What car were you in?

I have 03 WRX swap with an STi Intercooler and a Turbo back. So around 250 - 260 hp at the crank? I never dynoed, but lots of power is lost through the awd drivetrain.

For suspension I have Megan Coils and a Quick Steering Rack (1 turn from centre full lock, 2 turn overall)

I was all over the place when it poured rain, but that was fun.

Ill send you a PM.

Thanks again.

I didn’t see any other white wrx’s there, but there isn’t anything too exiciting near my gas tank? maybe some scratches near gas tank and the bottom of my bumper… but…thats nothing new 😉

I think its fate that i didn’t sell the 240 all the more reason to keep it and have two nice rides.  
…

Nice pix Mike - they turned out really sharp

I love the one of Gregs car just chilling… with the blueish grey background…looks really pro

Awesome day for sure tho!

Another great event by CSCS!!  
Thanks to all the staff who stood out in the rain!  
Lots of track time and plenty of fun & learning in the rain.  
Well worth staying up all night to do the engine swap!

Props to all the Drivers who toughed it out in the rain!

Thanks alot CSCS, Bob ™, and everyone came out and stayed who made this event possible. Although it rained and people complained I thought it was a great track day, we got a whole lot of track time and changing conditions always improve your skills. I will definately come out to more CSCS events and will see you all on Oct8th!

Oh and yea training circuit is much better in reverse like we had it. Status max.

We’re just glad you guys had fun Vlad, and we hope to see you out at the next event, and hopefully it’s not raining…

Next event I think the some of the staff are going to bring a wack of tires 15’s mainly, used and discarded from some local shops for you guys if you start running out of rubber. Chris was saying that he had a manual mounter that he might be able to bring. This should give you guys more tires then you can burn off for next event :).

Really sorry I missed this…got close to Hamilton and called the track and they told me it was canceled…  
So I made a detour and took the wife to Niagars Falls…

Now I know to go rain or shine next time.

There is a guy I know who makes QRacks for Subaru’s.

I was actually talking to some of the 240 guys if they wanted to donate a rack to me I can see what I can do regarding talking to the guy about possibly making a QRack for you 240 guys.

Right now he strictly does Subaru Racks, I believe he has 2 ratios, 11.5:1, 10.2:1, the quickest is the 10.2:1 which is what I have.

If you’re wondering about quality etc, the Subaru Canadian Rally team uses his rack (that blue rally car that was there at Cayuga has the same rack as me), and various Rally Teams over North America uses his Rack.

However, these are not cheap.

If anyone has more questions about it feel free to ask, next event I can show people what its like if you wantto ride shot gun.
