Lurking no more
After today I decided I should probably really get on the forums and kind of introduce myself.
I'm Pete, and I drive the 2003 PSM WRX. I’ve met a few of you through the couple meets I’ve been to and at the autocross school on the 3rd. Lets see I go to UNR and currently live in the dorms. I got my WRX as a graduation present, but it was a bit late because I got it Sept 11th 2004. I really wanted a Bugeye and was pretty much set on a white one until this one came along. I got it with 8700 miles, and I am now pushing 19500. I bought an Accessport and flashed to Stage 1 a few weeks after I got it. Just this week I installed my Espiler JGT500, and Bobby (Bob Danger) appropriated an HKS SSQV for me. I had tons of fun at the autocross today, and I am sure I will see most of you the rest of them. I usually can’t make it to the meet because I work on thursdays most of the time. I managed a 56.725 today thanks to Tyson, but on my last run couldn’t find second for my 56.5 and had to take the 56.8 I just wanted to say Hi to everybody, and sorry for the long post. |

Re: Lurking no more
The accessport does help a lot more down low. I was amazed with myself on my last run. It felt like I was going sloppily fast, but pull through the finish and somehow managed that 50.9 Thanks for putting on an awesome event and the great course design. I need some help deciding on what class I should be in. Mods should be coming pretty heavlily once summer starts. By the end I am hoping for Up-pipe, Turboback, Cobb stg 2, Rims and Tires, KYB AGXs and Eibach Springs, Rear Swaybar. I could do STX if I used to correct map right?

Pete I honestly think you should hold out for a good set of coil-overs. You and Bobby both improved greatly this weekend. I wish my car would have held together so I could have raced.
Also, I'll send you the pictures tomorrow bud. |

So, I have a question for you Carson kids (no offense, I just haven't had the chance to meet any of you face to face).
Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm just trying to match screenname with name with car/face Forgotten - Silver Bugeye Libila - Old School Civic that Auto-x'd with us Bob Danger - Galant? Anyone else I'm missing? I know I've said a few words here and there to you guys, but never actually got a chance to really chat. BTW, I'm Nick, the guy with the 05 Legacy.
