  1. Nope. Here are the pictures of the car I took yesterday afternoon when we arrived back to the shop https://www.facebook.com/MarymFields/posts/10154806560639701
  2. Actually the person I was racing in the video was my husband driving my 2015 STi
  3. Yeah, sadly when the part failed it caused a LOT of damaged and the car caught fire. Fire wasn't too bad but it's bad enough that the car has no power what-so-ever now. Just poking around yesterday I could only see one small wire to the coilpack that was completely destroyed by the fire, so hopefully it's just a "get a new harness and move on" kind of thing. God I hope. Not sure when I'll be able to pull it apart as we dont work on our own cars during business hours, so it's gonna be a slow process.
  4. Hey guys... Sorry I've been MIA recently from the forums because we've been doing a LOT of traveling and racing lately. So to clear a few things up. In September we traveled from Texas to Chicago to race at Subaru Nationals where I FINALLY broke into the 9's with a 9.9 @ 144mph pass in the 1/4 mile. Here is the video, I'll post the time slip when I get to work.. I have been to some local 1/4 mile tracks after that, but I haven't improved much due to limited runs and poor track conditions. (I ran a 10.0@ 145mph the weekend after Subaru Nationals, but the next pass I did that day was on an oiled down track and I almost went into the wall so I decided to pack it up and head home.) As far as what happened to my car this weekend... I was racing at the WannaGoFast 1/2 mile event (an event I look forward to every year) and sadly on the second pass something failed. At this time I am 99% sure I know what failed and why, but I'm not posting details until I pull everything apart and I'm 100% sure. I also want to reach out to the manufacture and work with them before I post up. I will say that I have seen this part fail on other high hp subaru recently so I wasnt too terribly surprised when it happened. (super disappointed but not surprised) But the weekend wasnt a complete waste because our other shop car went 180mph in the 1/2 mile and broke the record for fastest subaru in the 1/2 mile. So that's pretty awesome! -Mary
  5. I'm so sorry. I dont know how I forgot to post this stuff on here. lol My 1/2 mile run makes me the fastest (top speed) legacy in the world now I believe I am the 3rd quickest in the world (maybe 4th) but quickest in the US. Currently upgrading a few things in search of 9's. (upgrading my driver mod as well... Husband and I are going to split seat time this year)
