Dirtyimpreza.com was formed about 2 years after this thread started, but good suggestion.

my schedule is very very free. Thursday nights are my normal busy time every week with SAR since meetings and training are always on that night.

Like Brian said, there are 6 or 7 of us on here that aren't afraid, but we can't get more than 4 or 5 at a time out for a drive or rally or anything.

then if you plan anything, please include me and the ones you think are serious about this. i am not looking to go out there and be dangerous. i just want to go out and drive on such roads and enjoy nature, not distroy it.

I'm in discussion with a guy up in Carson city who is putting together a meetup group under the name "nvsafaricars" who will be organizing some 100-200 mile tour type events in Nevada next year.

I'll also point out that my preference is not doing "group drives" but rather organizing timed rallies so cars are a minute apart from each other most of the time.

Btt if a group is small enough I still don't mind an occasional "group drive".

You guys pick a date, and I can throw something together that should be fun and educational too.

Although it looks like weather is going to get ugly this weekend, they are talking about snow to sea level....
