Old Saab rally guy here; found this site after talking with Luke and wondering what he was up to. I know Rallyho and Geoff and SeanT and likely a few others.

Not doing much rally these days, but its fun to see what you guys are doing.

Hey Tom,
The car is still going. I've yet to open the engine after owning it for over 10 years (with the exception of changing the cam). The bolt-in portion of the cage puts it in somewhat of grey area so I haven't run any stage rallies in it for a while but I've been rallycrossing it and doing some co-driving.

Hey Tom- Couple of Saabs managed to finish Maine Summer without leaving too many parts in the dirt.

Joined Eduardo and his clan in Lynde-boro a few weeks back for a house party. You shoulda been there!

Geoff,

I'm glad you've kept the old beast going. I'm surprised you haven't had to do a cam chain yet.

Mike,

I heard Maine was a bit rough. I would've enjoyed Ted's party for sure.

It was rough, but not anything unexpected. Decent test outing for the new car. It got beat up, but finished both regionals. I'm gonna take that as a good sign.

I haven't really ever had any chain issues with B engines. But there is a funny ticking noise that I can't seem to find. Its similar to a ticking noise in an engine that I got from Mike. The compression is pretty low so I'm starting to put together another engine.
