New guy, just saying hello

[Chown]

Hi all,

I've bought a Mk1b to do some track days and just wanted to say what a great car it is! I never realised how effective it would be around a track. It surprised many Imprezzas, BMW's etc etc.

Its not as if its cost me much either... £500 car, stripped out, springs, 4 wheel alignment, brakes, seat and harness, cheap air filter, oil catch tank and probably quite importantly a set of Toyo R888's (quick comment - these tyres are very good, excellant grip and very progressive not at all like I'd read. Not very hard wearing though obviously!).

This seems like a great forum and has it been of great help even in my first few weeks of ownership

Thanks

Any questions and queries regarding anything Mk1 related just make a post in this Mk1 section.

Any spare part requirements etc, use the items wanted/forsale sections..

There are a fair few track day mk1'ers on here, including the 'trackday queen' herself!


Welcome to IMOC and enjoy your Mk1!

Hello!

THey are fun on track aren't they? Everyone who's driven mine has said it's a hoot.
I've got another trackday in a couple of weeks. Just got my suspension done and I'm really looking forwards to it.

Still on old tyres though... I can't bear to shell out on 888's or the like whilst I still have tread on my track day rims!
