bennelson- I know a couple Indie film guys, if this does go anywhere, I could ask if they would be interested.

GPS tracking could be used to ensure( at least a little anyway) no out of the ordinary( fuel) stops.

Just had a brainwave; participants register ahead of time and purchase a locking gas cap from Rally staff( at cost) that one key will be maintained by Staff and used at designated fuel stops and the other key is given to the participants in a sealed envelope for emergencies. Penalties levied if envelopes' seal is broken. Staffers would run ahead to the fuel stops while participants were stopped. IBR does something similar with drivers licenses to promote legal driving. If a police officer asks for your license( for a speeding ticket) you loose points.

Kind of putting the cart before the horse as a rally format hasn't even been discussed, I know. I don't always think linearly.

I wouldn't mind helping get something going, but, like California98Civic, I'd REALLY like to participate.
