We leave tomorrow for the short drive to the headquarters for the Doo Wop Rally Series. Though Saturday has been shortened to just one stage, we are thoroughly looking forward to getting the car back out there. As I type, the car is going through some final testing and tuning and I’m putting off making the final itineraries for service, car, and press people.

Our goal is to have fun out there. Apart from that, we aim to survive Saturday and go all out on Sunday. We’re currently starting at the head of the Gp2 pack and are looking forward to some stiff competition for overall 2WD win. John Lane/Ray Damitio in the fire-breathing Volvo are the current favorites for that title, but we’ll do our best with what we’re given. We also have to hold off threats from Dash/Taylor, Barnes/Crawford, Decker/Craig, C. Crane/TBA, A. Crane/Nielsen, and Brown/West, any of which could contend for the top 2WD title this weekend as well. It will be a tough battle, to say the least. There will definitely be some stories to tell from this one! Keep checking back for updates throughout the weekend if we have internet access.

See you on the stages!

Only one week left until our favorite rally of the year: Doo Wops. Put on by the best people who pick the best roads and run against the best the northwest has to offer, this rally is not to be missed. If you can make it to a stage, show up on Sunday and watch the Brooklyn stage. Quite possibly one of the best stages in the nation, this will be our third shot at getting on the record list. And this time, it’s all out.

See you on the stages!
