SERIOUSLY WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, 1) HAVE A JOB?? SHOULDNT YOU LOOK FOR ONE RATHER THAN BEING ON FORUMS WITH POINTLESS GARBAGE COMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH 2) THIS ISNT THE FIRST POST THAT YOU TALK ABOUT RANDOM ****... WHAT DOES YOUR CAR HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH SANDBLAST o_O

Geek Guy · 12-10-2012, 12:05 AM

First off, Sandblast was moved a full month to the first weekend in March. This allows the weather to (hopefully) be better - better for the volunteers and better for the spectators!

I'll be there competing in the #2 Dirty Rallysport WRX. Car will have a new engine and a fresh tune. Can't wait!

http://sandblastrally.com for more info (as it's available).

Pointless garbage, hah. I am simply asking who is interested in going, yes I look for work daily. But there is only so many sites you can look on locally, until you exhaust your search.
Now, that said.. Anyone interested in going? the economy has affected us all, I am simply asking who is interested. This being a subaru club I figured a rally centered question would be good to ask. pointless garbage, hardly.

crazyhorse · 12-10-2012, 10:08 AM

Wait... a warm Sand Blast?! That's blasphemy! I may actually try to make it this year. Doubt I'll recognize many of the folks from this forum anymore though lol

2005wrxowner1 · 12-10-2012, 02:03 PM

I was there this year, and it was warm as hell, I was in t shirt and jeans by days end.The weather was awesome. Next year I really hope that it will be wonderful weather, My freind Sebastien Kokoszka is running, and I hope he does well this time! He drives like a maniac though, so we will see.

OhNoANinja · 12-10-2012, 04:05 PM

ive been a couple times over the last few years. Im going to try and make it again this year.

think my GTR can make it to some of the spectating spots?

2005wrxowner1 · 12-10-2012, 05:16 PM

Yeah I think so, it may not have the ground clearence but it has awd. good driving and awd may get you where you want to go. the spectator areas should be reachable by a road car.

I'm sorry but after going last year there is no way a gtr could make it to some of the spots. Just too low

SHOfast · 12-11-2012, 09:19 AM

I came out to most of the spectator spots in a borrowed slammed 240 with a welded rear, it didnt have issue getting around.

SubyRS03 · 12-11-2012, 10:36 AM

im gonna do my best to show up and hopefully the next year entering it =)

SubaruWrxNewb · 12-11-2012, 11:58 AM

I let a friend borrow my Fit Sport, he didn't have any troubles getting around. I still wouldn't bring my GTR out, lol.

fushnica2 · 12-11-2012, 12:13 PM

I'd love to go watch the show.

2005wrxowner1 · 12-11-2012, 01:25 PM

working is even better, choose a good spot. bring lotsa food, you will need it. And you can drive on the stages, what better for a subie? Some freinds n a honda civic joined us, and they got around fine, other than they hit t he gas alot and made mad ruts.

2005wrxowner1 · 12-11-2012, 01:35 PM

Wilson north carolina rally x site, does not rut too badly usually.. A little rough, but I bring my stock wrx 2005 out all the time.. It is fine with it, actually alot of fun to rally a subie.. any other awd car i think would be fine, gtr might be a animal because so much power, but put mud flaps on it, and come see.

2005wrxowner1 · 12-11-2012, 01:37 PM

sandblast stages can rut up big time, the worker stations can be tough to reach without bottoming out, i often bottom out the subie, but i am hauling alot of stuff with me too.. So that weighs it down some, and two people who are adults. But hte spectator areas should be fine. Just park where oyu can and walk if you need to.

mhoerath · 01-07-2013, 10:43 AM

i just volunteered. see ya all there!

bigcrunch · 01-08-2013, 09:51 PM

Everything is under lock and key since it's a managed state forest.

You will want to go to the website to get the info on how to spectate.

TheWooz · 01-09-2013, 08:54 PM

Im excited this will be my first rally

bigcrunch · 01-09-2013, 10:01 PM

I took a look at Sandblast site the Spectator Guides goes nowhere, Any pointers on where best action spots are would be appreciated...

killerdragonoz · 01-12-2013, 02:54 PM

will be going also. can't wait.

2005wrxowner1 · 01-12-2013, 04:54 PM

bring food, drinks, hot stuff... seats, rain gear, it is the east coast in rainy season.
we were able to put a tarp, chairs, some food and a camp stove in the back of my wrx sedan. then i had no back seat but at least we were ready. also, rain gear, in case the rain comes back. oh and a old gas heater! we were called the refugee camp because we looked like one! you will be out for a long period of time, so bring provisions for that.clothes, lotsa food and drink, shelter of some sort, (or the car) a cook stove like a camp stove if you can swing it, boy scouts: be prepared.
