Stock STi ride height is fine... I dare say perfect. It'd even be fine if it were lowered a little. The STi was designed for roads like these, this is what it dreams about when sleeping in the garage at night.

Selling the outback in the next two weeks?

Whats one more week gonna set you back?

This is the sort of trip the Outback dreams about too!

I don't think it'd be as much fun in a full sized truck, but if no one else signs up we might have to let you in that way.....

Pete,

If you are short of drivers, I may be able to persuade my brother to go sperately.

The plan was for him to me my navigator, but he drives a WRX also...
...if you can set us each up with a navigator, we could drive seperate cars.

Mike

750 miles in a weekend, you probably wouldn't want to go out on bald RE92's but any decent street tire with some tread left should handle all we'll throw at it.

I would advise you to get a full sized spare if you can though, If you suffer the misfortune of getting a flat early on, you probably wouldn't want to drive the rest of the way on your mini donut spare.

Kevin, come on Bring out the Outback. You were the person i was going to call on this drive to see about getting you to come.

second pick would be Adam over at LIC.

as far as the tire thing goes. Bring a full size spare or even two But the roads are in very good condition
