Since we’re doing a poker run, and time is not a factor from check point to check point, we should say: Okay, race starts at 10am for example, and you have to meet at the final check point at say 1pm. That way you’re not waiting on some slow fuck, it’s plenty of time to make a decent circuit around the capital region or something, and come back do BBQ/prizes, etc. ---

Yea it depends where the stops would be. Also if its at a business you would need their permission to assemble in the parking lot ---

I figure three hours is a good chunk of time to get away from Albany, but also enough time to come back where “home” for most people is and regroup at the end. ---

I like the Poker Run idea but that isn’t really a rally. I was thinking more along the lines of a rally that involved having a driver and copilot. basically the best team will win. Who picks the route and who drives the best. No matter what your going to have dicks driving. Plus I was thinking of a long distance rally, a few hundred miles, to and from. Everyone gets a map, no GPS. Whoever makes it there and back with the best time wins. ---

Let’s try the poker run and see how that works out first, we don’t even know if us Shift retards are capable of an organized event like that. :rofl ---

I hope people want to do this, it sounds like a lot of fun. All I know is, when Travis tried to organize even a cruise outside of the Albany area everyone flaked on it. ---
