Hey..been away from the forums and the club for a bit..ya know life and stuff.

Been dedicating most of my automotive time to the BABE rally. Long story short, take a $500 car from NYC to NOLA. For more details look at baberally.com

Anyways...a long time ago I got hooked on the BABE rally and bought an '81 Rabbit out of Jon Hobus' field. Failed to get it ready it ready for 2009, so ran a Dodge truck with my buddy Rick. Had a good time. Fixed the Rabbit. Kind of. Ran it in 2010 and had a BLAST. Sold it in New Orleans and then bought it back. Ran it in 2011 and won.

Planning on runnning my '74 Thing in 2012. Yeah it qualifies as a $500 car as it was given to me. Will probably need help from club members to get it ready.

Anyway...hope all is well with everyone and will be here on the forums, and hopefully at club meetings much more in the future.

Scott

Hey Scott, it is good to hear from you. I was wondering if you were still around. Have you got any pictures from your rallies?

Good luck with the Thing next year.

Are any of the folks from Augusta still active in the club?

For anyone interested in the BABE rally and our adventures with it, we now (thaks to my lovely wife) have a website www.foolswagen.com with write-ups of each year, photo galleries, and links to all things BABE.
