jaekl Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Dig the early turn ins. Cold snow isn't a bad driving surface. Here in PA we seldom enjoy that treat. How is balmy WI where a great many Sweds emigrated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEThomas Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 That is so COOL. My son and I have been studying and and talking about building a Rally car for the past year + to enter into Rally America series. http://www.rally-america.com/index.php They have a race in MI in January that is juat like the Sweden race http://www.sno-drift.org/ Now that we will be parting the XJ out in a few weeks we will have a free bay and just have to get back to final car choice so we can start the slow process of building / funding the car :roll: Anyone that has a VW Golf / Rabbit / GTI/ Jetta that would like to trade for a parts XJ let me know.

Tracker Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I live on a segment of the "Rim of The World" rally course here in California. It's kind of cool to have a race come to you, instead of the other way around. Good seats too. And yes, Brats do make good rally cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Subaru's are good, and they pay the best for top wins. Just when you start out you can only have 2wd and non-turbo :cry: I have driven VW's in the past so that is what I favor now ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
