SCCA / Subaru Newsletter is out!
 

Remember that phone interview I did w/ SCCA? Well, the article is out and available here:

http://www.scca.com/Subaru_Email/index.html

It's pretty funny to see what made it into the article and what didn't. I talked to the author for about 30 minutes or so, and I'd guess that only about 1/3 of what we talked about got into print. Also, some numbers that I made up (and told him that I was just guessing on) were reported as fact, and some of the things I said were paraphrased in the quotes, but the article gets the gist of everything right. All in all I think the article is very good and even plugs the track day! :lol:

The best part is the quote about JC. :lol:

Here's what the author sent me:

Hahaha. Nice work man. That is some good exposure! The JC quote seems to be missing something, it makes it seem like you don't like him :lol:

good job though.

Hey, nice article. Yeah Scott, I know what you mean about not having control over what gets printed! I had no idea that I fit into the median age group at 27....I had figured I'd probably be among the older set. Still, I have to side with JC about old-school :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'm not sure how much "trash-talk" I have in me though....great copy!

nice read! well done

edit - I'm 28 =)

To be honest, I made up that 28 yr old avg age off the top of my head. I figured, I'm 26... almost everyone is right around my age... we've got a few members around 21, and a few in their 30s, 40s, and 50s... so I guessed 28. I even told Curt that I was guessing, but printing "SECCS guesses their average age is 28" looks lame. :lol:

The JC quote is missing the smilies that we'd have posted on the message board. I was literally laughing while I told the story. Curt asked me if I had any anticdotes from the club, and the first thing that poped into my mind are the stories that JC's told me about his street racing days... I figured those were unprintable, so I just told Curt about JC and his perpetual resistance to change. :lol:

what about the damn 17 year old kid... who has more balls with the ladies than anyone? :lol: :lol: :lol: But im guessing i wasnt even around then :) Its pretty sweet

That does sound FunnAy, and NO :lol: :lol:

i lied to my mom about working to go to the meet tonight... what a good kid

Thanks for NOT printing shit that could get me sent to jail. :P :lol:

P.S. You're a dead man Scott.

C'mon man... 4000 more people now know that bug-eyes and turbos are for pussies! I'm just helping you to spread the gospel according to JC! :lol:

Just makes me sound like an ass, it doesn't point out that bugeyes are for pussies. :lol:

I'm 21 BTW, I turn 22 in April. :P

April what, my b-day is also in april :D

Well, I guess we can't sue for libel. :P

I.......I...BELIEVE!!!!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Great article...

Hey Scott, if you haven't already done so, you should grab a full copy of this, and the Norpac Convention article for the SECCS archives in case they disappear...
