VT11x: Betty
Driven by skateboarding legend Bucky Lasek in the 2013 and 2014 GRC seasons, this STI – affectionately named “Betty” – earned three podiums and two heat wins, including a silver medal at the 2014 ESPN X Games in Austin, Texas. Wrapped in the iconic Subaru PUMA Rallycross Team livery, the legendary “PUMA Zombie-Cat” graphics were a crowd pleaser and combined with Lasek’s fluro-orange color scheme was regarded by many fans as one of the most striking and memorable Subaru Rally Team USA liveries.
Betty was on display in the museum at the Vermont SportsCar facility until it was gifted to Lasek in early 2023. It is currently being brought to Subaru Festivals across the US, and Bucky has plans for more fun with Betty in the future.
