That'd be fun as hell, as long as they let you take the Outback XT out for a spin on the track.

Hmmm...that's cool. I wish they'd do that with the STI's and Legacy GT's!

THAWA · Post by **THAWA** » Fri Jul 09, 2004 5:34 am

Oh, I thought he just got invited to see it at the official unvieling at the Detriot or Chicago auto show, or something like that. I didn't know it was a test drive on a track type thing that he went to.

THAWA · Post by **THAWA** » Fri Jul 09, 2004 5:43 am

he went to both

Ah, right on. I guess I should have read the write up, eh?

W3rd! I know exactly where the Miami event is, my friend and I were just there for the Mazda Rev-It-Up Challenge. Good chance of me going to that!

Can you beat on the cars, or is it just a cruise thing? I don't wanna drive all the way down there to drive like a granpa...

I tried to sign up for the tampa one a while ago, but of course its full.... Miami is 5 hours away from me

..... or maybe i should be saying that Miami is only 5 hours away from me

...... I do have family down there that could use some visiting!

I know I'm going to be "driving" the poop out of them.....I ain't babying these things. I want to know how they really perform.

lots of fun, basically they put aside the usual salesperson pitch (they are not even subaru employees, actual race drivers) give you a basic intro to the fleet you can drive (explanation of varying drivetrains) and then an overview of the auto-x style course... pick the cars you want to drive and just go at it

They prefer you to not overdrive the car so take her a bit easy on the first run..lol... then let the awd slides begin!

After that we had a large hill (basically a pile or gravel) to show how steep of an incline the car could go up.... very impressive

It's a fun day and worth the trip, you get to do stuff you could never do on a usual test-drive... the new braking system with EBFD really gets the car stopped well

enjoy!
