Fifty cents in a bet says that you could find better closer to home for almost free that runs and drives. As good as you go in the rabbit you will LOVE driving a rear-drive Volvo. Gene with just a little practice and half descent tires I will show up the 4X4 competition. Gene why don't YOU build a Volvo (or similar) and show me up? Tom what did your VW weigh ready to race?

No killer instinct or burning desire to go fast anymore. A rum & coke in the back of my boat is a good time nowadays. Nobody stays a fast guy forever and I'm fine with that.

But Gene, there are other reasons that some of us have raced cars or moto-cross: the pure joy of it. It's fun. And it's a trip to be surprised and delighted by what you can do that you didn't know you can do. We change and the pleasure we take in even the more or less same things we did can also change. It'd be pretty odd if we didn't change. (Now if you said its gotten just too expensive for the luaghs we get then i could do anything but agree) But I have a feeling you'd still have some fun if you had a half decent car that worked OK.

It is expensive for laughs, no doubt about that. I won't tow to Canada or Pomeroy just to run an event. I'm old, tired and spoiled. The fun factor isn't what it used to be. That's the way it is. I actually have a ball helping maintain a couple of cars and scrutineering.
However...we bought and are rebuilding the 323 FWD that Nate Stowe used to run. May be just RallyX , may be a DooWop participant. Talking about building another spare Talon for Malcolm Davies, maybe I might borrow that. I just don't care enough anymore to go thru a huge effort to rally though. |

If no one wants it, put a portapower in there and push the roof into roughly the right spot, get a free 8v engine off vortex, bomb-can paint it yellow.
Up in monroe they have this thing called 'hornet racing' that John Lane can tell you all about (some pics of a nasty volvo running up there too hehe). Been thinking that may be a good death for my squished rally car too... a little red-neck roundy-round 300 lap enduro action in a bent ass rally car. They call it "stagger" I call it "bent frame" but whatever hehehe. ------------------------------------ http://www.ckrally.com |
