As for the D/V, some of these guys wanted to test out the new equipment so leave them alone
Donuts, didnt see any as i was in the theme park with my family but whoever you are there is a time & a place for that & the NBO isnt one of them
Hardcore, i drove all the way from m/well(scotland) along with another 6 scoobs that were there to enjoy the day !!
<Rant mode off>
Ps since when did the NBO become an Enthusiast only event ?
get a grip

Thanks Strider. Would appreciate you posting me the link to that forum SUBWRX1@AOL.COM.
I hope people dont think my little drift up the grass was deliberate as the grass caught me out with grip levels. I promise Hand to god. (SUBARU PRAY TIME)

You was no danger to anyone....but you can quite clearley here me say "there is going to be an accident here" on the Video as the Blue Stickered drifter came into shot. I think people are right it is a public event and shouldn't really be done, I know it is tempting being given a field. As I said though you was not a danger..infact you where the only one doing dougnuts..proper ones that it..

Well done to LordHarding and his team for organising it for charity, I really enjoyed last year but I'm sad to say I'm glad i never went this year - pleb's nobbing around, bits getting stolen from cars etc etc by the sounds of it
If i wanted that I'd go to my local "crooze" - it's sad that Impreza ownership has gone this way
All IMO

... well i have to comment! absolutely amazing to see so many different styles of subarus! sorry... i was the one with the 'multi-coloured/rainbow' wagon! there were some fantastic subs and there were some really ****e ones! i'm not gonna brag or cry - people have their own tastes & opinions - some like the chromaflair look some don't - i personally reckon there were subs on that field that absolutely destroyed mine in terms of looks (classics with black quads/bonnets - subtyper (crazy dragon) - sticky mickys - the list goes on...) - before this event i wasn't too keen on the new age BUT my mind has changed, especially since seeing maddy's (those 19" rs4 lookalikes in chrome are chronic) and stevechaps as well as some others. one thing i walked away with that day was the fact i knew for sure that my next car would be a wrx sti ver 5 type ra v-ltd (t/v reg)!

at the end of the day who cares who owns or drives a scooby as long as THEY enjoy their scoob as i do emmencly. to steriotype someone because they mayby are boy racers is wrong. at the end of the day they are having fun and have worked hard to do this! i thought this was a community!!!! its sad to see people getting flamed just because they are different. sort it out ffs

is there any chance of asking the bloke to defend/substantiate his statement rather than everyone turning it into a "he's done a tony" etc etc

Its a 02 STi RA spec c.
Wind up windows etc... fixed diff 50:50 ratio etc
Its what a group N rally car starts life as..
Its less road biased, more competition focused.
I know there arent many in the UK.
325BHP and its done 12.8 1/4 mile at York.
Its being transformed with a 2.5 block.....and Roger Clark motorsport too!
