We've gone over this a million times. You like rally. It's awesome. I agree. I've been involved with multiple teams over the years. Doesn't mean I'm bringing a car on tarmac-type coilovers to play in a rutty field. Why can't you let people enjoy their cars in their own way without talking down to them because they don't share the exact same interest or car prep you do?
For the record, I run mudflaps on the OB because they were OEM on every single car from the factory. I run flaps on the STi to keep big shit from hitting the doors from the front wheels, and to keep spray down from the rears. It's not the fault of the guy behind me that I decided to run wide sticky tires on the street; why should his car get torn up by whatever I'm spitting out? It's common courtesy. |
This.
Talking shit about mudflaps on Subarus just because said owners don't rally is dumb. Sure, they've become a trendy accessory, but they are actually useful as well. You might as well tell all Subaru owners they should remove their AWD and turbos unless they're racing in GrN or the WRC.
Oh wait... Subaru doesn't even race in the WRC... I guess they're not really rally cars at all. Alex, you should get rid of your Subaru and get a Ford, then put mudflaps on it and tell all Ford owners they're not allowed to do the same unless they're rallying.
