"Let's Off Road!"

There's a bit of a dual meaning to the title of this post...
First of all, we've bought a Subaru Forester S-Turbo to be used as our own tow-car rather than having to keep relying on the goodwill of my dad who very kindly lends us his Ford Ranger. This will mean we have more freedom to tow the MR2 and gives us a practical vehicle the rest of the time. However, it's not just practical, but pretty rapid for a 4x4 and great fun to drive.
Secondly, having our own car and using the insurance policy from the MR2 means that the race car can now be taken totally off the road and we can hopefully make performance improvements because of this. At least we won't have to keep applying tape over the racing numbers and fitting the number plates back on after each race!
Now we just need to organise our grounds to accomodate a trailer and we can buy our own rather than having to rent one for each event. That'll save us money in the long run and save having to take extra days off work to pick it up and return it each time.
All I've got to do is resist the temptation to spend money modifying the Forester... Yeah, Right.
