Default My Track toy for croft

Well as i have prov sold my big spec RS500 that i have used at croft the last 3 years i thought i better buy somthing

Well i bought this , but thought it far to good to trash , its a very good spec car but i like it so bought somthing else today







Here is what i bought

sorry RS owners









Never owned an EVO before , and thinking about it only ever driven a 7 about 2 miles

I hope there as reliable as everyone says as im either going to brake it at croft ,,Or break it when i get back

Should make a good car for the Croft weekend Paul but i dont think it will convert you.

If i remember rightly these dont have the AYC set up so 4wd power sliding should be the order of the day

dont limit yourself to evos,, remeber that impreza 6 speed boxes sell for 2500 as a kit with the shafts and diff

oh and jap boys ( apart from me) spend stupid money for no real reason

there also aint a "proper" subaru breaker on scoobynet at the min,,,, generally part time bedroom lads who aint got a clue

and the cars are getting SILLY cheep to buy these days but cost of parts are the same generally

That evo looks suspiciously like my mates old one he sold a few years ago, nice track toy, prefer the escort though, even if it's crying out for a better set of rims.
