Walt, that car is pretty sweet in tarmac trim. Petters been in such a slump lately, hope this revives his spirits somewhat. Chris has been coming into his own lately and has been doing great in a car he isn't so confident in. Here's to a turnaround in the season for Subaru.

I know that they have Rally America and X games but that would probably be the next in thing after drifting, and before that 400mm. Too bad the next race track presummed to open wont have a rally course(i think)... Would be awesome if they had then I would see Elway/Aeros there all the time..

I see the got rid of the obligatory hood scope. I know it wasn't ever functional on the WRC cars but being as it's a subaru trademark, I'm surprised they lost it.

Petter took 2nd... w00t! The WRC2008 car seems promising. I'm pretty sure Atkinson will make the podium w/ the new car some time this season as well!
