I had an awesome time all around on this rally. It really is great being able to talk about mods, statistics, and plans for the vehicle in real time and have the people you are talking with actually be interested in what your talking about.

The Jetta, however, found things a bit more difficult. So far things are looking a bit off, mechanically. Over the weekend I used a gallon of antifreeze, two quarts of oil, lost both my front smoothies, blew the right front strut, and lost 3(so far) screws on the belly pan.

Coming back into America, had a crew of 3 inspectors and a something?-sniffing dog go over my car for 15 minutes.

Jeff, thanks for being a great host/tour guide. I really had a great time and look forward to seeing everyone again.

Better numbers next time!
