Subaru Fan Fan Festival, Rifu, Japan. (Classic Subies, too!)
An old friend of mine runs a small Subaru tuner company called "Wangan Special"(www.wangan-spl.co.jp).
He asked me to work the (small) aftermarket booth. I was free, so I went. It was hot as hell, but it was fun. This was just a PR event for Subaru. They had a test drive course, race car demonstrations, a small classic Subaru display, plus a bunch of other stuff. I spent most of the day in the booth, fighting over with Shibata-san over the oscillating fan. The guys from SYMS, STi, and TRUST were fighting over the subie girls. Anyway, here's what I saw: Test drive course.

I could be wrong, but I think the RAR only came in blue, white and yellow. That silver one (leaving the parking lot) is an S204. |

Awesome shots. Looks like an awesome event too - I wish I could've gone.
And I seriously had no idea Subaru had a kart team. |
