Missouri Endurance Rally St Louis, MO March 22-23, 2003

500 miles 12 hours

I hope everyone has had a good holiday and I hope that you will have a good New Year too! Hopefully, you got a bunch of British car parts as gifts and are getting your cars ready. It’s just [TWO] short months until the 2003 driving season is kicked off with the 8th Annual Missouri Endurance Rally! March 22-23, 2003 starting from here in St Louis. We’ll start off at 7 a.m. for the driver’s meeting and odometer check runs. Teams will have until 9 a.m. the next morning to complete the course with awards being given out at 10 a.m. The host hotel will be the same as the last few years - the Red Roof Inn Westport. For reservations, call 314.991.4900.

I have registration forms and an information sheet I can mail to anyone that needs one. Just e-mail me back at rarushin@up.com and mgslime@swbell.net, and I’ll get it in the mail (or send it to you if you have Word.)

Also, remember, new this year is the 1st Ever Mini-Endurance Trial. Half the distance as the regular rally with just over half the time. Teams will have to make it to 5 out of the 10 stops for the regular rally and will have until midnight that night to complete it. Should be a great way for those who have never attempted a full endurance rally to get their first taste!

Plus, another new feature this year is the new rally series which consists of the Missouri Endurance Rally, the Lap of the Lake Rally, and the Abingdon Endurance Trials. The team covering the least number of total miles wins the championship!

Thanks!
