The 2006 SPC Rally
  


Jeff P and Tapp waiting for the green.

  
Kyle E showed up in his 95 SC2, and brought his brother and dad with him too.  Our events usually provide fun for the entire family.
  
 

  

  

An accurate count of runs & timeslips is important.  There is sort of an unofficial competition while we're at the dragstrip to set the record for the most runs.  But since it is difficult going nonstop for several hours, I needed a clever scheme...

Here Denise is being belted in for a few runs in my '92.  And since the rule states that the count is based on runs made by the chassis and not the driver... it was time to go looking for a few more guest drivers.
    

  

  

   
Here is Denise in the near lane up against her husband Jeff in the far lane.  Jeff knows who's boss - now it's time to show him.

Part of the group having lunch at a local restaraunt. Mike N, Lane, Kevin K, Deebs, Denise, Jeff P, and Tapp.

After several hours of test and tune and smack talk practice, we had a chance to square off in the final bracket.  Winners of the day:

First place: Tapp, 95 SC2
Second place: Denise P, 02 SC2

It sure was a heck of a hot day at the dragstrip.  With temperatures nearing 100 degrees (and everyone's cars running times at least a second slower than expected), we were glad to get on the road on our way back to Joliet.
    
  
Wednesday evening's activities included dinner, followed by a movie at Hollywood Boulevard.  Most of us are fans of the original Clerks movie, so we decided to see Clerks 2.  I can't remember the last movie I saw that was this funny.  You can read more about it in the Internet Movie Database HERE.

After our sides stopped hurting, it was back to the hotel for a good night's sleep.
