ok, rather odd question....perhaps the right place to ask it....does anyone know if there are any road rallies in your area? You know, the ones you see on tv that have the suped-up ford focuses and other cars running a race over dirt roads and taking hairpin turns at 90?

i'll ask around if you'd like...

allright. if i see him, i'll ask the guy down the hall who races. that is, if he doesn't run screaming when he sees me. *rolls eyes* long story. he's more afraid of my roommate than me, though. but i'll ask if i can get him cornered.

Yow, there are no rally's in Salt Lake but we do have a sports cars racing association. Not sure where their track is. We have drag racing and oval tracks as well. In fact I used to do oval track racing.

cool, thanx. I'm gonna try to set up a little auto-cross thing here in DC in a stadium parking lot if I can. It's probably going to be infinatly more difficult than I imagine but it's still worth a shot.
