Thread: hot rod subaru

Tweet

We went to an all Subaru road challenge today at the Subars/Toyota factory I work for. Nothing but Subarus allowed to race and it is run on the factory parking lot. These guys and gals come from all over the country to run in this parking lot in Indiana, Subaru has a very devoted crowd of people that love these cars. I saw plates from 5 states away. This is a whole different breed of hot rod, but all in all the end result is the same. Squeezing all you can out of your car and hanging it all out. Some have in car and on car video systems to tape thier runs from multiple angles. I was surprised at the amount of female drivers there were. Some of these people are serious when they come and pull 4 slicks from the trunk and back seat and swap out tires to run the coarse. There was probably 150 cars that showed up to race against the clock. I drive alot of these cars at work and in stock form turbo model they have 265 to 305 HP (depending what model) and weigh about 3400 to 3800 lbs, all wheel drive independant susspension,. We make a spec B model that has an all bilstien susspension with a turbo, they really come alive after about 3000 rpm too red line. Any ways here are a few pics from today.
