Hi Everyone,

The approvals will allow

I am working closely with Ross on getting a schedule for this winter. I will keep you post on this. I am looking for pictures of rally cars for my website. If anyone is interested please send me your pics with the drivers name, co drivers name, date, and location. I will post them up on my website in the next few weeks.

Excellent, and thank you for all your work. Will it be possible to rent the facility for car testing and how much would it cost? I belive that we spoke about it about a year ago and you had some ideas...

Thanks John,

In the spring time we will be screening the dirt for the gravel and making a 2 km Rally X course. This is our first plan of development. Rob and I are planning to purchase a 4000L fuel tank so we can purchase our fuel early at the low prices of fuel. We have a feeling that the fuel prices will go up in the Spring. We already started with the layout and have start with some of the gravel in place on the course. It will take a couple of months in the spring to finish the course. We still have lots of room for a winter course in our pit area. We put more gravel in the pits for a smoother ride (no more big rocks) I will know more about our winter schedule in the next week or two.

I will know about prices and rental of the facility in the next couple of weeks too. I am working with Ross on this and we still need to confirm on dates and prices.
