    so today was the Sprint for Soldiers Royal Flush Rally. it started in Wharton, NJ and went about 140 miles to Wilkes-Barre, PA, for those who are local to the areas. i'd say there were around 80 cars in attendance, which was down from the expected 100+ last week. im guessing cause of the rain out last weekend some people had to back out etc. there were a LOT of nice cars there, as you will see in the pics. i drove my MKV GTI, which is bone stock. i think i was the only stock car there, but like i always say, having a fast car doesnt mean anything unless you know how to drive it. the GTI held her own quite nicely. from my co-pilot and my count, we placed in the top ten to each checkpoint except one, and considering we were going again some heavily modded cars, M3's, S4's, RS4's, S2Ks, etc, im very happy with how we made out. the race wasnt really about how your car placed though. each car was dealt a poker card at each checkpoint, and the 3 cars with the best hands at the end won prizes. at each checkpoint there was a wait period of 10-15 minutes. it was a total blast. my friend daryl navigated for me, and my girl rode in the back and took pics. our tech package for the trip included a garmin nuvi, tomtom, netbook laptop, macbook pro, power inverter, 3G broadband, Valentine 1 radar detector, and a Nikon D50. roger, im really sorry you couldnt make it. i would have loved for you to be able to be there!

    on the way there:

    the guy with the laptop was using google maps to plot waypoints for the routes. we were not given exact addresses to where the next checkpoint would be. made a couple contacts. most of the cars there i can honestly say tho were pretty well maintained.

    Looks like you had a great time, wish I could take part in something like that but when the Dragon Tail was going on I was slammed with school stuff. Nice job repping the MKV crowd!
