Now that we are done, we can start looking forward to next year...and the fall rally!
So any hints as to what the big attraction will be for next year?

True... We will not in leaving New England again for a while.
We will be in New England only next year and you will know NOTHING about it until you get your destination sheets.
I do have plans for the next 3 years actually. The next 2 are pretty much set in stone and the 3rd is mostly in idea stage, but I have a ton of thoughts about where we will go and I'm sure you will have a blast. I'd also be willing to say that what we will be doing for our "event" will be a new experience for most of you.
Don't bother trying to guess... it won't happen.

Tire warehouse said they were going to have local tv coverage of the event. Not sure if that happened, someone from RI will have to let us know if anything shows up.

The copter was with us. He was a friend of mine that came take some pics and video for us for a few hours. He was going to film the races at the dragway, but had to head out because rain hit where he had to go land.
No more races (for a few years anyway) we have a few things planned out and racing is not on the list of things to do.
The fall rally is in the planning stage. It will most likely be a Saturday/Sunday trip in late October.
Maybe we will do a smaller scale poker run or something. I like the poker runs, they give a bit of competition other than who can get there first... remember... it's a rally not a race.
Yes I got the registration page up already because I already got a bunch of people asking when they can get their deposits in for next year. (Ohhhhhhhh wait till you see what's in store for next year. I'm already anxious.)
The Fall rally will have it's own registration page so if you sign up on the page that is up it will be for August 2008.
But for the record... Don't bother asking.. You will not get anything from me or Karoline about next year. You will get the starting location and that is IT. God I love surprises.. muhahaha

I have some ideas for a few races, but I'm not sure if I want to go the racing route again. At the dragway people have been known to break things. That puts an end to their rally real fast unless they have a back up vehicle. Although the races are fun and give people a place to go all out legally... Guess we have to see what the future brings. But I can assure you that for the next 2 years (at least) we will not be racing our cars on any tracks.

All you people that didn't have tickets to race... When we got there I paid for everyone. Racers or spectators. You were asked if you were going to race or watch and you got a ticket for what you said you were going to do. If you wanted to race you should have said something and I would have paid for you to race. That is why you were asked if you wanted to race or not at the start and again at the dragway.
Some people said the were going to race at the start then changed their minds and wanted to watch when we got to NED so I asked everyone what they wanted to do before they went in. You got the tickets you told me you wanted.
Everyone that walked up got spectator tickets. Everyone that drove up got race tickets. I can only give you guys what you ask for. lol
I didn't pay in advance because we didnt' know who wanted to race or not and also there was a GOOD chance of rain and I didn't want to shell out 1000.00 to have it get rained out and get a credit for the dragway. What am i going to do with a 1000 credit to NED? I've been there 5 times in my entire life lol.

Whatever man I threw in for the race winner, and that was the point, not really actually racing. The point of throwing a few bucks to a good charity and giving my car a rest was nice. I was told to hunt you down and get my race ticket, but dude it wasn't worth the walk. It is only a couple passes. I have been to NED on many nights so no biggie. Hopefully next time we all go I can lay down something better then my best to date a 15.1 and I think that would have taken a few people that night...only some though...
