Question SCC.. Ultimate Street Car Challenge

I was just looking at SCC's entrants for this past USCC and other than a GC8 Impreza (Yay! My fav suby!) I have failed to see one STi entrant yet that I can remember. With all the dedicated Subaru Tuner shops in america, there should have been at least ONE right? There are those that say the STi is the superior AWD and the EVO is crap, but I see two entered, not to mention a first Gen. Eclipse. Whats going on here? That's all right though, because we all know how won. Hope to see at least one next year....



*edit* By entrant, I mean one that made it into the final 10, NOT a car that got submitted. Just wanted to clear thing up before people blow up.

Yeah...pretty sad huh? Only i-Speed's GC8 made it!

2 Evos though...STis should've at least had ONE representative.

Hope that single scoob holds up under the pressure!

I know, those guys would go bananas...

But seriously, there are shops with serious tuning ablilities and the dough, or at the minimum, sponsorship to back them up...they should be able to build an STi that would absolutely lay the smack down....

The cool thing about that GC8, is that it looks like your plain jane stock 2.5rs with a bolt on turbo kit...hehe

Maybe I'll see if one of the Indianapolis shops would sponsor me. Of course, they'd have to help me 'prepare' by fixing my engine and tranny.

Quality doesn't matter a bit, it's audience. SCC may suck or it may not, but folks buy it.

My absolute favorite was when they had the Tiburon that had two engines and automatic trannys individual set up for the fronts and rears. They threw the front into reverse and the rear into drive and burned out! They said the car started to spin on it's axis! That was the ****e X 4!
