Empire State Performance Rally: I need crew

As it says above, I'm looking for somebody who is interested in doing the crew thing up near Narrowsburg, NY

www.esprally.com

We would need you at the event from Friday, October 28 - Sunday, October 30th

What I can offer: A place to sleep in a nearby motel, some food, and probably a pretty damn good time!

What I'd ask: I'd need you to help get the car physically through tech while we recce.

The services should be 2-3 times a day. Barring any extracurricular activities, they should be comprised of checking the car/suspension over for damage, helping with tire pressures, swapping tires around, cleaning glass and keeping the car topped up with Oil, Coolant, Gas, and drinking water.

Mechanical knowledge isn't exactly required. While it would help, we can make anyone with an open mind useful

As always, It's rally. Just about anything can be in the workscope, things can get interesting

Gear: I'll bring my road tool set, jacks, EZ UP, torque wrench, and impact gun. You should bring changes of clothes, a tool kit if you prefer to work from your own, and maybe a set of jackstands because I only have 2.

Team: So far it is Myself, Chris Greenhouse is co-driving, and possibly one other crew person who has not confirmed yet.

Car: Mk2 VW on it's 30th rally so it is well worn. Most of the wear items are recent, and the car tends to be pretty tough.

If you are interested, or have any questions, Please let me know

Thanks!

-Rob Russo

I'm free Sunday,

Sent a pm, they don't always go through. Let me know if you didn't get it,

I'll ping my crew guys to see if any of them are interested, but I don't know what their schedules are.

In any case, good luck and stay away from railroad tracks ;)

My message was bounced back. My email is Wally13us at yahoo dot com

My initial response is hell yes!

But logistically I don't know if I could pull it off. I'm missing two weeks of work as it is for jury duty, so I don't know if I will be granted time off from work.

And my wife's birthday is that weekend.

But the want to help out is strong

I can get the time off and Narrowsburg is only a 3 hour drive from home. Not terribly familiar with VWs but I am a GM service technician.

My e-mail is coronetsuperbee69@hotmail.com and I'd be free all weekend.

Wow, Did not expect so many responses! Wally, You're welcome to come hang out for sure. Email sent.

Thanks Josh, I don't remember there being any crossings on these stages, But if there are, I'd probably find them!

paranoid_android74 I'm so friggin' terrible with names, but I remember speaking with you at the awards dinner. Come on down, How important are real-life responsibilities when compared to RALLY?

Nick D, I never even sat in a VW until the day I was towing this project home. So, You're in. Email sent.

No problem! I'm surprised you remember me, that was a busy dinner!

Brian Morse here, ready to shirk all husbandly duties for rally awesomeness!

So Brian, does that mean you're in?

In reply to BobOfTheFuture:

My request for the time off from work for that Friday was denied, so I guess I'm not in.
