Default Newk Rally *GIF of the Drift that Killed the RS and Updates

**DISCLAIMER** this was copied from DI since i'm lazy and didn't want to re-write it some dates or times may be off due to the fact that i started the other journal a while ago
Alright so i thought it was about time to start my journal

So I bought my first suby July of 2007 it was a 2002 wrx came with a HKS Carbon-ti cat back sitting on 17" Racing Heart Evolutions.





I had bought a suby planning on getting into rally bought it was so nice i didn't want to mess it up. and did a couple auto-x with it



Then one faithful weekend i went to bullhead city and right behind my friends place they where building a new neighborhood so i went for a drive out there it was my first time getting my suby dirty





a couple months later i had a Toyota Tacoma cut me off and i slide right under the back of him.



No more then 6 months later the car was stolen right in front of my new apartment.

Then i ended up buying my 2.5 rs and couldn't be happier I bought it on a Saturday then on Sunday i took her directly to Gorman to see what she could do and i couldn't find anything short of the monster hill climbs that could stop her.









That was Oct. of 2008 then in April of 2009 i entered in my first rally-x at Glen Helen







I was hooked! since i've competed at Johnson Valley and the infamous Cal-City event !









The work I've done to the car so far is replacing the passenger rear strut which i bent at the cal city meet last July. (Thanks again Louie)

Then last Thursday i took the car to Gorman and had my first "off" went into a turn and hit some silt on the out side ...slide wide into a pole
