Met Petter Solberg today

WOW, awesome day today. Just like the title says, i met Petter Solberg today @ the subie dealer in Lumberton NJ. He was a really awesome guy, really friendly. Signed autographs and took pictures (although we were some of the last ones in so 1 autograph each) There were about 200+ people that showed up, and waited outside for hours in like 90+ degree weather, some subies from Florida and i heard even Texas . Plus the 2006 Impreza was there, and IT LOOKS GREAT in person, and got to sit in it too. Have pics and will post them but on my friends camera. Anyone else go?

Awesome. I almost met him at RIM a few years back, when he was the 'young gun' #2 driver for Subaru.

I barely missed the autograph signing

What year was he at RIM? I must have missed him. Anyway, that would be pretty cool to meet him in person...
