You mean besides Headwaters (which just happened):

http://ojibweforestrally.com/headwaters

and Ojibwe (which is coming up in August):

http://ojibweforestrally.com/

and possibly Nemadji Trail (in September):

?

The only other thing I know is is LSPR, which isn't in MN, but isn't that far (it's in Houghton, MI):

Yea, there are events here, but where are the racers? Trying to find people who live around here that race. People who maybe build cars,. or have a shop in MN.

Our little effort towards helping people find people and making good contacts is we have a rule here that we require either as the screen name or in the side bar or in the signature, a REAL FULL NAME and a real location.

nuthin, nowhere,
Fuck yooo

Look around, aside from a few people that "don't give a shit" because "everybody knows me" megalomania or paranoia---both mental diseases, everybody puts their real name and location and it works mostly.

Now if people know who you were, what you have been doing in life, what you plan on doing how old ya are where if say Bumfuck MN or Kajekawa, MN or where, they might be inclided to engage in a conversation..
Me I look at just a name, nothing nothing nothin and I think" What the fuck, dipshit can't even say hello, just jumps in with some fucked up name and (usually the real assholes who are the average consumer and "takers" start with an advert selling their project as first post) straight in..

BTW, the rally drivers are hiding in the Twin Cities, Duluth, and Fargo.


Go find them. They drive Nissan's, Chevy's, Mustangs, and Subarus.


There may even be a Frog disquised as a Mazda.

I'd look here:
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&t=h&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=112858452734231701036.00046295d84800b7adaeb&dg=feature

Davenport Racing is in MN. I thought Thomson Racing Fabrication was as well. TRF.

Here's a non-comprehensive list of names.
http://rallyracingnews.com/cgi-bin/webglimpse/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/racenews?query=MN&lines=0&maxfiles=50

Start facebook stalking anyone on that list that lives near you. Which aside from guessing you live in Minnesota, none of us know where you actually live.

I'm originally from East Grand Forks, MN but I haven't lived there since 2003. One day I'll make it to Ojibwe haha. My family has a lake place 20 minutes from Detroit Lakes.

TRF is actually Northern part of lower peninsula of MI.

Mudfinger, rally involves TRANSITS. That means long drives on open roads. It's a big part of the sport, whether it be finding a car/shop, getting to an event, or driving at an event.

I'm in MN but I don't race, I tried pretending for awhile and have a partially built Audi sitting in my shop though! It's for sale by the way... winking smiley

I think Davenport may be done. I haven't spoken with him in a few months, but he mentioned that my car may be the last one he does.
