Tell me its not going to be a Radical!!!!!!!
I was thinking along similar lines as need a big power early Impreza to demonstrate the ECU and its usually cheaper to buy one ready made.
Lol at Gerry, first Dunc then Logan. If I'm going to be lonely I might come and join you

No, its wouldn't be a Radical! It would still be along the same lines!
As I say, its only thoughts at the moment, but from looking at various cars in the tinternet the idea has more legs than I thought!
Why spend thousands and thoussands on converting a standard road car to a competition spec car when there are proper cars out there that have all teh safety equipement etc already done, and then its only little bits to change to make it "yours" or take it to Sprint spec etc!
Also, this type of car will allow you to do single event rallies etc

So you have more scope of using it!

Hang on Andy, if 1B tyres are allowed in roadgoing next year, I'll join you. Then again Logan does leave his handbrake on at the start line, so he's maybe not such a threat :-D

I'm intrigued. Let me know if you come across any pre 96 Imprezas with built engine, big turbo, PPG and decent brakes you don't want

LOL! He only did it once. Lets not let him live it down though, obviously. Are 1bs going to be legit next year? I quite like the road tyred group.

yes, I like the fact you can have a true road going class, so the likes of Kim can turn up with a stock spec car and be competitive! But if they change the rules, then we will all go out and get 1b's won't we, so it will still be the same, just faster!
