New England Forest Rally, 7/16-7/17

I think Delorean and I are planning on heading up there, my aunt lives right in Bethel, so no excuses there. Just depends on some scheduling things that haven't sorted themselves out yet :roll:

One of these years for the rally, sigh. Gonna be stuck in the JC that weekend.

One of these weekends for everything else getting sorted out. :wink:

I, as well as Fong, will be there too.

hopefully....

I'll be there... went last year and had a blast.

Was planning on spectating, but was asked today to co-drive for someone whos co-driver just backed out. Fingers cross this pans out, biggest obstacle now is getting a hans device to borrow/rent.

Also, sort of similar, Okemo Hillclimb is this weekend.

god i wish i had the money to go! i have wanted to go to a rally for years! hopefully next year!

If you can make it up to Claremont, you can ride with me. Not sure how much gas you'd be saving, but it's an option!

man... that'd be a hike... and i only have 3 days off left this month... so a maybe, leaning towards no...

If it helps, you have a place to stay if you make it up there, just gimme a call.

Looks like we'll be headed up there thursday night at this point.

Also, a note for anyone on the fence, this year there are TWO Saabs entered in the rally. Luke will be back in his 99, and Mike White will be showing up in his "new" 84 c900 rally car. Should make an already awesome event even more interesting.

Paul

Yep... I can't wait! I'm still on the fence on whether or not I'm going to attend both days. I don't really have the gas money to blow to go back and forth twice. I do have both days off though I'll definitely be there Friday, just not sure about Saturday.

so i'm not going to make it... just got a project thrown on me, and we are slammed with jobs this week... (i just got home from a job for which we left at 6pm last night...)

Packed up, heading out in about half an hour. Hopefully I'll see some of you guys tomorrow! If you see a red 9k Aero with a TSL sticker, that's probably me :lol:

Neat little article about Luke here http://rally.gearboxmagazine.com/2010/07/luke-sorensen-and-the-saab-99/

We'll be heading north shortly, only a 9 hour drive :lol:

Rooting for #111, my buddies Joey Kale and Scott Nickerson! White and black Impreza.

Have fun at the rally guys! I'll be drinking my arse off at the VT Brewer's Festival.
