    2014 Sturgis Mustang Rally

    SVOCOP has attended the Sturgis Mustang Rally the past two years and will be there again this year. The Sturgis (South Dakota) Mustang Rally runs from August 27th to the 31st. Look here for more information: http://sturgismustangrally.com/ If you visit the rally, look us up (or send a PM and we can meet up).

    Check back to this thread to see some of the travels to and events of the rally.

    In the past years, we've never been short of Tech Sessions; however, without Tony in attendance this year (he will be missed) we're having to search for one. This year we'll do a tech session on how to stop your steering column from squeaking by replacing the upper bearing. We'll take a few pictures for those that are interested. Other tech sessions "as required".

    The countdown has begun!

    I wish we could be there! Working on getting the new shirts ready for delivery to the rental house.
    I have the following orders submitted:
    Dave -3
    Doug - 2
    Tom - 1

    If everything goes well, they will ship via a large box usps priority flat rate shipping to the rental house.
    There's nothing more to see here, now move along...

    Lookin' good Dave, I will wait till after the trip for a fresh wash and wax. Hopefully my clean-up time will not be replaced by a tech session but you never know? Our forecast in Mpls through Wed looks cloudy and rainy.

    Our first full day at Hilltop Haven. SVO repair, tune, and clean up.

    SVO repair work...imagine that! Tom had to change into his work attire.

    Our chef for the evening...on the grill with the view from the balcony in the background.
    As you can see...Doug passed out while working on Tom's car.

    Not really. That's 94 octane non ethanol. That's a pretty good price for that gas.

    JT, you need to make it there next year! Yes that means we will owe you a visit to Carlisle or another big event in your neck of the woods.

    Friday Autocross pictures. Doug and Tom represented the SVOs...I opted not to compete due to the 80% chance of rain and no rain tires. I did spend some time with Doug and Tom while they competed.

    Tom on the autocross course.

    Doug on the autocross course.
    IMG_4985.JPG

    Doug made all the gates today; however, he did hit a cone. It was impressive, it remained upright and traveled about 15 or 20 feet!
    IMG_4982.JPG

    Doug made the cut and will run again on Sunday. Tom didn't make the cut. If it rains (and there is an 80% chance) Doug will use Tom's rain tires.

    Sounds like it was payback time for Doug with those damn cones.
    Stacy should enter Tom's car.

    Did the guy with the race purpose Shelby show up this year? How about the guy that insults the field in his fox?
