Rons' Rides

Always nice to see a clean interior amazing stuff you might find.
I tried your suggestion of the double sided tape on the floor mat today, by the way. Unfortunately it didn't really work.

If you use the good stuff, real carpet tape, it will work.

It's about 20$ a roll, but it will work.

While getting the turn signal switch complex replaced on Bacon I saw this sitting in Accolade Auto sales lot. I want.

Yes, that does say spec B.

This should be you to that dealer:

Found a neat video about the SVX:

Wow, it's already been a week since the last Rallycross and I haven't updated.

The turn out wasn't as large as last time, but some of the new faces returned and some old faces came back. I only placed 4th this time but considering how horribly the car preformed I'm happy with it. And I had a great time.

I made a video for each of my 4 runs but until I find my charging cord for my tablet I won't be able to upload them.

It was a little dusty. Much better than last months mud.

It was easy to see where last months path was.

Four corners of happiness.

It was a long track this time, about two minutes. I need to remember next time to keep focused on my own performance and keep my mind in the game. If I hadn't been as worked up and distracted I would have done better.

Next month will be at Chahalis, which is more dirt and grass than dust and gravel.

Again: thanks to the volunteers and photographers.

"Always coming and going, going and coming, and never at the right time!"

The Oregon Rally Group Facebook page is a great source of information about upcoming Rally-cross and -stage races as well as a place to post our results and pics and brag about how well we've done, or moan and bi**h about our broken *** cars.

And every once in awhile someone will post cheap or free parts they no longer need.

It was a two and a half hour ride in each direction up to Olimpia WA, but since I was in the SVX I didn't really care.

The tyres are very worn and one is probably unusable, but they were free, so...

Using these on any car would instantly bump me up to the highest cless, so I'm probably not going to use them till Aviendha is ready. But they should be good to practice on the back roads.

Go find someone with a tyre groover and add some more tread. I bought mine with grooves in them already. They had only done 4 runs in a hillclimb event when I got them so were still good but the outsides were chewed out. I think they are in the first few posts of my MR2 thread.

@Hayden I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with a problem keeping a car near the speed limit. With my Legacy I could maintain a variance of 3 MPH comfortably over long distances. With the SVX it is hard to keep the car within 15.

I'll bet. More slippery than almost anything, plus that EG33. Once it's wound up it wants to keep going. 👍 I have the same issue with my '08 OBXT.

Should get. 4th gen Legacies are quite literally the bomb. I had two. Watch for the banjo screen on the oil return line off the turbo.

But remember the difficulty of keeping the SVX within 15? The LGT will make the "keep it within 15" game a wistful memory. I have trouble keeping my Stage 2 OBXT within.. twenty.
