Round Headlamp Rally 1000 Sept 7-8

[rampelsauce]

Remember that E3 Bavaria that I had for some reason? Well the guy who bought it is hosting a rally over in Michigan.

Looks cool, and if the compact doesnt randomly explode, I'll be attending. Any one else want to do a 2 day rally across the lake? Probably not but I figure I'd put it out there. 

Basically: vintage car road rally that's cheap to enter and looks like a lot of fun.

Your compact doesn't have round headlights......

This looks potentially interesting. My car has round headlamps but doesn't currently run or drive...

It's just called that, and I know the guy so I get a pass. Lol. The real requirements are kinda old and something you have had your own hands in. It's not for pebble beach cars or what people refer to as checkbook enthusiasts.

That actually looks like a ton of fun.

thanks guys.  we don't care what shape they are if it's old and could potentially break down somewhere.  Part of the challenge is having a vehicle you can maintain and fix yourself, even under duress.

I really like the idea and would love to do something like this, but we're only a month out and there's very little information available about what this actually will be (other than eating a salad in Ohio). Doesn't inspire a lot of confidence... It would be cool to see this become something with a little more planning

I'll check in with Dan and his gang to see how things are progressing.

Hey guys, website has gotten a few updates! Check it out! If you'd like to join me and some other vintage/oldish car drivers for this sign up on their website. If you have any questions about it ask here and I'll try to generate as many answers as possible.

Hey fellas. If any of you are into this let me know. I'm pretty stoked for it so anyone else interested in going would be rad.

Would have been neat to do, sadly we have a wedding.  I've come to realize that pretty much any cool thing I want to do will be thwarted by a wedding, birthday or graduation.  My hats off to you guys that are in a position where you can just skip all those things.

I'm coming to this realization as well...
