  1. Can someone run JF1GF4858WG813404 for me? Trying to decide how old the parts on a '98 Impreza wagon might really be (found in a local wrecking yard). Thanks.
  2. I got a tip today from another Subaru enthusiast. He saw my headlights and got a bottle of Meguier's Plast-X (I'm sure I murphed the spelling but it's available at Shuck's and other auto parts stores) out of his wagon and within 5 minutes we had polished both headlamps and side markers to "like new" shine. It sure beats a polishing wheel and 15 minutes per headlamp.
  3. More pics from the Rallycross. Thanks to Alaena, Cody and Ben for these. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showgallery.php?cat=983
  4. More pics from Ben Bradley: http://www.benbradley.us/rally/07-03_WACo_RX/index.html
  5. Sometimes it pays to not read all your mail early in the day. Good one Rob, you had me going but I was reading on, feeling the love you were getting and thinking how I could add to it. I'm glad things aren't as black as you made out although it could certainly have been true. Glad to see you might have the RX ready for the next rallycross.
  6. I tried to tell you that. Again the offer of a place to "recover" on the way down or back is still open. But Craig is correct, early and late in the season the course is quite slick due to all the rains we get. In mid-season, the water truck is used to "keep the dust down" so the neighbors don't get ticked. Bring some friends and with luck we might be able to rouse some interest to bring a few of us north to B.C.

  9. Now that I'm awake, here are some pics I took during the morning session. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showgallery.php?cat=983 Here's Alaena in her new rallycross Impreza. Notice she has one of the better lines through the corner.
  10. Or you can get a rebuilt distributor or vacuum advance from http://www.philbingroup.com/fhhistory.htm

  12. Yes, that's who you think it is. Yes, that's me, cone destoyer par excellance. The tires are great, I steer into the corner expecting the car to slide a bit, instead the tires take me directly into the cones. I'm a slow learner; I finished 5th in class (PA). Charles won his class again. And my son, Jrach, took MY wagon and won Modified AWD outright! The tires were great; the Tabors are going to sell a bunch of these.
  13. This Sunday, March 25th, is the first ORG rallycross of the 2007 season! I am excited to announce that this year will be the best rallycross season ever that the ORG has conducted. We have made improvements to the program such as a new TAG timing system that will debut at the May rallycross, committees to help with better organization to make the events run smoother and on-time, Black Sun Racing Services will be available at all the rallycrosses with snacks and tire/vehicle services, and ORG rallycross T-shirts that will soon be available. Even if you've never been to a rallycross, it will be a memorable event to attend. The National Rallycross Achievement award will also be present as a reminder that we are the "national standard" that every other rallycross program looks up to. This is a great achievement and 2007 will even be a better year to come. I would like to get a head count of everyone who will be available to volunteer some time at the rallycross on Sunday. No experience necessary, all help is greatly appreciated. I will need: Set-up crew Registration Timing/scoring Tech inspectors Possible water truck driver/operator Someone that likes speaking in front of crowds to help with both drivers meetings Please contact me via email if you are able to help or contribute in this weekend's event. See you Sunday! April Smith Rallycross Manager. April's email is asrmotorsports@yahoo.com If you want to see quality rallycross, run for the first time, spectate or just plain see what it's about you won't have a better opportunity than this Sunday in Hillsboro, OR. http://www.oregonrally.com/Event_Detail.cfm?EventID=506 http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=hillsboro%2C+OR
  14. Looking good for this weekend. Rain yesterday and today; three days of sunshine; and 50% chance of rain on Saturday. Great prep for the rallycross weekend. :banana: :banana: :banana:
  15. Yesterday's PRG rallycross at the ORV park was a ball! Lots of rain prior to the event made for a slippery course even before the rain started after lunch. Three runs before the lunch break and two after made the 30 or so entrants very happy. A seemingly simple course looked to be lightening fast but the awkward placing of some huge dirt piles were a subtle distraction and prevented taking the "easy" line. Qman and Zapar were first and second in M4 class in Qman's super Impreza with about a 1 second spread in a 5 run total. Jrach was third in M4 in my Impreza (lucky for me he wanted to run Modified). Cfwdfw and I were one and two in the P4 class with a 6 second spread for the total. All of us were helped by having the right tires for the muddy conditions. My Silverstone Mudders were just awesome. Anyone get any good photos?
  16. Great buy. I wish you the very best of luck with it as well as many years of ownership. I'm pushing 187K on my '91 Legacy wagon and it's still one of the best cars I've ever owned.
  17. For those of us who try to anticipate weather for RX. This link is to local info for Hillsboro, OR. Rallycross school on 3/24 and rallycross on 3/25. http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=hillsboro%2C+OR
  18. For those of you praying for mud on this Saturday's PRG RallyCross, your prayers are being answered. http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=98557
