Wichita people?
 
I have seen a few around. Please chime in.

I have a Raven FRS and commute from Andover to Cessna every day down Kellogg.

Race SCCA and PCA autocrosses but haven't seen any other FRS/BRZs out there. Are any of you guys tracking/autoxing your cars and if so, where? If not, why not?

OmarGC 04-17-2013 11:41 PM

You on KSautoforums/wichita racing?

My Argento FR-S and I live out west near Maize, I'm a student at Wichita State. Saw a Hot Lava FR-S at Boeing a couple weeks ago.

Haven't tracked mine or modded it in any way, plan on turbo'ing it soon.

You should come out to a SCCA or PCA AutoX. The next SCCA event is this weekend, come do what the car was made for!

Sweet, a recent pickup? I saw a White FRS yesterday. If we could get a few more people on coordinating on here we could have a small meet.

What part of town do you live in?

I am in Topeka, just got my Firestorm this past Saturday.

An FR-S meet in Wichita would be a great excuse to get out on the highway and drive it for a while!!!

Bfly 06-11-2013 11:31 PM

I own a SWP BRZ...no mods or track days yet. However, I have a few mods in mind. Have yet to see another BRZ since I got mine, but saw a white FRS a few weeks ago and have heard about a hot lava FRS on the south side of Wichita

I have yet to go to black-top nationals but I know that a lot of the other SCCA guys help organize the autocross. It is just a big car show?

I might be interested in meeting up for the Saturday night thing.

karlp12345 08-02-2013 01:38 PM

Saw a SWP brz today getting on the ramp at Pawnee to head north on I35. I was getting off i35 at Pawnee. I finally saw my twinkie!!! Anyone here?? This was around 12:50-1:00pm

nguyen_er 05-07-2014 07:01 AM

Whoa I never saw this thread. Lol too bad no ones posted at all this year...

DylanFRS 05-07-2014 10:49 AM

Yeah, not a lot of 86 activity in Wichita. I recently met @housecat who started coming out to SCCA autocross events. I attend both PCA and SCCA autocrosses and am always surprised at the lack of FR-S/BRZs there. We have a lot of Subaru WRX guys come out to the SCCA events but no BRZs (except Chris who just started). Kind of sad since this car is much more at home on an autocross course than a WRX. Hell, even the Mini guys have a decent showing.

nguyen_er 05-08-2014 03:15 AM

Oh nice. I've never autox before. I want to so bad. And go to on a track. I want to get FI soon but there's only 1 e85 pump that I know of in Wichita.

What is holding you back? Autocross is the easiest event to get into. Just wake up early, drive to the venue, and sign up.

nguyen_er 05-08-2014 01:40 PM

Lol I usually don't have time... And I work until like 3-4 am too

Bfly 05-27-2014 04:25 PM

Jelly. I was originally going to get a swp brz. But subaru barely have me anything for my trade in.

Bfly 06-04-2014 04:34 PM

Just a mishimoto intake tube. Sound gen delete. Nameless trackpipe. Used to have a greddy sp elite exhaust but sold it. Rear diffuser. Rear spats. Beat sonic v2 sharkfin. Uh.... Helix smoked side markers. And... That's about it. Oh and toms jdm tails. And just got some hood struts. Ordered some window visors and a rear roof visor too. I want to go FI soon but probably gonna wait til after I move to AZ next year. Weather here sucks.

How about you?

Oh yeah? What wheels are you looking at

Greetings and salutations! I have recently purchased a DGM BRZ limited. Glad to see the ICT is getting some love on this forum. Went to the SCCA SOLO trials for the first time this month because of the mention on here. So, thanks for that. It was fun watching a brand new camaro ss get hooned around like that.

nguyen_er 06-10-2014 02:03 PM

@Bfly were you on rock a little before noon? I saw a swp brz on the way to work.
And a dmg brz and a blue frs. Haha where y'all at?!

Jarent 06-10-2014 02:32 PM

I stick to NW Wichita mostly. Live and work there. 21st and Tyler. Saw a hot lava FRS at 37th and ridge last week. Looked nice and clean.

When I bought my BRZ late last month, Subaru of Wichita had over a dozen BRZs on their lot. Good selection.
