We are so looking forward to the Olympus Rally this year. New roads, for us, new area. I took off Sept. 21st,22nd,23rd, and 24th. The question for us is when do we meet up with our team leaders. Both Steve and myself are volunteering as corner marshals for non-spectator corners. Pic's anyone! The la...

Sign me up...

Where we gonna meet before going to BCC(Got my AS there...)

shifter and surround? whats it out of? Shifter and the boot is out of Mitsubichi Expo CUV. The black surround is the stock piece from an auto XR. There's an electrical connector poking out from the passenger side of the center console. It looks drivable. That is the warning chime connector, it's un...

No flame throwing from me either. Well stated. Petro is still the way to go!

Hi there! Thanks for the picture up dates. I'm thinking between you and John V.
My German will come back two fold
I speak a little but understand a lot!
Keep the up dates coming. Danke, Rocky

Good looking car. But the salt air where I live would have it in rags in no time.
Thanks for sharing you pictures. Rocky

The transmission case broke, Damn It. So, we've been collecting parts for a T-5. I figured at 49yrs. old I'm going to learn how to finally drive manual. Who says beautiful ol' lady can't learn new tricks :lol: The ultimate trick is to get 20psi at my beck and call. Love it :D We'll keep you posted. ...

Sorry , It wasn't I. I'm in a black 87 XR. I did see a Red 88 XR near Kent/ Auburn area 2nd weekend in Oct. Rocky

So...this being my first time doing the corner Marshall part, it left quiet an impression on me. 1st. (this one was hard to swallow, but made some sense later) NO helping the race teams even if it's medical. Being an MA, that was hard to wrap around my head. 2nd. If there is not enough help, the sta...

John and Gang. WOW!!! I'll cont. on in the PNW section of this forum. Pics are there to view as well.

$4.19 out here on the West Cost. My XR is my daily driver. My commute is about 6 min., but this is just as expensive as a long commute because Mycroft really doesn't warm up in between start and stop. So what do we do... suck up, tank up and go gravel driving. :) It gets us out of our norm. and we h...

WOW!!
Thanks for the reality check guys. This is a reminder to be safety, fast. Both Steve and myself are working in the Olympus Rally this weekend. Hopefully, all our drivers will finish on all four wheels and cars intact!

Later, Rocky

Welcome to the site, from me as well. Steve and myself live about 3.5 hours from John V. We live at the edge of the earth. I'm the owner of 2 '87 XR4Ti's. And John V. is the person to go to if you have any questions. We are involved with the Olympus Rally that's going on this weekend. So I've got to...

Starts off this afternoon with Safety Inspection in the afternoon. This is in Ocean Shores, WA. Racing starts in the South Bend area, and continues in the Montesano area for a dusk/night race. Sunday it's in the Tahola area. We got to keep Sean and Jenne's Rally XR4Ti in our driveway over night. :D ...
