Hope to see some of you out there for what is arguably the best rally in the championship. Personally one of my favorites and this year looks to be epic. The entry list has already maxed out (66 entries, cap is 60). Also, we may need crew as most of our regulars can't make it.

 

let me know if u need help im sure i will be available..as of now job markets looking pretty bare

 

68 registrants now and only 1 Vermont Sportscar driver? Wounder who it will be? Also don't see a certain Fiesta on that list, I wounder if he's waiting for it to be filled up so he doesn't have to add another dnf to his list...

 

If I only had more PTO... What route do you take? U.P. or down and around?

 

if im still unemployed when the time rolls around deff doing. have been to lspr twice so figured its time to make it to the other michigan rally haha

 

we always go through duluth to pick up our crew chief and then through the UP

 

Beautiful drive... total time from here to there??? 17-20 hours I figure.

 

13

 

So 14 there and 12 back... nice... must make good time though the U.P. Still need a hand? I would have to hitchhike there and back but would love to make it. I could see what days I can swap with my coworkers... Departure date and return ETA?

 

subi lover if you wanna go and get the days off id be willing to split gas with you and we can take my car

 

This is critical to get the snowball rolling... Split lodging???

 

sure or i can talk 2 my buddy out there and see if he is going and if he has any freinds that live nearby.

 

we're ok on crew now, actually full on space where we're staying. we leave pretty early because we have recce on Thursday - sometime Tuesday night. Come back on Sunday

 

hows the spectating points for snowdrift anyone know?

 

good, one of the best events for spectators

 

Darn, just noticed that I signed up for OT this weekend... I am out... Work doen't budge once you have requested their OT. Someone take PICS please... Also added this to our google calander.

 

Oh, there will be lots of pictures. There are so many spectators at this event, there are always a ton of pictures.


If anyone is thinking of coming, start looking at lodging. At least one local hotel decided pretty last minute to close for the winter this year. And with this many teams coming.....yea

Who are you thinking of, KB? Is he running R-A events this year? The only Fiestas I was expecting to see were DVW and Duplessis, and they're both on there.



I do see an Open Light Celica.....

Also, I'm excited to see Bill Caswell in an AWD car....

 

Pretty sure KB is committed to 100AW this year

 

Good luck out there guys! Won't make this one, MAYBE 100AW, but quite likely be able to make the regional stuff...

 

Friday night update?

 

Carl started 12th on stage 12 but i don't see his name on ANY of the results for any stage... not sure what's going on there, but he's steadily moving up. Higgins was winning most stages last I looked.

 

We are regional. Rally-america lists regional and national entries separately.

Thanks Chux, I figured that out a lil bit ago, just too slow to get back here and edit. Looks like ya'll are doin well! You end up 2nd for Sno??? Looks like it was that 323 and then Carl...

 

Congrats on the podium Ziptie!

 

Thanks Guys! Yea, 2nd overall and in class both days. Zenz in that little 323 GTX is speedy!!

 

Good job guys!

 

Yes way to go!!!

 

got a text from dave last night saying they finished 2nd in region and 12th overall...out of a field of 67 cars and the conditions were "pure terror" on glare ice. Way to go lads!

 

Way to go Carl and Dave.

Great job keeping it clean and getting on the podium. The conditions were so bad it was almost funny. I had Benny Hill music playing in my head the whole event. Congrats on the double second place. I will keep an eye out for pictures/videos of 171 for you, if you could possibly do the same for me.

Are you planning to run 100AW?

 

Planning on it, just a little short on cash like everyone else. I'll have to remember you were in a Subaru and not the Nissan lol.

 

Yah, it was definitely a little strange. On the plus side, I think I finally understand why you guys love these cars so much. AWD is kind of fun. I would love to try it again some time. I am almost temped to build an open class car. Max Attach money is so tempting though. 239 was our number btw.
