hmm if i can find some stock suspension i'll totally be there!

 

totally excited. it was the best thing that happened in my online world yesterday when i got the face book invite after class.

rally rally rally (x)

 

why does this have to be the day after keweenaw winter tsd? If i don't ski well, I might be able to make this, but doubtful.

rally rally rally!!!!

 

I'll probably come to spectate/help. Dave, let me know if there's anything you need help with.

 

Ski? TSD? I don't get it. (that's typical for me )

Okay, thanks a lot! I'd love to have help with course set-up...would you be willing to come down that morning and help lay the cones?

 

It's on like Donkey Kong. This is going to be a fun year, splitting rallyx and autox!

 

Sure thing, count me in.

 

If I ski well this weekend and next, I go to NCAA's for 2 weeks in Colorado and this is right in the middle of those 2 weeks. If I ski slow then I stay here, but there's a tsd saturday and I would like to do that. I could do both, but that would mean driving all of saturday, driving to the cities (6.5 hrs) at night, then rallyx on sunday. Kind of sounds like real rally racing.

 

ive got a set of 05 wrx stock springs that could maybe work for you? let me know.


and ill most likely be down there to watch as well if more hand are needed to help let me know what i can do!!

 

thanks. I'll reach out to you the week of the event to coordinate arrival times, etc...

 

Yes yes yes. Count me in as an extra set of hands. Cones, registration, tech, water boy, whatever. I wanna see the mud and snow fly!

 

Excellent doug, glad you're in for coming down and helping out!!!

This is going to be such a great event!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm very excited!

 

:woot: I'm in!:nana: :banana::jumpy:

 

i want full struts and springs together, im not swapping springs again. but thanks for the offer!

 

just thought i would check^^

 

Registration is open.

 

Damn, am I the only one signed up?

 

Hrmmmmm tempting to take a weekend off work for this.

 

Definitely interested. Won't know until closer to the date though. Is there a registration deadline? I looked on scca but didn't find anything.

 

The pre-registration deadline is effectively 5:00 pm on Friday before the event. We would REALLY appreciate if you pre-registered but you can register at the event if you need to.

Nope, now there is two of us.

 

nope 3 W00t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can not wait! I hope its somewhat warm, I want mud slinging !!

 

During timed runs, are drivers required to run the course with the front windows rolled down? And what about other rallyx's for the season?

~Dan

 

during all runs the drivers window must be closed to within 1". If you have a passenger the passenger window must also be closed to within 1". The exception is if you have window nets

 

thanks mister carl.

sign up people....

 

I might be heading out to watch. Do you guys need any volunteers???

 

always looking for course workers and people to help set-up the course in the AM. Watching is a great way to learn about the sport. I live in EP so if you want to follow me down in the AM just get a hold of me a couple days before to arrange a meeting time.

 

and now the wolf pack has grown to 4

 

I can only watch But thats OK, still going to be an awesome time!

 

there is usually a caravan thread that pops up for some events as well

 

yup, but sounded like he might want to come down to help set-up/volunteer. the caravan usually shows up just in time for teching their cars, etc...

 

I so need a helmet now more than ever, can my tax refund get here already..and I will need to get some snow pants this year cause last year at tax break I got soaked.

 

wants to goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

yeah i dont even need to buy then lol i just wanna borrow some stock suspension for this and then swap it back out when im done, unless someone wants a c0-driver and i pay half for gas?!?

 

yeah i need struts and springs, i just dont wanna take these struts apart again, as it was a pita puttin 03 s-tech springs on the sti struts

 

awesome thanks buddy!

 

Unless you wanna co-drive with me...

 

ill co-drive with you!! :biggrin: more like co-ride...

 

Awesome, I will most likely take you up on this. Just gotta make sure the schedule is clear.

 

Fixed that.

 

Heck yeah! Woo rally-x season opener!



Um, like last year, I'm looking to getting a random slew of co-drivers for this season as I'd like feedback on my car. This also opens up opportunity for some folks who might not want to use their own cars off-road to do some rally-x.

Signed up. I picked car number 77. If anyone wants to co-driver with me pick something like 17 or 71 as the alternative number.

 

Free to ride with if Tony doesn't wanna co-drive. No offense, but I gotta know your driving habits pretty well before I hand over the keys. I know Tony is a pretty responsible driver and only I'm allowed to screw it up. :laugh:
