Screw school I'm there. It's funny how school vacation dates are always slightly off. Rallysprint in Oklahoma not possible due to this... Spring break is a week off from Mexico WRC. Whanh whannh whannh etc.

I'll be there but I dont plan this far in advance

Good point. If any teams need someone who is mechanically competent to assist let me know. I wanted to help with the rally up in Colorado, but the timing was bad. This time I am there!

I always said if WRC came to the US I would go. This isn't the US, but who's counting!

I have brought it up to my wife and she is down. I threw out the idea of driving based on the simple fact that Subaru does not exist in Mexico and one would in a very upleaseant position if something went wrong. Flying Aviacsa from Houston to Leon for 2 is just under $600. I am really focused on it and I hope it works out.

One of my concerns was getting quality 91 octane gas on the way down. Is that a reasonable concern or should that not be a problem?

Also, how long do you expect it to take from Houston? From Austin?

i dont think the quality of gas is too good...from all the times we crossed over from laredo...alll i can remember is how crappy the gas was.....i may have changed i havent really driven in nuevo laredo in a long time......


as far as the time and distance i think it is about 400 to 600 miles from NL....it is about a 3 hr drive to laredo from austin....i do that all the time...like i said i have family there...so if anyone wants to drive down there and stay the night or something like that let me know.......from laredo it would probably be about anywhere from a 6 to 10hr trip depending on traffic and conditions.....i think lightbringer had a better estimate as to the situation...
