Hi Adam
I know quite a bit about it as my company is involved albeit in a very small
way. We are the US service crew for Team Healey and we have two service
halts in this continent, one in Banff Canada and the other in Billings. The
final one is in New York. We are missing the last one as we are located in
Texas and the Canadian border is some distance away! This as far as we are
concerned is a charity event. So we are doing all this free of charge. A
daily report is being given as the rally progresses. I will keep you all up
to date if you wish, but there are several web site with details.
BTW we are looking after 3 cars, 2 Healeys and a Facel (Healey running gear)
Should be fun if they get this far after the Chinese sections.

Subject: Around the world in 80 days (old news?)
Just heard on NPR today about the "Around the world in 80 days motor
challenge" - apparently london-london round trip, including airlifts (on
former soviet air force equipment - good luck...) etc. Rather
impressive. Includes at least a couple of MGs (TD, BGT) as well as a
number of other interesting vehicles.

Anyone know anything of this, or the participents?
