Thanks Pete...
It was a great run...until the endlink bracket weld (from the lateral link) snapped. Then it became a little less about fun, and more about not getting the rear end squirrelly around the corners.
We appreciate the company, the roads, and the pace.
Movie links will be here (in your PM inbox) shortly. Same for you Rich.

Well- another year, another Redwood Rendezvous, and another broken car...
And since there was no TSD competition this year, gotwrex still holds the non-existant perpetual trophy.
Glad it wasn't any more serious than the bracket, that should be an easy fix.
Rich and I wound up visiting a winery or two in the Anderson Valley and decided we didn't need to drive any further out so we came back down 1.
It really isn't the same without the rally legs and camping, so while today served to keep the tradition just barely alive on one hand, I think next year I want to get back to the Rally format with the campfire escapades, hope we can get a few people to join us for the 4th Annual Redwood Rendezvous Road Rally Adventure drive
hmmm seems some aspect of the internets is borked, I can't post pictures, i click on "Manage Attachments" and nothing happens(?) bummer....

Hey Pete, Thanks for the great day out on the roads. I had a wonderful time.
Good pixs too.
as for calling Tim the perpetual trophy winner, i have to say i disagree. Although i had driving the roads before. Christina and i clearly dominated the field last year. If it doesn't count because i drove the route before hand. Don't expect me to do pre-checks next year. I want the respect of being the winner.

HAHA! Well hopefully by next year I'll have the funds to play with cars more. Until then, it looks like you guys are carrying the torch, and doing an admirable job IMHO.
