we are working out a lodging situation and other details still

this will be not too far from Bryce, and also close to Reef National Park

stay tuned for registration, lodging, and other details! Expect excellent people and a good time! (similar to previous years)

The article that inspired the location...........

".......make sure your shifting hand is in good working order, because the 29-mile section toward town is a mountainous playground of short chutes and switchbacks, characterized by sheer rock faces and a few ridge passes so narrow that the vertigo-challenged should keep eyes straight ahead........ "

The highlight color is "sand". Best I could do. I was looking for something that would more closely match the red/orange/iron-ish sandstone color of southern Utah, but all of the reds were too dark on a monitor and washed out the secondary title text. I might try a look again later tonight. I'd like to see it on a couple of different monitors also.

I'll be there. I read that article too.

Recognize the bridge?

Sweet. Thanks Gregor.

Can't wait!!

Giddyup! Looks like a great location. Closer for NorCal & SoCal. So they have no excuses. Longer trip for AZ Anyone have a quick way around that little ditch at the north end of our state?

Evel was going to use a rocket...

Just this last weekend I was participating in the PCA-SVR CRAB weekend. There was a person from PCA-SNR there who was organizing a tour that was going to do the US 50 route all the way across the state. This would be the route for us NorCal guys. He said it was one of the most interesting drives you could do. Extreme rural Nevada. Sounds like fun. I hope I can make this one.

I'm planning on it, just hope the car is back together. Went to the painters end of Nov and he said it would be done by the end of Jan. Talked to him on Monday and he said another month.

Current condition A/O about 3 weeks ago.- not really much progress but lots of excuses.

Is there any worthy paint squirter in Colorado whatsoever?

Nice video Greg, where did ya get that?

We are really looking forward to this run!!!!!

Yes and he's on my payroll. My 911 goes to him next week for some touch ups.

He painted my white six, and did work on my signal orange, anyone that has seen either car can attest to his quality of work.

Hijack over.

See you guys in Utah

I can attest to that, and the paint is sooo good that application and removal of copious quantities of blue tape have no discernible effect.....

Nothing like a good faceplant to spice up the night! ...let alone two!!!!

ok Ferg....can I afford him?

Google Maps tells us NorCal guys to head south and go through VEGAS!!!

Bay Area to Vegas on Thurs 18. (10 hour drive)
Vegas to Torrey on Fri 19. (5 hour drive)

Torrey to Bakersfield on Sun 21. (9.5 hour drive)
Bakersfield to Bay Area on Mon 22. (5 hour drive)

Hopefully you will keep your clothes on this time.

It's 3400 miles round trip for me...

It is 420 miles for me round trip. But....we are taking both cars so doesnt that mean it is 840 miles round trip for us?

"Some more beans, Mr. Taggert?"

There's this cool site called google maps that will tell you directions and mileage from your house to Torrey UT. That's a long drive for you guys. That swappin a trailer idea sounds like a good one.

Do we book the hotel Or ?
I drove 1400 for slits maybe last swap meet

Ever been to southern Utah? It's worth the trip...

It really does look like these pics: Google images link
