Default Anyone got a real wheel drive scooby?
I follow the born to race film on Facebook and a follower has put a post about his rear wheel drive scooby.

Would rear wheel drive be amazing? I've asked him to join and to put a project thread up

Rally schools convert them. Punters prefer them

That's daft and doesn't make sense.
They should just get a car with DCCD if it HAS to be a Subaru.
Otherwise something like a MKII would be far more appropriate.

Phil Price Rally School use them that way, and said everyone just preferred the RWD. In fact they use Impreza sports (138 bhp?) on Sweet Lamb

Do you have a DCCD equipped Impreza?
