    Just confirmed!

    For the donation lunch:
    We will be serving some lemon rosemary brined chicken breasts and cheese burgers, along with chips, drinks, and possibly a side. We'd like to suggest donating at least $5 to eat and support all the little critters at the Humane Society. Big, big thanks to Scotty (StanmoXT) for hooking us up with some delicious food and even coming to check out the rallyx action while running the grills!

    For anybody hesitating to try it for the first time, this is a great venue for first-timers! Forgiving surface, big run-off, friendly atmosphere, and the seasoned safety stewards know the terrain very well!

    For spectators, this venue almost always promises lots of dirt/mud flinging. Good place to bring the doggies (on leash, of course) too...
    oh, speaking of dogs:

    Also, if anyone wants a ride along, come find me in the really ugly flat black #75 4-door Subaru that doesn't sound like a Subaru.

    I think Tonie might be interested in at least a ride along, if not actually competeing and co-driving with you.

    Just confirmed!! Maaco (on Lake St. in Minneapolis) will be donating something very generous to the top finishers!

    Less then a week away! Sign up now to avoid the late fee! Think of what you could use that extra $10 on. Perhaps a really late Mother's day gift. Or maybe a car wash to clean all the mud off after the event. Or hit up Rainbow and get some 10 for 10 deals.

    Assuming I can get the car running again when the starter arrives later this week, I'm planning to have Josh co-drive again. Maybe next time (if I still own it then lol).

    Signed-up! Another friendly reminder that you'll want to save yourself $10 and sign-up before Friday night. Totally understandable though if you're waiting to get paid that day. I've been there. ;)

    Old man Dave has just offered up a nice prize! Don't worry, it won't be a Depends diaper from co-driving with Carl, although with some zip-ties and some ingenuity, it could be made into one...:biggrin:. You'll see what I mean on Sunday.

    :yumyum::yumyum:Also, don't forget that we will be offering a $5 donation lunch with all proceeds going to the Animal Humane Society. There will be some very tasty chicken breasts and cheeseburgers being cooked up fresh courtesy of Scotty (StanmoXT) and the catering company he works for, along with some Frito-Lay snacks, some of which won't be even available for another few months! Water, pop (diet and regular), and possibly a side dish will be ready for consumption as well.:yumyum::yumyum:

    Weather is looking good for tomorrow (which is a good and bad thing, I suppose). Can't wait to get some dirty seat-time! Just one last reminder to bring a little extra cash for the donation lunch we will be putting on. It should be pretty tasty, not your normal, run-of-the mill store bought food: http://www.chowgirls.net/catering-reviews-minneapolis.html

    Might have to help me jump the starter then. Just hold a wire very still between the battery and the starter for me. Just don't get too close unless you want me to burn your face again!

    Oh, caravan... what time?

    A few of us are meeting at my place about 8. That could put us at Walmart 815-830. I'd rather not stop since it's such a hassle to start again lol but if I fix the issue and the timing works out Walmart sounds alright.

    I'll probably bring one.

    Didn't finish fixing the rsvx and completely unmotivated to do anything else today so you'll be seeing a hilarious starter mod that doesn't require a bunch of dudes pushing the car.

    I was putting on the snow tires and one of the lug nuts got stuck and I sheared off a wheel stud. Does anyone have an extra one I could come pick up tonight?
