boxkita Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 A regular truck with dollies (they all carry dollies with them) works just fine. A lot of people think that the only way to tow a Subaru is on a flat bed. So they request a flat bed, and then end up waiting 4X longer because there are less of them. No need; just make sure the tow guy puts it up on dollies and you're good. it's a prestige thing. A wrx would be fine being dollied, however, lgt need to be on the bed. Riding high, looking proud.

nealkubitz Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Bought a VF52 yesterday with 14k miles on it. All to go with my new engine. Short story is, metal chunks and bits in pan & lines, Turbo *COULD* be compromised, decided to be better safe than sorry. Guess I will have a LegaSTI when its all done :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I have good news and bad news :-) If you wanted to purchase ICY Racing's turn key LGT Wagon racecar, its been sold. If you want to see it run a local track, you're in luck. It s been bought by a guy who completed his novice season with ICSCC last year. He may be running it in ICSCC's ST class, local autox, and other events. No, it wasn't me. I pinged him on FB to see if he would post here. If you FB, check out the "Autocross Club of Central Oregon" group for more details. Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope its an easy fix. :lol: Cracked the clear coat in quite a few areas, but is isolated to the bumper itself. There are some scratches through the paint too. Maybe I can use this as an opportunity to have them respray the entire bumper. It needs some love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
