Car Info: 02 Subaru WRX w/ JDM Spec C

but although petter is not great at tarmac he still has to drive and be good at it. tsuchiya may do touge but it isnt his life style. i still say solberg would win, just cause he his work is the wrc.

and rich i think i would like to know both situations with and without co-drivers.

opinions please!

what? the Spec C comes with the carbon fiber S202 wing. it's also 300lbs lighter. then the other imprezas. has roof vent, no A/C. bigger (12 liter) water tank for i/c sprayer that's mounted in the trunk. and other goodies

Solberg was obviously taking it easy in the road car. It didn't appear to have a roll cage or any other safety equipment.
Funniest part was the little japanese guy getting all excited about the big wing.
