to the rear (because the front is guaranteed high grip and it needs to try to get the rear to match it) - Rear wheels on pavement, front wheels on ice = in order to achieve 50:50 torque distribution, the car must nearly fully UNlock the clutch to the rear (because the front is guaranteed low grip and it needs to try to get the rear to match it) (this is of course not how a true 50:50 center differential would behave) So, the GR Corolla/Yaris clutch transferring torque to the rear is *always* adjusting to achieve a given target (such as 50:50). I doubt that the system is so accurate and fast at achieving this to the degree that an experienced driver like yourself *wouldn't* notice some torque split changes; I believe you're noticing the car struggling to produce that 50:50 target consistently. I also suspect that the system won't even actually seek the target torque split if said target creates extremely low torque output (like in the scenario in the second bullet above, it probably doesn't actually unlock- instead I bet it prefers creating a more forward torque split in order to achieve more grip / overall torque output)- if this is true, then the actual torque split could vary wildly, guaranteeing you notice.

WYAAAAAATT !! WE MISSED YOU SOOOO MUUUUCH !!

I've lost count of how many GR Corolla Videos I've watched. This is by far the best one, the one I actually wanted to see, and it's in my backyard!

Hey wyatt!!! Glad to see ya here

WHAT THE HECK!? Wyatt is back?? SMART move, Team O'Neil!! Wyatt is the reason I subscribed to your channel in the first place. He is indispensable and irreplaceable! Welcome back, Wyatt!! P.S. Bald guys for the win!!

Wyatt, my dude! Always a treat to see you pop up on my YT feed. I'd love to spend a day in a GR Corolla, they look like fun little go-karts. Perfect for QC weather.

Happy to see Wyatt’s back! 🤙🏾

This narrator is so happy to be here with this Toyota GR Corolla! Love seeing the positive enthusiasm and energy

Wyatt Is back! This channel wasn't the same.

Ordered one of these in Australia a week or so ago. Will be a long wait but from all the reviews I have seen it will be well worth it. Fantastic video!

Wyatt's smile when presenting in the first shot just tells you everything

good to see Wyatt back!!

Whoa! Wyatt is back!!! Sending all the love all the way from Malaysia.

love to see Wyatt back

Good to see Wyatt again he was missed here for sure.

YES!!! Good to see you back. Watched every episode, multiple times. Looking forward to all new ones!

Awesome to have Wyatt back!

i run hakkapeliitta R3s on my bugeye wrx. amazing tires even on gravel in a 245 width. just wish america got more of the nokian tyres line up.

Yes! Wyatt is here again. You are the heart and soul of Team ONeil man

Good to see Wyatt!

I can't wait to be there in July!! I have been watching these videos for a couple of years dreaming of attending and it's finally happening!

Great to have you back!!!

Glad to see Wyatt back. I missed him.

Yes! Wyatt is back! The only reason I watch these. Where have you been superstar?

Great to see Wyatt back! Fun car too but I wish we had the GR Yaris in the States instead

Wyatt, so god to see you back behind the wheel, you do this car justice, buddy over in the UK, his neighbour has one and just loves it, says it is just fine as a daily and no issues either since he took delivery of it in his 3rd year now, he said the European version doesn't have the same ABS setup as the North American cars do, I guess its just our standards here are different from there, I live in Central Canada and figured we would sell lots here and haves tons of Toyota dealers in our city and when i went into a few dealers about getting one or even a chance to look at one, they said their allot was only going to be possibly 10 units a year total allocation of all models of GR Corollas for the province and if i factory ordered one it is up to a possible 2 year wait and subject to model year price increases which is understandable having spent a number of years in the vehicle industry myself, My local dealer told me he can get Supra's easier than a GR Corolla, we get severe winters in Manitoba and this would be the perfect car for my needs, nothing better than 3 pedals and this maybe better than a WRX or Maybe the running gear comes from one in some cases 👍

Wyatt's back! Is it my birthday and Christmas all rolled into one? I'm so ******* pumped! Let's go! I would love to see a Crosstrek in this series.

Haha! I've been waiting for this moment, so good to see Wyatt back!

Wyaaaaaatt!!! We missed you! So glad to see you again!

What a surprise! I did not expect you Wyatt!

Wyatt! Good to see you again!

Amazing driving man that was very enjoyable to watch!

Glad ur back. Can watch this channel again now :p

Good it see you back Wyatt

Always an important question to ask. Glad to see the Team give the GR corolla a shakedown.

Drove one of these in Core trim, wow what fun!

I thought that was Wyatt in the thumbnail but I had to see it to believe it.. Nobody else has the cool factor like this guy - the whole reason I watch the channel! Pleasure to have him back; will be tuning in for many more!

Long time no see. Glad Wyatts back!

Great to see Wyatt back!

This is the most interesting gr corolla video yet

I thought GR meant 'Goodest Rally'. Glad to see you back!

Welcome back, Wyatt.

I love these videos hope to attend the school one day!!

First time I've heard of the gr corolla.Looks good

Welcome back Wyatt...Would love to see a 2022 wrx will it rally :)

Can't wait to come by your guy's place someday! I live way in British Columbia of Canada, but I immensely hope to be there eventually, definitely on my bucket list!

Didn't know he was back making videos! Awesome to see!

We all know the answer but there's nothing better than watching Wyatt beat the fuck out of cars. Good to have you back!!!!!!!

Beautiful driving. I’d love to see a WRX update with the new ‘22 model. I bought one this winter and it’s been super impressive in the snow and at the autocross course so far. It’s my 5th WRX/STI and the new 2.4L is a massive improvement over the last 2L FA engine and the 2.5L EJs I’ve owned.

WYATT IS BACK!!! ♥️🤓

you should see my face!!!! the Gods of KZfaq served this up because i'm looking at picking up a GR Yaris... but man! when this guy walked into frame! I don't even know him and i'm SO HAPPY to see Wyatt again! That's awesome!

Finally someone showing that it can drift around in the snow = fun as in the dry I haven't seen be able to hold a drift in the dry but I only care about siding around in the snow.

I live a town over from you and really enjoy these videos.

Welcome back Wyatt!

Great to see you again. Keeping busy I assume. It's been a while since I've wanted a new car. This might be it.

When you push to get the EXPERT mode, keep the finger pushing the button. Itll make EXPERT dissapear but everything will still be disabled. That mode disables even more stuff, maybe ABS too.

I’ve lived in oregon & in the valley my whole life. i would love to visit this place 🥹

Yay Wyatt! Welcome back to Team O'Neil yourself!

Gotta love a car that comes with cheat codes. Hope to see more of Wyatt on the channel!

Welcome back Wyatt. We missed you. I think I'll keep STi though.

Love the New Hampshire Pilotis that Wyatt is wearing!

Welcome back wyatt!!!

I MISSED WYATT SO MUCH

WELCOME BACK WYATT! 🎉🎉🎉

Wyatt is back!

I stopped watching this channel when Wyatt left, now i got recommended this video. Awesome!

Yeah, you know if it has GR in the name it's gonna be good. Also, surprised to see Wyatt came back, but also I'm definitely not complaining.

I’m loving my gr corolla!

Way to go Wyatt! I like to Imagine that the Subaru Justy is smiling down from car heaven at the Corolla GR, since its got a similarly sized engine less turbo and modern tech.

OHMIGOD! WYATT is back?! Yasssss! ❤🎉

i half expected wyatt to explain his absence in between his second to second timed rally appraisal not sure why other than he probably could. glad to see he's back

Wyatt's BACK!!

Wyatt's back! And he's rallying in fricking mountaineering boots! That's hardcore!

Awesome, great to see Wyatt back on the channel. Curious question, this car vs 2016 Ford Focus RS in that same timed run stage on dry gravel, which is faster? 😬

Wyaaaaaaatt ... So happy to see you back.

This is probably the best video online of the capability of the GR.

damn, is that "why it knocks" ? welcome back !

The OEM AWD ECU absolutely has lots of inputs from various sources. Steering, angle, speed, tps, etc. I had the same sensation. The syvecs AWD controllers makes its a much more direct feeling and analogue experience. I expect it will be out in a few months.

would be interesting to see this compared to other awd cars on the market today (WRX, Golf R, etc)

yay wyatt is back!

Love these videos! You all looking at the VB chassis WRX? Still pretty new but would really love to see your impressions compared to the previous models :)

Wyatt's back!!👍🍻

WHAT!?! WYATTS BACK!?!? HELL YES

Welcome back Wyatt///

Welcome Back WYATT!!!

Wyatts back, lets go!!!!!

Oh my GOD! Wyatt is back?!!?

I love this so much

Please do the Corolla again! Fav car

Dissapointjng that you weren't able to test this beast of a Corolla in the summertime...🤔😥💯

Yay Wyatt! Pay that dude a lot!

If the modes in the Corolla are like the Yaris ones, expert mode has still stability assists. Try holting the stability off button for a few seconds. If expert mode isn't shown any more, but the stability warning lights are still on, all stability (except ABS) should be deactivated. I would love to hear, if this works on the corolla too, and if it rallyes better without.

Will a BRZ rally???😊

Alright! Wyatt is back and hopefully your videos won’t be so boring again!
