Time to get your registration in. This is the rally that
was originally set up by Russ Potter, I believe.

Why is it called a speedster Rally if all cars are eligible?

Ed,

From the Merriam Webster website...

"Rally: noun: a mass meeting intended to arouse group enthusiasm"

Yup, there's the other kind of Rally too. :)

Ed

If your speedster breaks down and you have to bring a roadster instead.

If you do not have a speedster and want to join the tour.

I believe traditionally 90% of the cars are speedsters.

Russ Potter would never tell anyone they cannot join us.

I am not in charge. You could contact the host.

I know there are usually 2 days of driving with stops along the way. 3rd day is a short tour in the AM. Afternoon on your own. Then banquet that night with an auction. I think it is a silent auction.

Less than a month away. I think you can still sign up.
