Talking with a few of the guys last night, sounds like a crazy rally. 70 miles of night stages, it a downpour, with 70mph winds.

Oh..a real rally. Sweep collecting time cards, I bet that helps keep things on time.

Time warp back to the 70's? I think I'm having some childhood memories surface.

6 of 15 fwd starters still running, and 3 of 6 rwd starters still running. Looks like an epic adventure for those that entered. YOu know it is tough when 7 minutes separates 1st from 5th.....

I'm so sad I'm not there. The misery of the stages sounds like... Well, awesome!

Try putting in some wrenching time on your car then. It looked just about the same as it did when I pulled my car from the shop in April, except there was a subaru motor in front of it.

Yeah, it rained non-stop on friday. Serious mud and ruts and crazyness. Everyone was fogging over. I towed vanway's fiesta 65 miles through the storm with my volvo so we could replace the clutch inside overnight.

Super jealous that I wasnt running this year.
