ORLANDO, Fla. ( March 3, 2005 )–Michael Flynn is hoping that the third time is indeed a charm, and that the luck of the Irish will be him. He is taking a Subaru to Sebring for the third year, but instead of the normally aspirated Subaru Impreza 2.5L that he has worked with for the past two years, Flynn’s #26 will be a new 2004 Subaru WRX with the 2.0L turbocharged engine. This year will mark the initial debut of a forced induction racecar into the World Challenge Touring Series.
The Subaru Impreza WRX in the turbo configuration has competed successfully in the World Rally Championship as well as in SCCA Pro Rally and Solo II, and has racked up victories in all of these venues. However, this is a first for turbocharged engines in the World Challenge Touring Series, and is the maiden appearance of the Subaru WRX.
Teaming up with Irish Mike’s Racing this year will be GPMoto, Inc., out of Portland , Ore. Sean Logan, owner of GPMoto, and Eric Witte both expressed enthusiasm about being teamed with Irish Mike’s Racing. GPMoto has developed a complete product line to help the Subaru go fast on the track or on the street. A complete line of performance parts from headers to turbo kits to adjustable coil over shocks, every thing a Subaru owner could want, can be found on their website at www.gpmototech.com. The #26 is carrying the new GPMoto headers.
The Subaru was set up using the data that Irish Mike’s Racing has been able to gather over the past two years with the normally aspirated racecar.
Although dropping out of the SCCA SPEED Touring Car Championship before the 2004 season ended, Flynn continued to deliver stunning performances in SCCA Club Racing and currently sits atop the standing for ITS class in Central Florida Region, and is tuning up for Sebring.
If the performance is as expected at Sebring, and SCCA Pro moves ahead with completing the competition rules for the forced induction entries, Irish Mike’s Racing has two additional chassis that are sitting the race shop ready to be complete as turbocharged racecars.
