Wow, looks like a good, full schedule. I'm hoping to be at Sandblast, TN and possible STPR. Rally WV is right around Kim's due date.

It's definatly an optimistic schedule, Rally Tennesee is tentative for us, and we may add Maine depending on circumstances. Too bad about WV, thats such a fun event. STPR is awesome too, draws tons of spectators and has a lot of media exposure which is cool.

Per IS the media exposure

Luke means real media exposure :lol:

Maine wasn't too exciting last year...at least not compared with previous years. There were only about 30 cars that entered and 16 of them were Subaru impreza's. I know that 30 cars is the norm for NASA events but the Maine rally at one time had over 120 entrants.

I suggest running the Tall Pines Rally in Canada. Sure its thanksgiving weekend but it is one of the most impressive events I have been to. It was sort of like Black River Stages but with lots more spectators.

Please reconsider coming up to the NEFR ... if it happens at all.

They #$%@#ing LOVE us in Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mike, do you still have to send flowers to the mayor's wife in Maniwaki?



Seriously, I enjoy going north of the border. And do spectators in the states do THIS anymore?

And the haul up to Baie Des Chaleurs is worth it at least once in your life:

Spectators still push. I remember being next to the road when a Subaru did a nose dive into the creek crossing at STPR, and people had to push it out of the way before the next car came flying through.
