Just got back home a few hours ago, I had to drive back to Bangor to drop off some friends before heading back to Lancaster County... spent the night there and did some geocaching.

I met Pastrana (again), Block (again), and Mirra as well as several other drivers. I talked to Dillon Von Way (the 16 year old kid driving the Focus) for a bit, he was pretty cool. Also talked to Scott Wilburn (#125, yellow/red bugeye) for about 10 minutes about his car and the sport and all that since he's local to me.

I was at Painter-Leetonia for the first time through, on the exiting side. Someone found a rattlesnake about 40 feet behind where we were sitting, the park rangers re-located it (it was a pretty big one too).

Made it to the Super Special in the evening on Saturday, it was a better set-up than last year because you could more-or-less see all of it, whereas last year the cars disappeared behind the trees for a bit. Was glad to see Pastrana and Block on the podium, Bacon was a surprise, but I love a good underdog.

Friday I was at the Bilo lot between 7:30 and like 8:30, we hit the store and dunkin donuts and stuff, but I didn't see anyone else come in.

Sunday we had breakfast at the diner (I try to every year), and spent the rest of the afternoon Geocaching around the area, then drove to Bangor, where we slept, did more geocaching, and then I drove back home.

All in all it was an awesome weekend, I actually think I had more fun this year than I have in the past.

Took LOTS of pictures, I'll post them up when I get around to it.

were you yelling at people if they wanted hot dogs on the way out?

I didn't make it up there until around 9, we left here around 5 and stopped twice. Not bad at all.

I wish I knew you guys by face or something, I just took a nap during the break between the two stages, haha.

hey is anyone planning on STPR this year? My boyfriend & I are definitely going - this is our 2nd rally, we went to LSPR up in Houghton, Michigan back in september. Does anyone have any recommendations on things to check out or the best angles to see the rally at Wellsboro?
