Historic Hack.

By: Jake

Long before I realized a 1:25 scale diecast replica STi wing would meet the rule requirements for SCCA Solo class STU, I envisioned and created a one off, custom spoiler for the Subaru STi. The spoiler was sleek, subdued, OE looking and best of all it bolts directly to an OEM STi trunk, covering all 17 existing holes punched out by the OEM whale wing. The reason I never ran this wing extensively was because a wingless trunk was much more "sleeper" and lighter! For SCCA classing purposes, doubleside-taping the tiny replica wing at the race kept the rule-nazis quiet. I thought I would share my original custom spoiler with the rest of you here. Enjoy.

Pocono Grand Slam Aftermath - Brownbo's & Smoke

Subaru STi brakes magically change colors when you hamfist the car for 30 minutes...

This is what happens when a hamfist tries to catch another hamfist on an open track.

Pocono Grand Slam 2009

At Pocono Grand Slam this year, one hamfist blew up his motor. More to come on that later. In the mean time check out the video from my one session on the east course. Due to technical difficulties I am driving on the bizzaro world East Course in my car, just right hand drive. Don't ask... Stay tuned for the last lap where I put one wheel off.
