    The Avant Slot Subaru Impreza is listed in the acceptable model table. It is an AWD with a long can inline motor and impressive engineering. It looks like a change of the guide and the rear wheels/tires are the major mods needed. I just want to confirm that these cars are legal for the Touring Series and what if any mods are needed (to convert from rally to touring -other than remove the Navigator).

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
