John takes the Manta to Birmingham

[Rally Manta]

Well, I took the Manta down to Birmingham for a SCCA RallyCross a couple weeks ago and had a lot of fun. Running a few tanks of gas through it apparently solved the fuel issue- I guess despite pulling the tank, new lines, carb re-build, and some other efforts there was still a tiny bit of trash in the system somewhere. It ran great all day, in suffering heat, being thrashed hard by myself and a friend (who is now hooked bad on RallyCross)

Anyway, thought you guys and gals might enjoy a couple pics: (you'll have to suffer through some Subaru pictures haha.)

If anyone has advice or parts that would be helpin' me RallyCross efforts, please let me know. Arrrg.

Looks awesome John. Dry and dusty is an understatement, huh?

We didn't know it was rally cross, my son has been thrashing a Datsun for years on a course he made on our property. That looked like a bunch of fun.

I've got a friend that does it here as well, he's also hooked on it, drives a silver (I think) WRX. If my Caliber ever makes it to where I consider it old enough to beat on and I can lighten it up enough, I might join you guys. The CVT has got to go first me thinks. Anybody see the Caliber Rallye concept?

[Rally Manta]

That Caliber looks fast, I hadn't seen that yet. Next event at Steele Dragway should only be a couple weeks away (I heard they're having to move it to Aug... come join us. Southeast Division Rallycross - Home

I hope to have the Manta fixed to play in the dirt again soon.

I didn't know you were on this board John. Hey, it's good to see the Manta running so well now. I'll have to get a better look at it at your next rallycross. If it's the same site that you usually go to off of Greenbriar, I don't live too far from there. You can bring it by and see my GT being reassembled and have a cold one to rinse out the dust.

And I'm outside of Madison, AL Opel Kid. Another Bama Opeler.

Wendell, John's Manta is currently resting at my place.
