HAHAHAHA!!, yeah now that is one sweet little wagon.
"ANY FOOL CAN GO FAST IN A STRAIT LINE" :lol:
I expect that thing to be sputtering and kick out massive flames from the ALS. Oh wait, its a PGT entry right? Guess the flames will have to be decal only :D
I hope you guys bring it to the next level in '04. Nothing like a monster Open class car!!!

Hey Jamie, thanks for documenting the buildup with pictures. It gives us folks who may be interested in doing the same in the future a clear idea of what to expect. I'd love to see how the roll cage goes together as well. Keep us posted.

You know that deal you have going on, $10 for your name....Shall we ask Richard Burns if he wants his name on it. He should be able to cough up $10.oo from somwhere:)
"ANY FOOL CAN GO FAST IN A STRAIT LINE"
You should copyright/register that..too good.
Rally on!

a cool area would be to fill the steel area above the side windows and down the steel section between the back door window and the wagon rear window with names. :D In yellow lettering of course ;)

Jamie, you've got cash (via PayPal).:D
My vain side wants to suggest putting the names on the hood.:o However, I must agree with Mr. Felstead on this one and say the body area between the rear door glass and the rear cargo glass would be just about perfect.
Can you feel the wagon love?!?!?!?!?!:lol:

I think it makes a good point. It takes skill, determination, and intelligence to rally a car. There are a lot more hazards to driving a rally car than racing on the street, or at a drag strip. Besides, if I were one of her sponsors, (Oh yeah, I guess I did make a donation!!), I doubt I would be supporting Rally racing and Drag Racing. Two totally different types of motorsports.
:rolleyes: Degrades people? Please, tell me how it degrades someone. It tells the truth. Any person capable of holding a steering wheel, and mashing a gas pedal can 'street race'.
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: 'Low mentality'? You seem to be intelligent enough to know better than that. It takes cleverness to come up with a slogan, or statement like that.
Go get comfortably numb, and relax. :) :)

As a quasi-professional racer herself, I would think that she could at least have the decency to realize and understand that motorsports come in all shapes and sizes. Just because someone goes in a straight line for only 4.5 seconds at a time doesn't mean they are any less skilled as a driver. By calling these people "fools", she is degrading fellow racers that are the best of the best in their respective class of racing and doing what they love to do, just like her.
[quote][b]:Any person capable of holding a steering wheel, and mashing a gas pedal can 'street race'.[/B][/QUOTE]
I said nothing about street racing at all. there is a big difference between street racing and "going fast in a straight line" which is an obvious referance to drag racing. Have you ever missed a shift, bogged off the line, stalled, or accidently ran into the rev limiter? It does take skill to get from point A to point B as quick as possible.
[quote][b]::rolleyes: :rolleyes: 'Low mentality'? You seem to be intelligent enough to know better than that. It takes cleverness to come up with a slogan, or statement like that. [/B][/QUOTE]
Yes it does take cleverness to come up with a catchy slogan, but it doesn't take much mentality to realize that in a professional sport when sponsorship and fans is what drives the sport, you want to appeal to as many people as possible. There are going to be those fans and sponsors that like her regardless of if she puts that sticker on the car. But there are also going to be fans and sponsors that would have liked her without the decal, but don't now and/or refuse to sink money into her team because they ALSO sponsor or support other types of racing.
Do you see slogans on top professional motorsports teams that degrade other drivers? no. One reason is because they have respect for other forms of motorsports and the other drivers that are at the top of their game.

And I also think there is a huge difference in even changing it from "any fool" to "anyone". but even that is still wrong.

Actually, the top fuel cars are single speeds that use clutch packs and tire expansion (centrifugal force) to act as a gear change.
So if I came on here and posted a pic of my car with a sticker saying something bad about rally racing, I wouldn't get flamed? yeah right

I agree with you that people poke fun at other people. I hear it during IROC races and on interviews. I have no problem with people poking fun at each when they are around each other or know each other.
But I know how the majority of this board (including Jamie) feels about Drag racing (and NASCAR racing but that is a different story) and from what I have seen in the past on this board, her sticker is not "poking fun" at drag racing. Her sticker says exactly how she feels about it. And it is unprofessional to put that on a Professional car. That's all I'm saying. :)

[B]I have a question. When building a rally car, is the ventilation/heating system removed? [/B][/QUOTE]
In PGT class the heating & ventilation system must stay (as well as the ducting inside the dash, etc. However the AC system may be removed.
I think in Open, you can take the whole deal out.

It's just for fun, don't turn it into some huge political battle. This kind of oversensitivity is what's going wrong with the world today.

oh please. knowing Jamie the way i do, she wasnt thinking of any sport, be it drag racing, circuit racing, NASCAR or whatever. It's a fun thing just commenting on how most people drive.
It's humour, and i think it's funny.
"Pink Floyd State of Mind. Wish you were here" I am so glad i am not there, please chill out, you are making a mokery of yourself and making a mess of this thread which is all about what a fantastic job Jamie has done to get this WRX wagon up and running.

I find the funny thing is she built the car(with some help of course) in like a matter of a month or so, which i think is good but being i dont know anything about rally who knows

Eric, you do makes some points in your posts. However, it seems that the people who are at these events love that sticker. Lots of giggles from the racers and the spectators. By the way, when Jamie says "any fool can go fast in a streight line"... the other part of that is "but it takes a special fool to do it in the mud and curves." The people like it, a few complain. No harm is intended, she isn't slamming all other motorsports at all.

Jamie posted pics of her car. People gave their opinion. I gave my opinion which didn't agree with everyone else that posted. I don't see how I made a mess of this thread... I simply posted my thoughts on the car like everyone else did
Then, people followed up by quoting my opinion and saying certain things. Am I not allowed to explain why I feel how I feel and retort to comments people made?
I don't see any bad arguments or anything. Just a little disagreement and debate between people. I don't think anyone is making a monkey of themselves.
