Alpine 500 it is not a race.

I have a spot #27, for the rally. There is a waiting list now for this event.

Anticipating a fellow non-club member would use the spot, I have made arrangements to offer my place to a non-club member in my place, $280.00 fee, includes all events and overnight accomodations for you and your co-driver at the Cal Neva Resort in North Lake Tahoe.

Fellow non-members of this club are attending in an EYEtalEian sportscar, I hope they will chime in.


John

P.S. I cannot tell you how much I was looking foward to this rally. I hope someone will want it and enjoy it.

Hurts to look at the car...looks like you were very lucky! The car took most of the impact. The Rally sounds like fun but I'm too far away from the start...unless maybe Howard would be my co-pilot? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/chatsmiley.gif)

fiid and I will be there in my Eye-tie car. Tobra from Sacto will be there in something. There will be at least one other FIAT guy there from the Bay Area (BARF: Bay Area Running of the FIATs). It would be nice if at least ONE 914 showed up. Mine is in their natural state, and fiid's car still isn't waterproof enough to chance it.

I'm hoping the weather will improve. This rain really sucks.

Dude, I will be there in the 914, I have a big sack of SS hose clamps for the fuel lines, and should have some seatbelts pretty soon. It gives me something to do on Rainy Saturdays. This could get ugly though, this weather pattern is going to dump a lot of moisture in the foot hills, already had a good sized mudslide on US 50, potential for more to come.

That crash must have hurt in a lot of ways, that looks to be a very clean car, nice brown interior. Looks like the car did its thing sacrificing itself for ya, I could put you with a guy who has a nice blue chassis...

I may even do movies. I have a laptop, and a camera that will do that, probably ought to stick to mostly pics though, I almost certainly would screw up a movie.

Those look like my tires (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)

It was such a fine car that if it is to be re-built, the challange will be to attempt to return it to the state it was in prior to this event.

It was a highly sorted and well developed car, a pleasure it was, to have owned it.

Nasty f-bender! I am hoping for a last minute miracle on my motor. I would love to step up to the plate and give you my $280. Forget the weather. Have you seen how gorgeous the Sierra foothills are this year?

I guess I will contact the rally boss over the weekend for his first waiting list person if interest remains this strong. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)
