B4SubieGT Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Anyone heading to the Subaru Challenge in Houston 11/03? I just signed up for the event. $35 I guess is worth the photo ops and swag. Who is planning on attending? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenonk Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 it's worth going! im not sure how competitive you guys are, but if they do the 1st in PAX award as a free track day to drive the 2008 STi out on track, then it's worth competiting.

HouSpecB Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 it's worth going! im not sure how competitive you guys are, but if they do the 1st in PAX award as a free track day to drive the 2008 STi out on track, then it's worth competiting. I'm going and will be trying hard to get in the runoffs. I not really competetive for top PAX so no worries there. I didn't get any photos in '05 and last year I had to cancel for work so I'm really looking forward to it. It's definitely worth going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
