2010 NW Rally-RL Report

The best part is after this sign, it is almost all downhill for that whole 99 miles! The speed limit is 50 MPH and you just drop it in 5th and lope right along, barely using any gas at all... !

Hi Everyone,
I put together a video/slideshow from the rally. It runs 7:43 long. Turn up your speakers and click on the full screen button once it loads. Hope you enjoy it!
