The trip has come and gone and as promised here is a trip report. It was, in a word, wonderful.
My report for last year's OC Rally is here if you're interested, it sets the stage a bit for my, my car, the rally, etc. Of course, my build thread here with some updates and fixes before I left. After the success of last year's OC Rally, I was excited to find out what they had in store for this year. It had all the ingredients of a great time: the spirit of adventure, a limited group size, non-snobbery of driver/vehicle selection, and time spent with friends old and new. The location shifted north, and was now in early September to better avoid potential snow or cold weather. Our starting point: Challis Idaho. (IMG:https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52357006082_a01667f397_b.jpg) Just like last year, getting to the start was a battle of it's own. Sure, the car was "proven" now, 3400 miles to Utah was likely to work out most of the bugs, but there were some things I had done in the interim, and old cars are always a mystery it seems. Now, my schedule the week before was a little hairy too. That Tuesday was my daughter's first day of kindergarten and I wasn't about to miss getting her off the bus. So Tuesday evening I hit the road. Destination: the middle of nowhere North Dakota. |

Glen - You're a road trippin' madman! I am so proud to see you taking your 914 out, mixing it up and using it in anger. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
