Some notes:

I believe the Bugati was local from a dealer and not raced.

There were several rented cars.

130 Particapants, not all stuck around.

I Guess Bucky Lasick sp. was hanging around, we didnt see it.

60 + are doing the second leg in Asia

As you can see alot of cars didnt have legit plates.

We talked with the team that drove the Black Porsche w/ BBS style Black wheels and red striping (car 102). They said there clutch went out the day before and the only clutch they could locate was a 4 Puck racing clutch, lol. So thats what they did the rally on. He said San Fransico was a Bish with all the hills! I lol'd. There was mention of doing 120 mph down Sunset Blvd also...shhh! Cool Guys and they said they had a blast. No one got impounded this year.

I asked the team if they ended up getting sponsored, they said "no, we weren't lucky enough to get a sponsor."

Their car was pretty sick, the one guy owned it and had a cage and race seats etc.
 
Sorry man, didnt even think. Not often we leave the house during the week, a monday at that. There's always Cars and Coffee.

It was at Hard Rock.
