Win big time in Rallying !! il Rally della Primavera Saturday, April 22nd, 2006 Don’t happen to own the AH 3000 driven by Pat Moss and Ann Wisdom in the 1960 Alpine Rally? (Since this posting doesn’t include the photo of the Healey 3000 with a variety of impressive trophies including what appears to be some sort of Roman style bust, you’ll just have to imagine it.) Not to fret. We welcome everything from Blower Bentleys to Ciroën 2CV’s to Jaguar E-Types to Alfa Giulia Supers to Subaru WRX STi’s. The more interesting the better. This will be a brisk, 152.82 mile Monte Carlo style rally with easy to follow mileaged written instructions including leg times. This is a drivers event using some of the best sports car roads within easy distance of the Twin Cities. Guaranteed excellent all paved roads, great scenery, and an eclectic variety of vehicles. We’ll end up at the Pickle Factory in Pepin for a post rally beer, scoring, and awards. Dinner options include the Harbor View in Pepin and the Gypsy Grill in Maiden Rock. Registration: 12:00 noon to 12:45pm First Car Out: 1:01pm Meet at: Smokey Row Cafe, 1926 Old West Main, Red Wing, MN Ends at: The Pickle Factory in Pepin, WI. Cost: $15/car members of clubs that list this event (You saw it here, you qualify), $20/car all others. Rallymaster: Ed Solstad (612) 822-0569 or [email protected] While we don’t have any Alpine or even Coulee Cups to give out, we do have good wine for the class winners plus Dead Guy Ale for “dead last but finishedâ€. Please RSVP to the Rallymaster by Wednesday, April 19th Presented by the Stella del Nord Chapter of the Alfa Romeo Owners Club in conjunction with the Jaguar Club of Minnesota and the Intermarque Council We’re in need of two people to help out with checkpoints. Please get in touch with Ed if you’re available. Thanks. Hope to see some Subies out there. You'll really enjoy the roads and you won't even have to plot out your own route as we've done all of that for you. Rev High - Have Fun!!
