Big White Winter Rally 2009
| 
My co-driver for this event, Jesse Parkerton, and I left from my house in Port Orchard and headed towards the border Thursday afternoon, already about 2 hours behind schedule. I was in my 1975 Saab 99 EMS rally car, and he was behind me in his girlfriend's Subaru Impreza. After a parking lot headlight replacement (made easy by new well-nuts) and an hour in traffic before Everett, we finally made it to the border. Canadian officials flagged us and after answering some very intresting questions and waiting an uncomfortable amount of time, we were told we could contiue on our trip. Crossing at Blaine was our first mistake, and in choosing this route we could never know we were about to waste 6 hours of our life that could have been avoided. After an hour of traffic, an hour at the border, and an hour getting lost trying to get to Provincial highway 1, we were finally on our way. After a few mountain passes were behind us, snow started to pick up and eventually we were traveling in a pretty thick storm. We stopped at a chain up area and did a full rally service on the rally car: put on the studded tires, scraped the window and cleaned tail lights, scraped ice off the wipers, and tried to diagnose a failiure of the wiper washer pump. Eventually we continued on, with about 4 hours of what should have been our sleep time so far wasted. After meandering though more mountain passes wasting more time (they seemed to never end) we arrived at Big White Ski Resort at 8:00 AM, a half hour before registration opened. We had hoped to be there around Midnight. A quick few minutes lying down and we made it to registration at 9:29, a minute before scheduled closing. Jennifer really did a good job of keeping this event flowing, and did an amazing job with competitor relations. I'm sure we were a nightmare customer, showing up with none of the proper paper work filled out and hardly able to think or answer questions. ...

Second-hand Saab 9-2x: No trouble with normal
Special to the Star
Back when General Motors ruled the Earth with an iron fist – like, three years ago – it thought nothing of cross-pollinating brands to solve a marketing problem or fill a niche.
Corporate property Saab was in desperate need of a premium compact to campaign in a rapidly growing segment, but rather than invest the five years needed to develop a new car, it turned to GM affiliate Subaru and tapped the Impreza wagon.
It was a surprisingly easy re-badging job.
The wagon body appealed to Saab's predilection for slick and practical five-door hatchbacks, and Subaru was similarly obsessed with building robust four-cylinder turbo engines. And, coincidentally, both companies shared a common heritage as aircraft builders.
CONFIGURATION
Destined for North America exclusively, the Saab 9-2X arrived from Japan in mid-2004 as an '05 model. It had the distinction of being the first Saab to feature all-wheel drive.
