[DML] 2008 Celebration Exotic Car Rallye

[Oliver Holler <thehauntfactory@xxxxxxx>]

At the risk of appearing very proud, I wanted to share this news with 
the DeLorean Community so you could be proud with us.
Terry and I were the only DeLorean to participate in the road rallye 
event this past weekend at the Celebration Exotic Car Festival.
We were surrounded by Ferraris, Masseratis, Bugattis, Lamborghinis and 
every other kind of wild breed.
I can't properly describe the rush of accelerating onto the Florida 
Turnpike, seeing State Patrolmen holding back traffic in all directions 
  -so we could. . . GO FAST!
Most were much faster than us, and though our needle only goes to 85, 
we did achieve over 100mph according to our GPS.
Once well out of the city, the directions lead us onto smaller 
beautiful country roads and clues were to be found along the route. (So 
speed was not the only point to this activity, thank goodness!)
At the half-way rest stop, we all enjoyed wonderful baked sweets, and 
Terry and I sat with another couple who asked us the best question of 
the week: "So how come you two got to be the ones to drive that car?"
:)
Later, flying down the final stretch of Disney highways like tourists 
on crack, the cell phone rings.
The wind-blown voice on the other end screams: "Does that thing have a 
turbo in it??!!"
Daniel Deutsch was to be credited with that second-best question of the 
week, as he then blew past us in a Lotus?, gripping his cell phone 
firmly in the breeze.
:)
In summation, it was a wonderful event, a thrilling first for Terry and 
I, and though we were *almost* disqualified for suspicion of using 
plutonium. . .
-WE WON 2ND PLACE!
Hip-Hip-Hooray DeLoreans!!!!!!!
