Hello, My name is John.

I started off with an 06 STi and im on my way to getting pretty serious with auto-xing in it. Which really turned me on to the idea of rally-x.

So I ended up getting a 1999 2.5rs Coupe in AW :) I recently auto-x'ed it, to get aquainted with the car and found some maint. related problems that im working on to get it running reliably. After which I plan to get into rally-x wherever i can :D

Looks like a great site, been doing a lot of reading and hope to join the ranks of a dirty impreza driver soon!!

John.

WELCOME!!

Once you rallyX, you will be hooked, hardcore! Get your STi out there and get it dirty too!

It only took me one RallyX (I did that before I ever AutoX'ed) to be totally hooked to the loose stuff (not what you are thinking).

I love to get my Impreza Dirty!!!

John, welcome to the forums. were happy to have you here! I was pretty into autox for a while (joined the all subaru Autox team "Team Blew" out here in california) etc. Its great fun running the STi.

Im on the same program as you too, getting a 00 RS as soon as i can find one, thats going to be the full time rallyx / rally machine. Then maybe ill track the STi. shes sad from all the offroad abuse!

thanks for the welcoming!

Im currently a Team Blew Member myself #470, going to be running CSM with the STi and DSP with the RS when i start doing champ events.

Unfortunately the STi is currently setup with coilovers and large sways front and rear for autoX and i dont believe it being 2in off the ground would fare well in the dirt :)

Nice! well if youre on Team Blew then of course youre familiar with Fontana! i was #205 for about a season or so.

(The STi before it was "converted" for rallycross) I think it will be a blast to get some nice street coilovers and go back to the tarmac for some fun!

Leave the offroading for the paid off car... ;)

The STi? I dont think that she is sad from doing what she was destined for........
