Thanks for understanding. You will love it all the more when you see it on TV". The intrepid may try 350 Warwick Brook Rd , Tuxedo. Like , truly intrepid ;)
FIRST RACE, FIRST STATE COMPLETED.
Berlin, New Hampshire was completed on May 23 rd.
It was an almost surreal experience. The event with all of the drivers going max speed. Some should have perhaps gone for a bit less "max" .They got enough footage in ONE WEEKEND ALONE to make for an awesome reality show.
We will all meet agin in Tuxedo Park, New York for the next race on June 25,26.
See you all there.......

(Derry, NH) - - The Producers of The Robin Hood Rally today announced that “The Robin Hood Rally" reality racing TV series will air on VERSUS, the fastest growing sports cable network in the country.

Competitors spend two days racing Porsches, Ferraris, Corvettes, Lotuses and other exotics in each destination under the watchful eye of a camera crew, who record every move both in and out of the cars as the drivers compete for prizes in excess of $500,000, including a Ferrari F430, a Porsche 911, a Corvette Z51 convertible, among others.
