It seems like racing a more modern Subaru would get more people interested in (and make more money for) the shop and even with all of this bickering, I'm still not convinced that one or the other makes a better racecar chassis. Perhaps it's better to start with the light/flexible chassis since either way, a full cage is going in.
Maybe they're going on the idea that starting with a CRAP beat to death Impreza L says more for their shop's abilities than starting with a car that's a rocket from the factory. I.E. STi.
