I especially like the "darkies" he puts down during those 4wd drifts.

This is what TA is all about.

IMO the best Impreza ever built... driven properly too by its builder and not a seasoned, chequebook pro too

Hi Ron. I asked Olly how much for a Gobstopper and he told me that the amount of time Matt consumes building it would be £ 200.000:00 +.
Much of my engine is the same, built by Matt Clark. Just awesome to drive.
Only running 420bhp at mo. Getting their new twisted turbo system in early Feb and aiming at 600bhp.

In Time Attack this year Olly is running at 725bhp, and on final run of each T.A using there No2 system it develops 850 bhp.

Matt knows there more in it yet !!

It's only running around 850bhp

















Olly is a great driver and it's easy to see from his driving style where he learnt his skills and he's such a nice and approachable guy just like his dad was, his dad was my hero and Olly isn't far behind.

Agree, Olly is one of the nicest guys you will meet. They all are, Matt, Mark and Dave.

If you go onto the RCM website there are many pics of the Gobstopper being built,there is also a good story in the lastest True Grip magazine,there will be a bit more added to the video from the Snetterton meeting,I'll let you know as soon as Matt has finished it.
But,having been out with Olly in the Gobstopper,I can tell you its mental.

The standard to which its been prepared makes all the others look like home built backyard specials.
Everything just looks like its was designed from the off and not an afterthought, to do that takes time and patience hats off to them.
