Thank you all for the comments.

Posters are for looking, cars are for driving. Recent track day to put the sled through its paces. Blue Impreza is a friend's rally car.

Hahaha the best way to learn is the hard way, unfortunately. Thanks very much for your comments.

As for cost, take this build with a grain of salt - our buddy in CZ (with the blue car) owns a garage and buys used cars wholesale for parts and I get wholesale prices on performance stuff so that helps a lot.

Hahaha now that you mention it, it does look like good ol' Gilles' lid. I wonder how he'd drive our sled.

Thanks so much for your kind words, glad you're enjoying it.

Just a quick and fun update, not really Subaru-related. The EVO (blasphemy!) hill climb car with a slight change in livery...
