It's time again to get pumped for the upcoming winter rally season. The PBX has always been the elusive unicorn for us.
40-50 teams. 150 mile dirt rally, through the Pine Barrens state forest in South Jersey. Starts out in the afternoon, Registration @ 1PM, and goes into the night ~10PM so AUX lights recommended.
For the uber serious TSD rally enthusiast, this usually starts off as one of the slower rallies. until you get lost. For everyone else, this is an excellent opportunity to play around on some serious dirt roads, hang the ass end out, and pretend like you're tommi makinen/travis pastrami/ken block.
This is not a very straightforward rally, so I find that towards the later 1/2, you spend most of your time, lost, screaming at your navigator, racing through the state forest trying to make up time. the pine barrens provides decent margins for errors (except in the cranberry bogs, if you overshoot them, you'll end up in a 10 foot ditch

)
Look for the EVO.

Why are you so mean? I have almost two months at home to do whatever I want, and you have to post this thing up when they are sending me to Fallon Nevada? I hate you.

dave you better get that subie out here! it would make a great christening. Also yeah, it's a TeamVZ event, so hopefully, if all goes well, the talon tsi will be out there as well (course, we've said that for the last 3 events so wtf knows any more).

haha, let's just say, every time we've gone without tools, something has broken. so hopefully we won't need one, but i wouldn't be surprised if we found ourselves rebuilding part of the car 1/2 way through the rally

Then I would have been so your man. Between my spare parts horde and my MacGuyverism, I am so a white trash mobile shop and rally pit crew.
