As it stands right now I plan to go Saturday. I attended 3 of these Rally's in the past and they were just amazing. There is a water crossing, and for the first time there is going to be a Special Stage near the end of the event for those that survive the 2 day rally. Attrition is amazing in this event, its always been over 50%, much higher than all of the other events in the US. Plus its a cool way to check out some amazing cars, both from the competitors and people like us who bring our cars because we LOVE cars.
At the moment I have a rattle in my exhaust, and assuming that one of my local board members can help me fix that Thursday or Friday I will be there. I hope maybe a couple other "local" peeps can attend.
