[QUOTE=NYC;16145347][COLOR=red][SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]Not to worry, Uber Wagon. I've known the winner since the day I was born, and you've got some bad info on your details there. [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

Welcome to Nasioc.
It's legit.
Take care of that car. It's a perfect track ready machine. There is all sorts of information laying around here documenting it's history.
If I slide out to Denver, I want a look.

Congrats! I am very happy to hear that the car is going to someone that appreciates it. Really....you don't know how happy that makes me. :) :) :)
That car was part of a very memorable trip for Rob Dyrdek, his big buddy Big Black, and a friend named Ruben. Ruben made the Gumball movie from 2004 (6 Days...) and ended up as the Director of Rob's new MTV show.
I think you will enjoy the car. We all really enjoyed driving the hell out of those things in Europe. Just so you know...that thing can do 180 MPH!
Do you plan on keeping the graphics or taking them off?
Send me a private message (forum feature) sometime and I will hook you up with a bunch of DC stuff and some signed Dyrdek stuff.

Congrats GumballSTI!
To win something like that must feel absolutely amazing!
I was lucky enough to drive one of those Gumball cars (Thanks Ken!) at Rally New York, last year (not yours, but the white one). They are insane!! Basically a race car with a license plate..
Like they say..."drive it like you stole it!"
OH and watch for flames coming from the exhaust when you lift... ;)

On another note...:eek:...Ken Block is on NASIOC?! Awesome! Its so nice to see that professional drivers, race teams, and "celebrities" aren't too good to kick back and hang out with the rest of us enthusiasts on occasion.

Thanks! I must say it feels pretty good. I'm still driving my Toyota pickup while I wait for the Gumball to arrive. I wanted to drive it out, but I couldn't get down to pick it up over Thanksgiving, and they needed to make room in the warehouse, so I put it on a transport. I can't wait to get behind the wheel of something fast :)! I'm hoping it makes it in one piece.

:devil:[/quote]
Thanks for the offer, but I've already got quite the line of friends offering me free* garages.
*just leave the keys and we promise to take good care of it!
Don't be mad if I don't take you up on it. :lol:

Keep it shiny side up, my lowly stock WRX has more power than I have skill. I'm still seething with jealousy.

Dyno Love
�

Seems Uber Wagon and I share a tuner! Turns out he rolled up to my car while the tuner was on a street run. It spent yesterday on the dyno getting re-mapped for this altitude, our ethanol mix gas, and an extra bit of reliability, all while smoothing out the edges and bumping the power at the wheels from 283 to 316. Ah, the dyno. What a wonderful invention. Says I've got plenty more room to grow if I want to start pushing the engine a little. We shall see..... Man I love this car!
Thanks for everyone for the many congrats!

LIES! Big Black would never say Howdy, he would just whoop his ass and take it.
OT, their show is by far one of the funniest shows on TV. I hate to admit I watch MTV again because of it.

This is info i got from Modified Magazine a while back when they published the article on that fire breathing trio. Didnt somebody mess up the body work on the Blue STi by hitting a few road cones? Just wondering...Congrats that ride is sick!! Im not usually into the graphic/vinyl thing but that STi looks soooo good.
