John,

You must be very pleased - I'm looking forward to hearing your views on whether you still believe that a Sport can keep up with a Turbo with a proficient driver behind the wheel!

Enjoy!

Ben.

Ben, i know thats the case, i did it for 2 1/2 years! I have even passed the buggers at the nurburgring and that is a very high speed circuit. The sport is an amazing performer in everyday road conditions, i wont be going any quicker on the road in the STi, i just have more in reserve. It will be a lot quicker on track though.

I paid £**,***, after i have done a couple of jobs on the car it will be worth a lot more than that! It will be absolutely imaculate in a couple of weeks in every way.

I love this car, i have noticed people drive diferently around me to how they did when i was in my sport though. Half just move out of the way, the other half act like complete ***** and sit right up my ****. Whats that all about?

They made 1000 of these, mine is #171, i have no idea how many made it to the UK though, probably a lot less than the TypeR version i would think.

It's one seriously stunning mota now though.

I put some P1 front wheel arch spats on today to help protect the sides and keep the crap off. Took 5 minutes to fit.

it's easy to be consistent when you tell the truth Ben.
Shame you didnt get to sit in my sport, it was a real eye opener to anyone who did.
The STi is very special, but you cant really use the preformance on the public road, it should be awesome at the ring though!

I'll bring the old Sport along to the ring, then we'll see if your claims of it's performance against the Turbo's are true.

Me vs You

John, I'll just have to settle for a ride in the passenger seat of your STi...

Ben.

P.S. My Sport is going very well - Prodrive goemetry, MY99 16"ers and Toyo Proxes T1-S now. Not much, but its still lots of fun (as you know ). See pictures of the DGM Sport in the "Camrbidge Evening Meet" thread.
