Wimp.
Any takers? If we got 4-5 of us i'd do it!
As long as we don't have excuses after you get beat by novices with a Terratrip.

NO! no handicaps. Its bad enough that the pros are going to make us look silly. But to do it with handicaps...oh the shame. lol
Seriously though, this is very exciting to be taking part in a rally with some people who i've greatly respected and admired for years. Now if only i stood a chance

So who's gonna be the judge of lighting? Lighting on newer cars is vastly better than lighting on old cars... so someone in a new car would have an unfair advantage. (Then again... what if someone modified their headlights to have a better output... fond memories of my old Audi 4kq with BMW dual rounds and H4 + H1 conversion kits... stock wattage bulbs outshone Hella 4000's!)
And... as the navigator... I have to say no way am I doing this thing without a computer!

If we did this it should be pretty informal....if you're judged by your peers to have anything that is unfair like lights then we'll ensure only one of them works!
I was just looking to see if there were a few people who wanted an extra challenge as the rally has been easier to be close to the CAS in recent years

He doesn't care about lights, he just needs his computer.

I like Ross' point about Buffum's event... lights or computer... but not both?

Actually, Buffum's event was lights or tires, but not both... I'd take tires, in a heartbeat!

Even though I am not sure I am entering, I like the idea of no lights and no odo. I haven't mounted my lights and I don't have an odo!

You should come! What if I need a trailer again?!
Can't go with no odo - if we do, there's no way to ZERO, which means it will just turn into a stupid
go as fast as you dare
without lights night. Fun - yes, but I really wanted to get a hang of the whole driveX thing, where you have to go fast with no wheel spin, etc.

There will be no talk of "needing a trailer"!
(Besides... didn't I mention... dad's gotten a trailer. And we both know the farm is 'fairly' close to Bancroft... just gotta limp it there.)
