Very few spectators as the Targa NFL rally is mid Sept. officially  "off season " but we had nice weather except one wet day. The rally stops in remote little seaside villages for lunch each day served by the retired locals in their community halls. All very hospitable and the deserts are the best . No Y blocks but there were two '49 Cadillac sedanetts this year . giddyup, C 

Rallying ain't always serious business! You really entertained each other. Was that some chost town or where were all the spectators?

Good job Carson! I'm more used to WRC rally notes but maybe it's just good for an old man like you that Lauren tells those bends couple of times to you.... And despite that you almost drove off at the beginning . But, still, I could listen to Lauren all day long...
