I think Fuman thinks the toque in my avatar looks like a chestnut and of course it is Ned. Little does he know but the joke is on him since it looks much more like an acorn.

Sorry about your loss, but good thing you walked away unharmed. I do have a question though....did you have traction control on when you lost control?

I had the VSC sport mode on. I think it is designed to let the wheels slip a little but not allow full out slides - I have always disliked anything that takes control away from the driver.

Bummer. Hope you are doing good.

Edit: Just read this



I say higher than $17k in damage+paint...etc

I see their rationale.

Go for the FA20DIT!!!! Although many new changes and not truly the same engine anymore, you'll still be the twins's cousin with the FA20 2.0


I am super excited for the new WRX, she gets here this Thursday in true world rally fashion!

Somebody has to say it.

When it's raining, I let the car's nannies do their thing as I don't want to be posting up one of these threads with my car all crumpled up.
