The blue 2.5RS is gone, and this has replaced it.

IT'S NEW - :D , the payments don't suck, it's got a lot more power than I'm used to :twisted: and I don't have to borrow my mom's Forester every time I have to haul something that's larger than the trunk of a 2.5RS.

I decided that a WRX wagon would better suit our purposes on a daily basis than an STi (or a 2.5RS), and it would still be at least as much fun to play with as the 2.5RS. The STi would've been cool to have, but I definitely don't regret getting the WRX.

I actually made an adult decision... :shock:

What class will you run it in? I hear all the good drivers will be in D-stock next season.

Scott - who wants Kevin to cry when he sees how quickly a stock class car will kill sticky tires :)

I'll run it in SO4, of course. 8)

As for stock-class cars killing tires, I didn't have any decent amount of camber until this year (when crash bolts were legalized), so I know all about killing tires.

I'm going to try really hard to NOT do anything that's not DS-legal. And unless everybody else in DS is running R compounds (& actually beating me :P ), I'll be on something ST-legal.

Might even decide to run an event or two in STX & put the hurt on the national championship-winning STX WRX with a DS setup. :lol:

I suspect Shawn will be running R compounds, and I know Sally and I will be setting the Celica up properly (rear shocks, R-compounds). The first event you get a trophy with a number higher than the one Sally gets will probably motivate you to spend some money :)

Making comments like that should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

In regard to "Pretty Pictures", the Fall Foliage looks very nice. :D Can't say anything positive about the cars or people. :wink:

You should have gone for the Cayenne that was chopped off at the headlights in the pic.

Speed + cubic feet = there is no substitute.
