THE RALLY IS STILL ON! They could still use some more help, but at this time you should just go to registration. See 100AW.org for more details.

I will post pics and vids later tonight. It rocked this year because the roads were still all icy so it was like a snow drift.

Well I have to drive 6+ hours back to manhattan ks, when i get back i will tell you guys some cool stories.

Bring on the stories and pictures! I really missed out with the road conditions, I would have had a blast just getting around. Unfortunately I had to "monitor" my "significant other" because she just got out of the hospital Friday, and couldn't make it. I did follow the live updates though - was it stage 3 that cars (a few) couldn't climb an "ice hill"? Lots of "lumbering" on the last few stages :0 .......

I've been there before and had a good time. I didn't this year because...I didn't want to go down there if the roads were shitty.

Last time I went. I took some pictures at service. I saw a 1st gen and snapped a picture. I got the picture back and saw one of those old trailer signs with the words ROTARY BBQ in the background. I think my friend went though.

Sorry it is taking me so long to get pics up. HW and studying for a test I have tomorrow. I ended up driving 900+ miles over the weekend for this rally. I will upload vids tomorrow.

what winners get



I am in the red jacket. I was shining a light so they can see when the fuel cell was full. It was really dark but the flash lit things up.

Hey pinkfloyd, unless that 323 you posted has had some serious cosmetic surgery, it's actually an MX-3.

...see the light blue car in my sig for a 323 hatch...
