Howdy!
My name is Erik, from the Buffalo, NY area. Excited to be here.
I currently have a Black 2017 ST that I have been daily driving completely stock for 2.5 years. Before that I had a 2013 Fiesta SE that I thrashed pretty hard as a daily, autox, and rallyx rig. I also have a 2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS stage rally car.
I have been battling back and forth over the last few months what I wanted to focus on in the next few years. Rally is incredibly expensive (2000-2500 per event) and I wanted to get more seat time with something. I went back and forth whether or not to convert my Impreza to "on road" duty, but I really want to leave it in rally form for 1-2 events a year and rallycross.
I found out recently about the Gridlife events, and that seems like a lot of fun. I was thinking about picking up a Honda Fit to run their spec fit class, but then I realized I have a pretty potent daily that would be great for track days with some new pads and rubber, so I have decided to plunge into racing and modding the ST, and I hope that it too does not turn into a full blown race car haha.
So hello again, and I am looking forward to learning and participating about this great little car!
