beefoss Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Well done to all members of the SIDC. It looked like everyone had such a fantastic day, I'm quite jealous that I couldn't make it but I hope there'll be more opportunities to do a 'good deed' sometime. Does this prove to the minority of British public that Subaru drivers are not 'chavs' or 'boy racers' but are heart warming, selfless and genuine car enthusiasts willing to brighten up people's lives. Well done again SIDC Keith Link to comment

stum450n Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I'm blown away by the enthusiasm for last Sundays Impreza Invasion for young Jake - even over in the states we've inspired Scooby owners to start something similar! There's threads on NASIOC, RS25, even Subaru USA gave it a mention! God I'm proud to be a Scooby owner right now! Link to comment

Jane mentioned that Jake's parents were so taken by what a great bunch you all were, that they're thinking of getting their own Scooby. It was all a bit OTT when a windscreen sticker may have been enough Link to comment
spect Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Blimey - it seemed such a small thing for me to do, but what a response from everyone. I have done this kind of thing before and even do it with a motorbike club as well but we have never had this kind of response before. Lets do it again sometime Link to comment
stum450n Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Lets do it again sometime Oh you can count on that one! Link to comment
Karlito Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Hi guys, just signed up to say a huge well done and thank you! I live a few houses up from Jake and may have been almost excited as he was The sound when everyone was giving it beans was great; a symphony of boxers! Coincidentally, I got some grit in my eyes (yes, both of them) and a lump in my throat when I saw Jake's face light up as he came to the front door! Top work fellas. Restored my faith in humanity.

dan_streeter Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Hey everyone, just wanted to say thanks to everyone who was involved in this. I'm an old member of SIDC from when I had a scoob (about 4 years ago) so was delighted to hear (when Jakes mum knocked on my door) that there was a scooby meet on my street! I almost didn't make it outside as the wife and I were expecting our second any day, and that morning she was inside the house going through the early stages of labour! I got asked a few times (being a local i guess) if I wanted to ride around town to show the way - it was a good job I didn't as we were in the hospital that evening and he was born in the early hours on monday. Jakes face was priceless, and you defiantly all made his day (as well as mine and my son!) I've got a load of photos of the day, pick of the bunch below. If anyone one wants high res versions, please let me know. I've got a few vids also so will post them when off the camera and uploaded. (Some of the images are cropped with my auto collage thing but are full in the real image) All the best, and thanks for making Jakes day amazing! Dan Link to comment
stum450n Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 If anyone has any photos from the day that they wouldn't mind donating for use in the next issue of True Grip, it would be a huge help if you could email them to me by Sunday 24th Sept. My email is stu at stumason.com Thanks in advance! Link to comment

GerryH Posted September 23, 2011 Author Share Posted September 23, 2011 Hi Stu, Jane was in Cornwall again last week and popped round yesterday with a couple of local papers that the family had saved for her and another couple for me. She says they're still talking about Jake's Subaru Day I also have the 30 pix that Jane took, saved on my computer. If you'd like them, PM an address and I'll send the relevant pages and stick the pix onto a memory card. Cheers Gerry Link to comment
