Route Book is 100% complete.

Also for those not wanting to do the last leg in the dark, there will be directions available from the end of a leg back to Interstate 95 for you to make your return trips home.

um....what else... Rocks are 75% painted, not sure how the rest will get done...but we will try.

weather looks good for next weekend. using Weather.com 10 day forecast. will watch on other sources as the day draws near, but as it sits now, they predict sunny and mid to upper 30's.

Making a Giant List of notes to ramble off at the morning meeting before we hit the route.

RADIOS RADIOS RADIOS!!! cant stress enough.

Bring a Spare tire!

FIND A CO-DRIVER!

 
so not sure if I have a co-driver still ... paging Gate4JG. Please answer your PM...

 
Boy am I glad I didn't offer one of my friends as a co-driver.

My cousin can't come, his girlfriend decided that she can do things she wants, but he can't.

My co-driver might not make it because of work.

That leaves me with just one other person.

 
Me neither^, I think we'll be fine though. Out in Utah, we just stopped every so often to stretch our legs and brag about how fast we are going.

 
haha my car isn't much better... but I think for you that dont have a co-driver, I honestly believe you'll be OK... There are only a places where it might be helpful, but its pretty good at flowing... plus, I'm sure I'll leave enough tracks to know where to go..

to those who can't come up with a codriver, main thing you'll miss is the teamwork part of following a routebook. (well, that and being able to swap out jobs and both lean some stuff and have fun too)

sure, it's probly OK to follow tracks ahead of you...long as that driver actually knows where they're going. otherwise it's likely that several ppl will all end up way off course at once.

don't axe how I learnt this....

PS-- now mebbe some of youse can appreciate how hard it is to keep a rally team going, coming up with crew and codriver for several events thru a season, and actually get everybody together at same time and same place!

 
I am still co-driver less. My wife hates my hoonage (totally freaks out every time tires break free) and daughter of 15 months can't read yet, or see over the seat in front of her. Friends got family visiting. I am skipping an annual pre xmas family event to go.

 
im probably good to co-drive. im unsure about driving my wrx on gnar roads, but i want to codrive with someone that A. knows how to drive lol and B. goes fast preferably

hahaha well Skipow....my brothers car is open...i can vouch for B! A...well................ (hehe sorry bro...had to do it...it was too easy)

i kid..he can drive and will not be a boring ride that's for sure.

 
Crap, if I have a co-driver, than means I have to clean out my ballast of empty Coffee cups in the passenger side.. haha I really need to get that axle fixed saturday.., anyone wanna help..

(rob, i'm looking/winking at you)

 
The Snow/Ice/Rain mix on friday might make it a little interesting in some places... hopefully the temp goes up enough to thaw out the road a bit for gravels.. heh
