Subbing this one. Great input on the tires, I'm gonna have to go look them up. Any comments now that you've been on them a couple months and we're full tilt into rainy season?

Digging the stormtrooper look too.

Update!

This year is going to be a very exciting. I have learned a lot in the SCCA SOLO circuit and my STX class setup is coming along really well. This class is limited but yet flexible enough to make suspension and exhaust upgrades. My new BFG Rival S tires matched with the RPF1 17x9 wheels have proven to be an excellent choice for autoX. The KWV3s are simply amazing and I have learned last weekend what happens when you forget to dial in your suspension before an event.

Coming next week is my Tomei UEL header. Once installed I'll head over to Drift Office to get it tuned. I hope the torque will improve and provide me a little more edge against a very experienced driver in my class who drives a 2015 WRX. Interestingly the WRX and I are 2 and 2 each this year. Yep the WRX has the same engine but more horsepower and torque thanks to the turbo, and yet we compete in the same class.

Cheers!
