I'm looking to start a Subaru based team for the NC solo cup tour! We can change the name, but I thought I'd throw something out there. For those who don't know, Subaru is the Japanese name for Pleiades, which is the constellation the company's logo is based on.
Enough history! Who would like to join? We need 6 drivers of varying skill level.
1. Alex Lewis (axex)
2. Mina Ingraham (rapidbutterfly)
3. John Wolf (em99sport)
4. Josh Sotomayor (Donutz)
5. Travis Toliver (tsivart)
6. Amy Toliver
I haven't run with you all yet so I don't know where I would place. Last year was my first season in autoX (DC/western MD regions) so I'm inclined to say C, but towards the end of the year I was regularly placing in the 50-60 for 100+ drivers and 30/60 for smaller events. So maybe B would be better.
I know you Subaru lovers are out there so let's band together and help each other out!
We now have a full team! I look forward to meeting you all and travelling to some awesome events!

I am game, if there are no objections. but at this point I am only a moderately solid B-ish driver, so IDK, don't guess you need 2.

No objections here, as long as you plan on making it to a lot of the events. It would actually be best to have 2 people from each skill area just in case. Who else wants in? ;D |

Steven Rankins nickname on NASIOC and everywhere else, for that matter, is pleiades It's okay though... I think he would make a great cult leader! And I know the history and symbolism of it. Dare I admit it..... I used to own a WRX |

Spend enough time around AutoX and you'll know who Rankins is In fact, you own a Subaru, you should ALREADY know who Rankins is. He's the go-to-guy for anything Subaru around here. |

I'm all for contributing to a Team Subaru, but I will likely have to miss a few of the events, so no Solo Cup for me this year.

John, based on what I've seen of your speed - we'd be pretty lucky and grateful to have you run even one or two events....

I doubt I'll be able to make it to every single one, but that's why we'll (hopefully) have 6 people! We get to drop 2 events just in case. |

I'd be happy to contribute as well though unsure as to how many of the solo cup events I'll be making it to. I'll promise to try too lol (read: keep the shenanigans to a minimum)

Awesome! Yea I think most people are going to have to miss some events, but that's ok. That makes 5 Subies, not bad. Just need one more! |

Hey Guys,
I could be mistaken but I swore that Amy told me that she was going to be the final driver for the team. I think Mina talked to her right?

Yes, I think she said she'd be willing to do it - I was thinking she might post here - but hopefully I understood her correctly.
Which reminds me, maybe we can update the roster with real names. Axex is the only person whose name I don't know.
1. ________________ (axex)
2. Mina Ingraham (rapid butterfly)
3. John Wolf (em99sport)
4.Josh Sotomayor (Donutz)
5. Travis Toliver (tsivart)
6. Amy Toliver (____________)
This is the lineup as I understand it.....

Alex, I look forward to meeting you.
It is true the team may or may not have enough depth, but we'll do our best just the same. :-)
