I’m trying to focus my research on the old Group A times. Picking up a lot of knowledge in this field but became very familiar with the Subaru WRC cars in general.
Unfortunately these times all stopped before my entrance in the scene. Most of the Subaru GpA or WRC cars are now more or less collectors items/ museum pieces being rallied in historic classes. As of my home in Netherlands makes it sometimes hard as the rally scene is not the same as in UK. I’ve been to a few editions of Rallyday and it was great among all the rally cars.
Unfortunately going to Kenya and vistit the modern Safari Rally isn’t possible at the moment. I’ve tried a few times to plan it, but Covid and currently the school holiday’s of the kids prevent a family holiday visting the country ánd combining the Safari Rally experience.
My dream and focus is to finish my Impreza to be as close as possible to the real car in visual sense and to collect as many Safari Rally items as I can.
And maybe, one day … I can visit the modern version of the Safari Rally …

In this journey I learned a lot about the car, met new people with similar interest, found people in the rally scene providing parts and more. And kept a few good friends all around the world!
