sorry, not speaking to you specifically. in general, it gives us a better idea of who is coming (7 yes in this thread vs 40+ attending on fb)
Morrie's events seem to land on Thursday nights all the time. Any reason why? Just curious, since I'll never be able to make it on Thursday nights due to work. :emo:
Can't make it this time around for obvious reasons, but would encourage anyone and everyone to go along, since these events really are good fun. Here's a couple of pics from the last one I went to in 2008... Stuart.
Brent - I dunno. Is there even an age restriction to rally? Scott - Ahh, he'll be fine. Just find a couple of phone books and brick to tie to his foot. Good to go!
I'll be there with the competitor chase vehicle. It won't be in the display, but it will be there. I'll talk to Frank and Carlton and see if they can bring one of the sweep trucks out there.
thanks! that would be great to get a big truck there!! And there's no reason you can't display the med sweep rig!
We'll have most (if not all) of the sweep crew out there tomorrow. I will be there with the med sweep vehicle and Frank said he will probably be down there with the big Dodge. Carlton was a maybe with the Xterra, but I'm still working on him.
^^^Can ya bring my hoodie? I'm gonna do my best to get out there for a bit. I need a few parts and rally cars are neat.
Yeah!! Please call or tex me tomorrow afternoon t o remind me...tomorrow will be a busy day and I don't want to forget. number is on the 1st post
Don't forget to wash your car's before you go, I somehow managed to win the car contest a few years ago, so it doesn't take much on my account, but it was dark and that was than, in the end it was a worthy prize indeed. I'll see if I can make it and come hang out with my old Subaru friends, since I really don't have any Nissan friends. Will there be any special guess making an appearance?
yes actually. we will have a number of local team's cars on display and one national competitor's car from out of state. rain or snow this is going on regardless!
Huge bump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Event is tonight! Rain, snow..doesn't matter....the event will go on, it will just be located in-doors
In which lot will this be located? out front by the service bays? To the right? In the Baker's Square lot where the swap meet was held? I might catch the tail end.
gaaa! i totally blanked and studied on campus till to late!!! no rally food for me..... hope its great and i'll try to make it to the next rally event!
Good times, good showing and thanks to Morries for hosting us and for the food... Excellent meet! ~Dan
I had a good time. Always fun to gather around cars and talk. Thanks to everyone involved in putting this on, I hope that there are more of these in the future. Preferably on a nice sunny day, but I guess rain is ok every once and a while.
Great time! Thank you to everyone that showed up! I beleive we had about 65-70 people there....incredible. We will put another one on before Ojibwe Forest Rally!!!
If any one else got photos please post them up! We at morries can use the photos to get Subaru more interested in the events. And then help get more swag
Get some better weather next time and I'll gladly come out to take more pics The clouds and the cold (especially the cold) reduced my camera usage.
