Updates? Details?
Man you guys ask for a lot...
Here is all anyone knows right now.

Entries are firmly limited to 10 cars, you are strongly encouraged to have a navigator/co-driver.

If your name is not listed on the beginning of this thread and you are planning to attend- you need to PM me.

Bay area participants will start at the Washoe House north of Petaluma at 8:00 AM on Saturday, anyone wishing to participate coming from anywhere else needs to PM me.

As usual Saturday will finish at a campground.

On Sunday people are free to return home, or I will be taking a couple more days vacation up around Mt Shasta, I have a lookout rented for Monday night and will either camp or grab a hotel room in Yreka or Weed on Sunday night.

If you have any more specific questions, PM me.

Does that help?

Well I went north today, drove 566 miles in 15 and a half hours and found my initially planned route isn't going to work,

Sadly, we aren't going here;

Why you ask?
Because I didn't want to make anybody drive through 10 miles of this;

I know, anyone with a Forester wouldn't mind, but not all of us have foresters...


I still think I got some other stuff that everyone should enjoy.

So did anybody else have any questions or interest in running?

I'll need a final head/car count by about the 15th.

What percentage of the route is going to be dirt? If it's primarily tarmac :( then I'd bring different wheels.

-Brian

What I drove today- neglecting the 30 miles of serious off-roading, amounted to only about 8 miles of dirt, but I think I found another 30 miles unpaved loop that I'll look at next weekend.

A LOT of the pavement is broken/rough with gravel sections too...

But I ran the first one on my P-7s and I might wind up that way this year too (the general purpose tires are starting to show strings on the inside shoulders)

I would so drive through that.

I figured you and Brian White would have been fine, I made it but spent too much time going really slow, (30 miles took over 2 hours, averaging 14 mph) and I definitely used my skid plate- maybe more than a few times.

anyone lowered would not be happy, and anyone taking good care of their car might hate me after....

Yeah, -1 for that gnar gnar off roadin'. +1 for more dirt, but I'm in regardless, so whatever you have in mind Pete is fine by me :D It kind of screws with my wheel/tire choice though if we're only going to be doing ~8 miles of dirt.

I love that kind of slow-moving rut-crawling, and that's what the skid-plate's for, right?

maybe we should do this as a day trip sometime

mmm Subaru rock crawl. Seriously, I'd be up for it.

I'd probably be in as well, but not until I get the skid plate situation nailed down.

Damn,
Just realized that my friend is coming into town that weekend to visit. I even had the fiance excited about a drive/camping trip. Maybe a spring trip?
