The hot rod motor went boom. Well technically the motor ran, it just had bad coolant seals and overpressurized the radiator.... which went boom. I didn't think radiators could explode. Apparently I was wrong.

Setting up courses

Im interested in talking with you and Charles about setting up courses while we drink some cold one.....

After a long break it’s that time again for our Fourth Annual Waking the Earthworms RallyCross this Sunday May 17th. We will be back at the Alabama International Dragway located just off of I-59 in Steele, Alabama. Entry fees for the event will be $30 for SCCA Members and $35 for non members. Registration will open at 8am with Tech to follow. The first car should begin around 10am. Hope to see everyone there.

not a dry spot out here. looks to be fun. one section that we've run before is under water. could be a 100 ft long mud bog. bring tow straps if you have them.

So how'd the mudX cross go?

[JohnW8]

Maybe they're all still stuck in the mudbog.

We're all glad that there was a 4wd Dakota there.

True dat. After removing one car and one tow vehicle from the mud, before the event even started, the Dakota saved the day and then proceeded to run faster than the only 2 cars left competing- Ron F. in Clays old Neon, and me in the Integra. It was an exercise in just trying not to get stuck!

It was sloppy wet and muddy when we got there, then it proceeded to rain for the next few hours! Shea, thanks for all your hard work to put this almost non-event on for everybody. I'm sure the next one will be much better! Thanks again!
