The Beginning....

The Beginning....
When William Least Heat-Moon toured the country many years ago, his steed, if you will, was a van that he named Ghost Dancing. His journey of America was 13,000 miles. His book is Blue Highways, A Journey Into America. My steed will be a Subaru WRX (traded for an XV Crosstrek). My travels will be, what in the past were called, the blue highways of Virginia. Years ago, maps showed secondary roads in blue. Yes, the ones less traveled.

It's Chili Bowl Time Again!!! No, Ain't no Football, it's Racin'!!!!!!

This is an annual race. They start with about 350 racers and have elimination races from Monday, January 14, 2019, through Saturday. Yes, and there's one winner at the end. This is a video from last year. This race was won by Rico Abreu, who won the Chili Bowl two years in a row.

These cars weigh about 900 pounds and have 300/400 horsepower.






Ride along with the driver.
