    The 11th Annual Lucas Flamethrower Rally!

    This is a time/distance rally meaning you don't go balls out, but rather attempt to average a certain speed between checkpoints. I'm told it's good for beginners (like me). The total course is about 150 miles (!!!) so gas up :D

    I'm going to run and a few other Audi guys are going to run. There are 15 spots total, I'm not sure how many are left, though.

    Here are the details:

    Was spending too much time trying to keep the car on the road to take pictures :) Also, 150 miles of the curviest and hilliest roads I've ever driven on makes for a tired clutch leg.

    Here's one I took afterwards.
