OLD Article about the local Subaru Group
 

Don't ask how I stumbled onto this article in the old Reno SCCA newsletter...But check out page 5, the story called " Having it an a WRX". That was around the time this club was formed, back when I was one of the young guys... Good stuff. I'll never forget that day at RFR with Gary and his huge wreck. Wow.

WRX Old days

I didn't know Debbie had a WRX, shows how long I've been around.

That is a cool article.

Awesome Matt! That's Scott's, your's, and Tyson's cars in that photo, right? I like the part about you guys going on a Norcal group drive.

Yeah, the Blue WRX is Scott, the White wagon was mine and that was Tyson's black one. We helped Gary load up the missing body parts into his trailer that day after a terrible wreck with a Honda Civic.

damn. that was when i first met you guys.. 2003.. how insane.

Ah man, I miss that car.

It's spirit lives on in my car. Something something your old sidemarkers something.

Where's the article about us winning a free WRX from SCCA for a year, but not accepting it because of their retarded insurance rules? :unamused:

So you all drove like hoodlems back in the day too! I knew it! haha cool article that road is a fun one.

Haha, I don't know, some time later into 03-04?. Also, it mentioned the seccs car show at the Atlantis we put together for SOA...That was quite an effort.

That's was an understatement.

For those of you who don't know, it waw an all nighter with lots of high profile installs!

There are still a ton of pictures from NORPAC in the gallery:

good find, (or good recall) +1

that was way worth the read :)

Ditto!

Oh, mine too!

Funny thing, at the time an Audi and Stealth owner, Dean talked me into looking at the WRX as a sporty car that I could upgrade to from a Dodge minivan. :lol: Forget the modding, in its stock form it could compete in rallies, autox, track events, and be an awesome daily driver too - what was not to like?

Good find, Matt. This article was one of a series that we submitted to SCCA, that ended up netting our region the 'free' WRX for a year. Scott was right, though - it was too bad we couldn't comply with the retarded insurance requirements to actually take possession.

Thanks for the gallery/pics Scott. my fav of course is this one. http://www.seccs.org/gallery/Car%20P...39;s%20car.jpg

It's so old even I'm in there...

So I am assuming this was before the 20s? :lol:
