February 7, 200521 yr http://www.ccrsolo2.org/forms/ax1_05_fin.htm Scroll down about 2/3rds the way..."Street Modified" is the class. Look for the "18YR OLD SUBARU RX" in 2nd place...behind the 600 HP EVO equipped with 255/40/17 race tires. I was on Ecsta V700 215/50/13's in the RX, running 15 PSI on all my faster runs, stock boost on the first one. Warp3/Shane is in the 4th place 2.5 RS....he runs 225/50/15 Victoracers (a must stickey'r tire than the Ecstas) and the car is SET UP with Groundcontrol/Koni coilovers, sway bars and the like...Cobb cams, borla exhaust...so its putting out 200/200 at the crank. 9.5 lb flywheel and all that good stuff. the 98 civic was on R's as well, and is supercharged...its quite fast. that 92 kinda snuck in there...never seen it before. All 3 of them very good drivers (Shane's been doing this for 6 years now I think) the 240 was turbocharged, and from the accord down everything else was on street tires. RX slow? Nope. Its fast, and competitive.
February 7, 200521 yr Great job! But like always in autox, it is the driver who wins the race, not the car. And by this I mean that you are an amazing driver! Imagine what you could do in an STi!!!
February 7, 200521 yr Big time Kudos - Great job, I bet there are a lot of jaws droping tonight ..... And they say we shouldn't stick with our old Soobs !!!! Mine ain't that good tho!!!
February 7, 200521 yr Author Great job! But like always in autox, it is the driver who wins the race, not the car. And by this I mean that you are an amazing driver! Imagine what you could do in an STi!!! Certinly its alot of driver....but the car did have alot to do with it seeing as how there were VERY experienced drivers in WELL SET UP cars out there....that event makes it official; I've been autox'ing for one year now.
February 7, 200521 yr Not to take anything away from the car, but it has been my experience that it is the driver that is the most critical thing in winning. You can have a car that is all set up for racing (I think you gave an example) yet it doesn't perform as might be expected, chances are it is the driver. Another example is that out here on the RallyX circuit there is a guy who drives a 4WD Justy, he holds the fastest times at most of the tracks, he constantly beats WRXs and STis.

Its not JUST a 4WD Justy however Prolly one of the most tricked out Justys in existance from what I've heard Well done WJM !_!
February 7, 200521 yr Author Thanks guys! But...Justy=1800 lbs....WRX=3100/STi=3300 lbs Big difference on dirt especially. Normally Shane is ~3 to 4 seconds difference in the Wagon vs RS....I get in shanes car and I am 1~1.5 seconds faster than him. This was the first time the RX went out in "full autox trim" since I put it together...adn tis got the same setup as the wagon had, plus different springs inthe back.
February 7, 200521 yr Its not JUST a 4WD Justy however Prolly one of the most tricked out Justys in existance from what I've heard Oh yeah, super tricked. The white hub caps must add 100HP and torque to it. Try bone stock!!
