Let's go, fellas. I'm in.


Maybe that'll inspire me to order those 16" rims and get them mounted. I'll have something new to show off.


Mike: how many are expected to attend?


Hey, we've got a lot of MDers here, so I expect you guys to show up if you can. You folks from VA (virgins??? oh, virginians) should come too!

Schweet! Now that we've got the main attraction, maybe the rest of the Edmund's locals will come out. Francisco, Phil (mmpkoppers): bring your GTs, I need backup! (and you can caravan from VA) Bob: you and your son can represent OBS, and bring Dave (dsattler). WDB (francophile), caravan w/Audrey's RS (email me for her info).


Aapologies for those I omitted but if you lurk or if your profile doesn't say where you're located, I missed you but that doesn't mean you're not invited!


From Jeff:
> Looks like we'll have a very strong turnout!


So that could mean anything. Audrey is coming from Philadelphia, and I think 10 RSVP'd on i Club.


Thanks for posting your support, juice!


Now who else will accept juice's "challenge"? If you want to ask questions of AJ, the almighty himself, this will be the place to be.

PS - Sorry juice but I was temporarily overcome by marketspeak.


PPS - LOTS of twisties in the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center -- it's a research farm that your (USA, that is) tax dollars bought, so use it! And it's minutes away from the meet.

Mike & juice,


Please take some photos of this meet and post them somewhere! I'd love to see how it turns out.

Uh-oh, expectations are high. I'd better bring some cool tools with me. Maybe at least a hydraulic floor jack.


KenS: I'm way ahead of you there. Will take both digital and 35mm cameras for the event. Hope to get some hot pics of the slammed Imprezas, which I imagine will dominate.

juice, If you by slammed you mean lowered like the one we saw at the DC auto show, you might not see any. The i Club'ers that have RSVPd are auto-crossers with mods like struts and swaybars (some have springs, maybe .75-1 in lower). Sure, a few are boy racers (sans the stickers) but some are just enthusiasts like you and me. We'll keep you posted, Ken. ..Mike

I guess I used the term loosely, but those will be plenty of fun to see regardless.


I wonder how far they can go, i.e. what kind of mods you can do while staying within the rules.


Also, someone at Subaru said the strut braces from the Impreza will not fit. Guess we can measure for ourselves.

It just so happens that I'll be in DC on the Friday before your MD shindig; another group of fanatics with which I have some association is assembling there for a little Cinco de Mayo bash. I was going to carpool down with a fellow (in his 1.8T A4 Avant, the excessive cost of which I was looking forward to pointing out to him at every opportunity) but since your event has apparently turned into THE place to be for a nascent Subie loon such as myself maybe I'll just drive myself down and cruise by on my way home.


I have to warn you, though; my car is S-T-O-C-K, and it is likely to be D-I-R-T-Y. I'm what you might call an old-f*rt car nut. Over the years I've managed to find a comfort zone somewhere between driving enjoyment and obsessing over whether or not I could see the reflection of airplanes flying at 60,000 feet in the shine; in my case that zone is wwwwwaaaaayyy over on the enjoyment side of the scale. So if I show up with a couple of dead bugs embedded in the nose of my GT, please try to remember that some of them "sacrificed themselves to the stars" at over 100mph before you howl in protest and light the torches. Tell you what; I'll try to run it through one of those automatic car washes (gasp!) before I get there, just to get the really big chunks off.


So, will this do as my RSVP? I just hope I don't fall off the waxaholism wagon by being around you folks. Been there, done that, used up all the t-shirts.


Grinning,
WDB

Great WDB! Just STAY AWAY from the auto car wash! (I don't like the "touchless" ones either -- too many scratches on the 93 Civic.) I'd rather see a dirty GT than a scratched GT. Car washes are ok after the 5 year anniversary You, juice, and I will be the S-T-O-C-K representatives. This'll do as your RSVP; I'll collect the names from here and fill in Jeff.


Grinning a bigger grin than WDB,
..Mike
