On another note, I would say I'm a mid-schooler.

i just sold the OBS, and even after years of jumping it, broadsliding it, hitting multiple deer, hauling drums and putting 150k miles on it 3 years, it still started first turn, pulled hard and generally pleased the hell out of me. Seeing pictures of that RS made my heart ache just a weensy bit. haha

What's amaziung about that photo shoot was that it's almost, ALMOST, everyone in the BAIC at the time. That's like, 70% of the club members. When was that shoot, Late Spring/Early Summer 2001 right? I remember it being just before hamilton, or just after.
man... the first hamilton meet. I wasn't there either, i wasn't even driivng yet. but i remember that thread/pics/stories...
this place has changed a lot in the 3 years i've been around.

Stromung and scoobysport were king.

I remember that Deck! Alex and I installed my springs in my GC8 on that deck. But i seem to remember being under it finding parts that dropped through the cracks, then actual labor on the car 
Yea those were the days... When you could only get Speedline and the UK BBS wheels in the US cuz no one else made crazy subaru offsets. And the only place online that sold subaru was SPD in socal. Byron claimed he had the Fastest GC on the planet. I sold Chris his first S-AFC, look at him now
and Brucelee WAS the king of hamilton...Now he's mah b!tch
____________
The GC8 will always be a Classic Import. It was the originator of a generation. As the Impreza evolves, (with the EVO arch rival) It'll all comes back to the GC8... when Mitsu got SPANKED in the WRC :banana: The 22B is the 'Mclarren F1' in my heart.
