Rally Meet

I have gotten a few request to post this in here so that all of you guys and girls In washington and possibly oregon can come out and do a bit of rally racing =). I will repost what is in the post that brough all of this up. Currently the mountain has about a 1-1.5 ft of snow on it. I drive a 2003 OZ lancer and it takes it just fine. I highly suggest you have good tires. Anyway, some friends and I found an excellent really road designed for 4x4'ing but our cars handle it just fine. the roads are all compacted gravel so you gfet nice traction and the roads wind like no other. there is atleast 100 miles of road out there, some end in big turn around dead ends and other go off of the mountain. when it is dry, I have gotten up over 90mph on the straight aways and slide through the corners. I will let you know that there are tons of drops offs on the sides though. These drop offs range from a couple of feet to a couple hundred feet. I have some pictures of my rally machine =) posted below along with some movies from the nice weather and the snow that we drove through.... at night..... in 20 degree weater. Ice is fun =P. please note that some of the movies are also of us street racing a chick in a 1991 Dodge stealth. we were really bored lol. I don't think we did so bad considering we had 4 people in our car and she only had one and a v6.

Where are these off-roads located? Some of it was looking like North Cascades Highway.

Are these closed roads, or by rally racing do you just mean driving fast on dirt roads with potential oncoming traffic? Been there, done that, watched a guy from the boards nearly total his car and spent 4 hours on the mountain waiting for a tow truck.

Play safe guys!!

its rock candy mountain. It is a 4x4 park. when we go out we block off the roads so that no one else can come through and disturb us, its alot of trouble if you run head on into someone =P.
