Did that to a friend of mine in my LGT. He was saying how a 2.2 auto is boring, etc. Took him out to my favourite paved twisty back road. Changed his mind in a hurry after we drifted some corners. I've given the offroad dirt treatment to my friends in my old lifted GL too. People are amazed what a subaru can actually do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSooby Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 I know.. even for n/a.. they make close to NO power but what power they do make is I'm the right rpm range and good for cornering... our cars are perfect for just a fun DD or a trainer for and sti or wrx... not to.fast but just quick enlightened to have fun... i like quick so its perfect... its like I told my buddy when he was looking for a 500hp car.. "don't do it, you'll wreck it and get hurt. Quick is fun, but fast is just dangerous when in the hands of an 18 year old kid." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

987687 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 You should go to a rallyx event. It's basically what you did against the clock. It's a hell of a lot of fun. Here's me rocking my GL at an event. I beat two 2.5RS's that day http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z314/987687/rallyx/void0-12.jpg http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z314/987687/rallyx/void0-14.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSooby Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 Oh god how I would love to! I haven't had time, with school and everything. But I'm going to basic training for the usage this summer. Hopefully Gonna come back with some extra cash. Use that for a newer DD and the turn the LGT into a rallyx car:) I've been wanting to do events for a long time! I kinda wanna build mine a little if I do tho. I have issues making enough power to get out of first gear goin around corners. Can't ever get it sideway enough in second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Dude, my GL has an OHV 1.8 that pushes 80hp at the crank. Don't complain And it can still beat a couple of 2.5RS's. It's all how you drive the thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

987687 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 What if you use the most basic form of the youtube URL? http://www.youtu.be./watch?v=IgU8iXnipAQ Mobile device should be able to watch a youtube vid. If you really want to have a lot of fun playing in dirt, go to a rallyX. I've never had so much fun in my life driving around in a dirt field. It's also really great at teaching you car control because you have cones to drive around. Ask the pros for tips, they're usually more than happy to tell you how to drive the field in the morning when everyone is walking the field.

altimaunit01 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I thought about doing something like that. I was kind of worried about looking like an idiot. Plus I have to see where the dirt track is round here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSooby Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 That is my stand point exactly^ I want to do rally cross and Autocross but I feel like the second I ahoys up everyone will laugh at me lol. My car is bone stock at the moment and I'm only 18. So everyone's first impression of me is gonna be "THIA KID DUNNO $#¡+!!" hahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Well, there's a stock class. There's stock, prepared, and modified. Stock is a great class for learning. Hell, I learned in mod because my car is so non-original. The guys running that class are really cool. And we don't do any laughing at stock people.

iSooby Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 How modded does your car have to be to be considered mod class? Cause I've got an intake and am Fiona be using 03 wrx struts and springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 If it's scca, that'll probably put you in prepared. The class right above stock. I think to be mod you need full coilovers, transmission swap (to a more desirable tranny (6mt, 4.44 5mt, etc)), bigger engine/turbo. My Gl is mod because fwd to 4wd d/r swap, tires, lift, etc, etc. It's hard to run a car in stock, as ANYTHING not stock will bump you. So most cars are in prep. Obviously OEM style replacements are allowed in stock, but technically, performance brake pads bump your class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
