Spieldawg Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hey guys, Been a while since I posted here, but I thought I would offer you guys an invitation to this event. With that being said the slots are going quickly.. we have 20 comitted from the start in Joliet IL. If your interested please email me!!! I want to emphasize this is not a race, but a road rally! That being said: This Rally (Route 66) is going to be one of the best rallies of the year. Each day, it’s gaining more media coverage. We currently have 5 newspapers committed to coverage with a circulation of over 200,000 Why will this Rally beat others? 1. It’s affordable. * There are no entry fees other then the decal kit. * The decal kit is only $100 which comes in red,black, or white. * All other expenses are your own responsibility but group discounts have been arranged. 2. It has two starting points. * The East Coast will start in Chicago, IL at Route 66 Raceway and the West Coast will start in Fontana, CA at the Auto Club Speeway. * This makes the starting point closer and easier to get to. * It allows the Rally to be shorter which helps with scheduling constraints. * Everyone will meet at Amarillo, TX (The middle of Route 66) 3. It’s open to 50 teams. * Spots are filling up fast but we still have room for teams to join. * A large variety of cars from four cylinders to eight cylinders, stock to highly modified. 4. It’s for charity. * The purpose of this Rally is not to make a profit. * Any profits from decal kits or sponsors will be donated to the Stefanie Spielman Breast Cancer Research Fund. * Additional donations are appreciated but are not mandatory. Please feel free to Donate to the Stefanie Spielman Breast Cancer Research Fund 5. It’s going to be a great time * There will be 50 auto-enthusiast teams. * It will be mirroring the historic Route 66. * Teams will be stopping at many of these historic landmarks 6. http://www.blogtherally.com * This blog is open to any of the teams on the Rally. * It will allow friends, family, and communities to keep track of their favorite team. * Media will be posted including pictures and video. * The chatroom will easily allow Teams to update their status of the Rally. * Particular teams will also be tracked by their GPS location using Google Latitude.

ImUrOBGYN Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hmm. This sounds fun, however, I may be already driving to Texas in March. Then again, the chances of me going to the Supra meet there is looking less likely, so who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spieldawg Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 It's crazy cheap the rooms are only 175 bucks all the way through... Not including Joliet... I'm staying there the 18th for 30 bucks!!! This rally would cost you at least 3000 bucks elsewhere.... Plus all the money is going to fight breast cancer here at OSU!!!!!!

Doc1647545523 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Like the man says, this is the least expensive cross-country rally you're gonna find. :thumbup: I'm registered. It would be great to have a CR contingent in this rally, so why not step up to the plate, guys? If you're hesitating because you're not positive you can get the days off, the worst that could happen is that you've made a $100 donation to an excellent cause. Scott phoned me and told me more about the rally. Sounds very cool. The host motels are some of the older ones that have tried to keep the Route 66 "feel" to them. He says that there are 6 spots left, so I wouldn't delay. What better excuse to give your boss/customers/spouse than you have to take a few days in May to drive cross-country to help support cancer research?

What better excuse to give your boss/customers/spouse than you have to take a few days in May to drive cross-country to help support cancer research? My company will be hoping to enter this event. We will have to see how things work out this spring. We are currently building money to cover startup costs and I am not sure this will make budget until I run the numbers.
