Yia, my car runs right ~99% of the time. Imprezya, I'm backing out this round. Hope you make good runs at the Rock and don't come back with a broken car, ok? There's some guys here who still may want to join you.
Mr. F, I can't believe your backing out. You got these girls all pumped out for nothing. I guess they won't be missing out much anyways after all its just the F'ster. C
Hey Imprzya... does your license plate say 'imprzya' or something like it?? I think I might have seen you/your car at Rock Falls earlier this year...

I could go run my car to see how quick it is, but I know it will not be running at maximum effieciency and could tear up the tranny if the car jerks too much. I will go on another day after I install a new O2 sensor (thanks to BP Subaru for the 10% discount!) and get the high idle corrected. I'll post a new thread here when I'm able to make it to the Rock. }

Start another topic on idle control and I'll post my reply there. I've got too much to say to completely hijack ms. imprzya's thread :I
Ok, I think 8:30 is too early for us to meet =( We live like an hour and a half to two hours away... I think that we could make like 9:10-10 a.m. But, I understand that that might be too late for you. So, if you want, you can call me 612-703-2406 and we might be able to figure something out, like maybe just finding eachother there or maybe just meeting your friends? Whatever works best is good for me. The thing is, I can't check back on the forum tonight, I am not going to be home so I can't respond to anything like after 6. Sorry! So anyways, just call me or let me know or something. Maybe we can just meet there, too. Like I said, whatever works for you is good. If anything, I will just look for you! BTW my name is Katie if you call. But I'm sure I will see you tomorrow! Oh, and that's good your friend wants to talk to my bf about his rx7.. he will love that! He is trying to find out more info too. Ok bye bye!
Have fun at the Rock! I hope to see some pictures on here from those who are going. I love drag racing, but I have to wait on this one.
Well, i got to meet wrxchic and i a great time for my first day at the track. My best time of the day was a 13.87 @ 97mph, thats ok, but my driving could use some work!
That's a good time with your modifications. You've made a lot of boys jealous today. What did you cut on your 60'?
My 60ft with that time was 1.98 and yeah, i was the only girl driver there, they kept asking whatever guy was closest to my car about what i had done to it or whatever, oh, and i had one guy rip on my speedmonkee heat shield because it "cooled down the turbo way too much" :???:
LOL! It's funny to see guys' mouths drop when they see a racer take off the helmet and find out it was a girl who was whoopin' serious butt. In their defense, regular girls don't run fast on the quarter mile in a quick car, so they automatically assumed that your car was owned by a male. Maybe you can put on a "you just got passed by girl" decal on your rear bumper. ...and yes. You could get about a 13.5 if you work the 60' to around 1.80 seconds. The best I could muster out of 5 tries was a 1.87, so you're not too far behind me.

Wish I could have been there to see the looks on their faces, and hear about how having heatsoak makes a car faster ;-) I'll probably be going out on Oct 9th with my slow car :-( -Jordan
Hey, im addicted, im prolly gonna go on the 9th again too. There were 2 subies with MN plates. An sti (blue/gold) with header/up and dp and a black vishnu stage 2 rex. The stis' best time was a 13.4 and the vishnu rex's best time was a 13.6.
Dang it, I would have been the quickest Scooby that day if I went... I'll try to correct my car for the 9th. Hopefully, I can get some members to go for their first time as well.

Apparently he was only getting 14lbs after recieving his ecu back. Boy is he pissed! You can expect him to back back at the rock before the season is over. C
I'm sad that I missed it, but I couldn't miss the IDF benifit... It was a nice weekend so I would have brought the NSX, because my WRX is still stock, and is going to stay that way except the radio untill I get some more cash. The NSX wasn't cheep . I hope to make it to the one on the 9th.
The 9th is an Import day. I may post at the last minute if I'm going or not. I need to take care of my issues.
I'll make my decision by this Thursday. I have to take a look at Neefs tint job to see if I should bring my car in and get it tint or not. If I end up getting a tint then I won't be able to go with you guys to Rockfalls.

I regret to say this but I won't be able to attend Rock Falls this Saturday. I've been trying very hard to keep my mind on track with work, school, and my girlie friend. I don't think my schedule is Subaru meet-friendly anymore.
Sorry NO FLY ZONE for moi, but I think my friend with the Black Vishnu WRX might be going, if not with his Scooby than with his NOVA on the fun day. Enjoy, C
I'll have to check with the wife, but I might be able to go. I got all my fall chores done around the house last weekend when she was gone, so I racked up some brownie points. I have a friend with an RSX-S that I might bring along as well, that is if I come along. I will post here when I know for sure. Darrick
