Thanks. I knew you'd appreciate me being closer. 
Wasn't it Quebec that went the route of 2WD for their regional championship like ten years ago too? I wonder how cost of living and gentrification/cityfied effect has had on that aspect. I was congratulating a local new Subaru driver in Denver, "you have now done something that only about 30 other people out of the 15000 Subaru enthusiasts/drivers in Colorado say they wish they could do, built and competed in a Subaru rally car."

I'll be up around Halloween. If car isn't ready, I'll volunteer at least! Do you think that change alienated new people? Is it just this series that is hurting or is it the whole region? Grant Hughes |

Ha, that driver neither lives in the city nor is gentrified. Freakin mountain person from what I hear . I get the point though.
To JVL's point about the rally. The 1st one wasn't smooth for us. At TC on the 4th stage, the clutch went to the floor and the car stalled. It took a few minutes of thinking to remember that I had pulled the interlock stuff from the car for this sort of issue, and it would happily start in 1st gear and move. We spent the rest of that day being careful and running without a clutch. This was just 120k mile car that I'd missed one maint item on out of the many that had been gone over. One dead clutch line. The 2nd day of the rally, 1/2 way though.. my poor suspension vendor choice reared its head and we got to run the rest of the day without any fluid in the front dampers. At this point, it was take care of the car time on the 2 'ATV' trails at idaho. We slowed down, we got the car through, and finished.
