They police that??? It looks pretty hard to monitor?

Ukodus · #8 07-09-2009, 06:08 PM

Potential Co Driver needed. Let me know.

FXM2 · #9 07-09-2009, 06:09 PM

Anyone else with a fast boat???????????????

Damn! I was looking forward to seeing the country for the first time. Oh well, if Chinaonnitrous is still down then I am. My leave already got approved for the time allotted, so I would be down to hang out in southern florida if anything.

Glad to hear! We're all pretty bummed too because we had some great stuff lined up for the original event. That said, this run has a ton of potential too. Not to mention pool parties!

We're committed, just spoke to Mr. Marinegoingtosleepat9pmduetoriflepracticeat8am, back to our original plan, we're going to drive to Georgia, do the rally thing...

Post-rally stuff...perhaps...

Deno, if you want to drive to Cali, we can do that....since I have to go back there anyway!

I'll do Key West to Ca.

I have to go home after the rally, hahaha.

**diablesse** · #16 07-10-2009, 12:31 AM

wow china, you guys are hard core!

Ryan, are you seriously driving out to CA????

**Chris** · #17 07-10-2009, 12:32 AM

Don't tell Alicia... I'm in for CA. I'm goin to NAPA!

chinaonnitrous1 · #18 07-10-2009, 01:04 AM

^ Oh shit.

Dude I'll ship anything you need from NAPA.........auto parts. Hahahhaha

I miss Napa, I haven't been there in a while. I bought a 1995 Great Wall Cabernet Sauv, here in China. I wonder what it tastes like.

ultradriver10000 · #19 07-10-2009, 01:11 AM

I'm game...I hope I can find a Trailblazer SS in florida for my fiancee so my co-driver can drive it back with me!

dmoffitt · #20 07-10-2009, 12:26 PM

Rallying to Key West was absolutely the highlight of 2005 in my opinion. What an excellent route / destination, Chris!! Anyone who goes on this will be in for a treat, it's such a great city to party in - I was just there again this spring... make sure to check out the Green Parrot (it's off the main drag, quite a dive, but absolutely awesome when there's a band, which is practically every night haha).

I am sorry guys but this came a few days too late. I didn't think the rally was going to happen (thanks leecey) so Bobbie called and we decided to catch a few flights around the country using our rally money.

That same weekend you guys are starting, we will be in South Florida visiting Viper John. If you guys are close, we will come and visit.

The next weekend, we are flying out to L.A. to see the Pacific Ocean. This should be fun seeing how she likes to jump time zones.

Now if I was going, I would bring my boat Franky. Its not a Donzi but she still likes to go fast. It is a 26ft Chaparral that gets up to about 51kph. I want to trade up and get a Formula or

On another note, I heard they have Poker Runs for wave runners. Miami to Key West...what a blast going almost 80mph on a jet ski.

Have fun without us but we are sure we will be in touch with you guys along the way!

MoMoPrez · #22 07-10-2009, 01:05 PM

Oh no! I'm bummed, I can't make it... My brother's wedding is that weekend. Otherwise I'd be down!!! Maybe next time

votblindub · #23 07-10-2009, 01:26 PM

oh man. i wish i could make something like this! i gotta do maintenance on teh car though. thats kinda pricey, but im doing upgrades cuz itll be at a shop and getting on a lift and getting taken apart. may as well, rite? please, whoever goes, take LOADS of photos and videos and let the rest of us bums know how much fun u had!
