100 Acre Woods

[beallen25]

So I went to the Rally America 100 Acre woods this last weekend and all I have to say is that it couldn't have been any better unless I would have been asked to be on a rally team. I will spare you the 800ish pics I took and hit the high points for ya

So close yet so far away

Met and Spoke with ACP after his Evo popped while I was hanging out with one of Travis Pastrana's mechanics, and I got a little juicy info out of the chit chat, dont be surprised to see ole ACP in a ford next season

and I thought I would really like the Fiesta in person, it was really just ugly as sin, but he can drive the wheels off the thing

Man it was freaking awesome, we had two subarus with us but one was lowered and he wasn't having to good of a time on these backroads, You oughta come out to Rally Tennessee with us, it's not as big time and no famous people but still a cool enviroment,


I forgot to mention that I met the owner of the Subaru Rally Team (Lance Smith) and he had us do an interview for Rally America and Subaru America about why we like rally and why we traveled so far to come watch, and got my hood scoop signed

That sucks about your hood scoop! I had a bird just barely miss mine and nail my windshield. Do you have any info on Rally Tennessee? I'd love to come and watch.
