I saw the printout, the only run that was on BOLD print was a number that I hadn't seen. I was fooling with the camera, posing for the pics that a young man was shooting at the finish line of the SVX, etc.

Time will tell.

All I know is that the times I ran in OT's car were closer than they have EVER been to the Moran Brothers missel.
That is a big improoovement.

It will be interesting to see what happens at the Pumpkin carve.....

Thanks , again, Tom.

PS The belt stayed on for the 4 passes AND the 380 mile drive!

Big improvement NUMBER (2)
Great seeing you again, Jerry. PM me your email address and I'll forward a video clip of you on Sat .....

We all want vids!!

OT -- it sounds like you've got "wheel hop" on the passenger side front wheel. Did you check the CV joints for leaks? Are the front springs equal in "rate"? I thought you said you put custom spacers in -- you might want to see what happens if you go back to a "stock" configuration.

Harry - so, did you get a plaque for "winning" GS??

As YT said, "and a remote control WRX to boot". I haven't tested it yet, but it is probably faster than your Black beauty .....
Sorry, Bill, I could not resist - The devil made me say it!!!!!!

Dave (goes by Aquacow on NASIOC) who drove a maroon RSTi in Street Mod at the Challenge, took almost 1,600 pics at the event. He'll be posting a link tonight which I'll post in this thread (says over 1,500 of them came out great!!!).

Here's a pic Rebecca took of his car in action (full STi swap into a GC 2.5RS - engine, trans, suspension, brakes, interior, etc):
