brembo brakes allowed on version 7 subaru now

I thought the Brembo setup had always been homologated in that specific VO?

Not much use in the US, with no tarmac events...

Yet.........!

STUMP, why don't you introduce yourself? This cryptic post along with another post which insinuated that Pat was running illegal brakes at Pike's Peak makes me wonder who/what you are?

Stump I think that if Pat was running according to the 5621 Homologation form then he needed to conform to the 11/09 Variant Option which allows the use of Brembo Brakes but does not allow the use of the electronic center differential. I do not see that it allows the use of the roof ventilator which is in the N 5621 Variant Option 03/03 that one allows the Electronic Center Differential and the roof ventilator which must also include 10/08 completely. Since I was not in the car with Pat I cannot comment on the center Differential but the roof vent is not included in that VO. I looked through article 254 and there is no provision for Roof Vents so maybe I missed something.

There were reports of Pat's crew working feverishly durring the post tarmac service to do a lot of work due to the tarmac configuration they had had on the car...

isn't this just a cross post of this other forum thread, probably posted by stump since no one was noticing his other post :

As I posted there, I seem to have been THE ONLY competitor at Pikes who actually made an effort to run 17s legally, by the way. As I have mentioned to any competitor at any rally, come on up and rip the car apart for all I care. We've been through so much scrutiny (i.e. overseas, here, canada, etc.) that I doubt you or even anyone in North America has a better understanding of what is legal on these cars that us, but feel free.

Don't we normally close double posts, or do I get to defend myself in 2 forums ?

Pat just a quick question am I missing in article 254 or is my interpretation of the Homologation papers correct? I understand where you are coming from since almost every car in North America is not legal. I mean there was a well known team running a national event with a car that was blatantly illegal.

 

[Glenn Wallace]

Pat, the accusations aren't worthy of a reply. I mean, really.

This stuff is priceless! Pat, I particularly liked your response on the other forum - origins of the stump nickname. I can't believe all this free entertainment. Don't sweat it.
