Subaru Rally Car

Our current team rally car is an Open 4WD Class, 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX with an STi motor.  This car is extremely robust and well-assembled, as it has competed and finished in nearly every Rim of the World Rally and Gorman Rally since 2003. 

Though the car is officially in Open 4WD class, it has very basic - but thoughtful - modifications that would classify it more as a Production GT car.  This is very beneficial for our championship aspirations, as the car is not tuned on the ‘bleeding edge’ and will likely not suffer any catastrophic engine or driveline failures due to overt stressing of components.
