haha yeah i was actually thinking the same thing. there's only one other scoob fam in my home town. problem is he's at Tufts and i'm at penn state/penn tech williamsport, pa. and i don't even hav my car yet, i help him with his so i hav knowledge just not a car of my own. i hav a celica right now but i'm very fortunate to find an extremely high paying job this summer so i should hav my RS sumtime soon. i'm still debating over going RS-T or just suck it up and do an engine swap. if i went RS-T i'd wana completely rebuild the engine first and do a MY98 for the DOHC and then change ECU for a MAF to MAP swap intake. so until i hav a poopload of money and the time and patience to hav no car for a while i'm not doing the engine. first i'm doing the body.....which is a little secret. but i promise when its finished i'll make sure u see it. i'll make sure to keep in touch and when everything's in order meets will b arranged!

First off i wanna say how awesome you car looks. i am a totall GC8 lover, and to see one in my fav. color is sweeet! even more so b/c you can't buy one that color. very sick ride. i do kinda like it w/o the eyebrows, but it didn't look bad w/ them.
secondly, how is the engagement with that clutch pack? good for the track bad for the street?? looks kind mean on your left leg.
again killer job on the car.
