Seven days straight of solid rallying for yours truly just last month ...
Shortly after midnight Monday the 19th I was headed east on the turnpike with Kenny's STi rally car in tow and a plan in place to meet up with Canadian Andrew Comrie-Picard at the Sayerville Bison Ranch near Potossi, MO. The meeting was to be a single day's testing for ACP's SlowBoy Racing built/sponsored Lancer Evo 9RS with me manning the wrenches and a chance for Kenny to log some more miles in an AWD turbo car before his second outing in the SISU PGT WRX at that weekend's Rally in the 100 Acre Wood.

I blew out of Salem Thursday afternoon shortly after getting ACP's Evo through 100AW scrutineering and again with Kenny's car in tow (making for a concerned look or two by folks hauling rally cars EAST on Mo. Rte. 72!). I got to Tulsa in time to collect eldest daughter Hannah from a rehearsal for a Shakespeare play she's part of at the Clark Youth Theatre, got home, repacked, caught a nap and then made it to Tulsa Int'l in time for a 6AM flight to Seattle.
I was in the PNW by their lunch-time Friday (Clam dinner at the Rusty Tractor in Alma, WA. = Yum!) and later found myself being chauffeured over the famous Brooklyn Tavern Stage. Go here -

American Airlines returned me to Tulsa Int'l timely enough that I could get to RealAutoSport headquarters on Coyote Trail by bed time - just a couple hours shy of 168 straight hours dedicated to US stage rallying! Rally America sanctioned three events the same weekend and I got to be involved with two of them!
