Ali @ ESX offered me a job driving the hauler two years ago...I wonder if I can still get in on that :) I think I'd do it for free at this point.

And you turned it down because...

Because I didn't want to quit the job I had at the time, and being an over the road truck driver is a tough life.

Edit: I'm bummed we have an autocross the same say as the LB race, I would actually try to go if it was a free weekend. To make matters more difficult, Scott and I are in charge of the event that weekend, so I'm going nowhere :D

Like living on the road in your truck basically? Yeah sucky.

Do it for a some beer and a megaphone. It will help Gary feel like he is part of the party.

I've always wanted to rent a big truck and load the back with couches, beer and chicks and go to a concert or somthing. Matt, can you go ahead and set that up?

We need a trailer and it's on. :lol:

Let's do a roller disco like they did on the Jackass movie. :lol:

That was brutal.

Damn, another one. Mt. Hammy is the same day as points event #9 this year. :( Hopefully Seca and/or Sears Point is on an unused weekend for us.

Looks to me like the Nasioc thread is the best to follow the progress of the car...

There are some new pics up today. Gary, I didn't know you were wrenching on the car too! You are the man.

Hey Gary, I noticed in the NASIOC thread that you're going to a Perrin FMIC on your car. Since I'm running the same thing, I'm wondering how you're routing your brake ducting. Are you using intakes in the front bumper, or on the lower splitter like you did on the USTCC WRX? Are you going to be running 3" ducting? Are you routing it below the frame of the car, or have you found a location through the engine bay and fenders?

I'm going to be trying to fab up my ducts this weekend... I had a decent 2.25" set of ducts coming off the stock fog-light buckets before the FMIC, but I'm sorta at a loss for what to do now that 2/3's of my space is taken up by intercooler now.

Trust me, I live for the day when I don't HAVE to wrench on a car. If and when I get to that point, I probably will continue to at some level. I really get to know the guys on the team that way and they know that I have just as much invested in the prep of the car as they do. Also, I think it gives me a little more empathy for the car. I'll burn it down if I have to, but otherwise I take it easy on the equipment.

"G-Diddy" :lol:

We don't know yet :)

We just received the new body kit last night around 8pm. So we'll have to see how it fits and what space we have available to us.

One thing to consider is that we're not going to have the same constraints as a street car, meaning we can run the ducts as the lowest part of the car by far without worrying about speedbumps and stuff like that.

We'll take pics and you'll see what we come up with.

Awesome, pictures would be much appreciated!

I'm not too concerned with my ducts being the lowest part of the car either, since it's only street driven to/from the track, and to the occational Subaru meet. However, I still haven't found a good location for mounting the intakes for the ducts... I guess I'll be playing with it this weekend and we'll see what I can come up with.

Scott, have you seen this thread? This should bring you to a post that addresses your situation.

Do you have any mods Gary?
























:P

Looking very good. Is that all the front splitter you're allowed in the rules?

Friggin' hawt!

Yeah that's bad ass. Can't wait to get drunk and yell at the toob when you race.

The car look sweet, love the rims.

Wow, that picture looks poster-isable. If you guys ever get some made - I'd like one.

That's hot. [/Paris Hilton]
