Subaru of Beechmont, 2nd Annual
Subaru Challenge Road Rally 6/2/2007
Subaru owners are a very unique and proud group of automobile enthusiasts. Driving a car
made in Japan with 300+ hp that corners like its on rails gives the European automobile
manufacturers fits! Jerry Alley and Scott Snyder of Subaru of Beechmont put together another
great event for the Subaru group. Before the teams left on their journey, everyone was treated
to lunch and a photo shoot of each participating team.
Last year we had 15 teams compete, this year we were up to 21 teams and Subaru of
Beechmont reserved Saturday, June 7, 2007 for the 3rd Annual Subaru Challenge Road Rally!
Mark your calendars for 2008!
We had a really good group of teams this year that were hungry for the $500 1st place
prize. With such a hefty 1st place prize we needed to make this rally a little more challenging
than most, so we threw in some very difficult
scavenger hunt items. For once I am happy
to say that no one had a perfect score. It
seems that we have finally found the limits of
how ingenious these teams can be when
push comes to shove.
Congratulations to our 1st Place team, Dan
Coughnour & Ildiko Marcus who drove a
really sharp 2002 Subaru WRX to the winners
circle. It turns out that Dan has been competing in rallies for over 30 years. After looking over his Subaru that day, it wasn’t hard
to understand that Dan & Ildiko meant business and it paid off!
Our 2nd Place team was Jason Wolf & Kevin Bruns driving a slightly warmed over 2006
Subaru WRX. 3rd Place was taken by Sandy & Steven Miller driving a 2006 Subaru Outback.
Congratulations to all who drove in this road rally!
We would like to thank our Support Teams Bill Ahrens & Nancy Snyder who did a great
job at the registration tent and scoring the rally packets after the event. Thanks everyone! We
couldn’t do these rallies without your outstanding help!

Private Road Rallies for 2008
We are finalizing our road rally schedule for the 2008 season and even looking into the
2009 season. At this point in time we plan to conduct only 25 rallies, public & private for
2008. As we publish this edition of The Rally Newsletter, we have 9 private rallies already
scheduled for the 2008 season which are listed on page 25. If you would like to schedule a
private rally for your club, dealership, company, church, tourism bureau, etc, please contact us
as soon as possible. We are receiving requests for conducting road rallies throughout Indiana,
Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Illinois & Massachusetts. We will accept reservations for 2008 up until October 31, 2007 or until we reach our limit of 25 rallies.
“Kentucky Back Roads”
Road Rally 6/16/2007
We always enjoy our drives through the hills of Kentucky on the back roads so rarely traveled. Kentucky has so much to offer the motorist who is willing to take a chance on that scenic tree lined lane that snakes into the valley below. Many roads in the state are just as they
were 70 years ago, with twists and turns that only the true automobile enthusiasts could love.
We had great weather for the day with blue skies and not a cloud in sight! Teams from
throughout Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana and even Florida competed in this event that proved to be
a more of a challenge than most of our road courses.
Congratulations to Tim House &
Marques Franklin, who drove Tim’s
sharp 2001 Pontiac Firehawk to a
1st Place finish! By the way, Tim’s
rare Firehawk was featured on our
August
2006
Captain Meldahl’s
Maze Coffee Mug.
2nd Place was taken by the
always competitive team of Sam &
Tira Rogers of the Porsche Club of
America in their 2002 Porsche
Boxster. 3rd Place was wrapped up
by Bob Maimone & Linda Gill driving a 2003 Toyota Avalon.
A special “Thanks” goes out to
Bill Ahrens who, as always, did a
fantastic job with registering everyone at the start of the rally and taking control of the scoring after the teams finished their
rally. Thanks Bill! You know we can’t do this without your help.

Picture CD’s available for all rallies
In the past we have always filled requests for 8 X 10 photos of teams competing in various
road rallies. This was a challenge for us as many time the large pictures just didn’t turn out
the way would like or the picture would be damaged in the mail. We are now offering CDs of
each road rally over the past 4 years for only $15.00 each. The first 2 years of CDs were
taken with film cameras, the following 2 years were a combination of film and digital and beginning with the 6/16/07 Kentucky Back Roads event, all pictures are digital. You can purchase
a CD of your road rally with over 100 pictures, by calling us at 812-623-5727 or by downloading an order form the “Order Mugs/Photos” page on our website at www.SCENICROADRALLIES.com
Corvettes of Hamilton
Our first all Corvette Road Rally turned out to be hugely successful with the help of Bob
Piper of the Corvettes of Hamilton Club. Bob, who has attended several of our road rallies,
asked us last year if we would be interested in conducting a road rally for Corvettes and his
club especially. Obviously we said yes and plans were laid out for this exciting road rally.
We had 20 teams compete in this
rally which drew people from at least 4
Corvette Clubs; The Corvettes of Hamilton, Brookville Ohio Corvettes Club, The
Cincinnati Corvette Club and the Ft.
Thomas Corvette Club. During the course
we made a stop at Dynamic MotorSports
for a personal tour of this facility which
builds Cobra MK III, Ford GTs and
Shelby Daytona Coupes. This is a dream
shop if there ever was one.
Congratulations to Bob & Sharon
Piper with the Corvettes of Hamilton,
who drove a super nice 1966 Corvette
Convertible to the winners circle!
2nd Place was nailed down by Doug
& Sandy Murphy with the Corvettes of Hamilton, driving a 1995 Corvette. 3rd Place was taken
by Jeff & Diana Ball also with the Corvettes of Hamilton club, who drove a 2002 Corvette in
the road rally.
A special “Thanks” goes out to our “Support Teams” on this road rally, Bill Ahrens who is
our Support Team Leader, Bob Piper, Frank Leger and Sam Sunberg. Thanks for your help
guys!

Wullenweber Jeep
What a difference a year can make! In 2006 we almost had to cancel running this road
course because the stream crossings were so deep and dangerous. This year we ran the
course and due to the severe drought conditions, we were lucky to find 12 inches of water at
our deepest crossing, Malachi’s Trap! This is the lowest we have seen the water level in the
past four years but typically in the late winter/early spring we will see these crossings with
over 10 feet of water! Next year we hope to have more suitable conditions for your Jeeps!
This road course sells out early every year and this year we ended up with over 60 Jeeps
including Support Teams and the Security detail provided by the Terrain Stompers Jeep Club in
Cincinnati, Ohio. The vehicles ranged from Jack Stedam’s great looking 1975 AMC Cherokee to
several 2007 models including Grand Cherokee, Commander, Wrangler Unlimited and Rubicon.
This all Jeep road rally was sponsored by Wullenweber Jeep, 6315 Harrison Ave., Cincinnati, Ohio, 513-574-5500. Annie, Whitey and the other good folks at Wullenwebers did a fantastic job of feeding everyone after the rally and supplying some really great prizes to the top
21 teams in the event. Wullenwebers will also be hosting their annual Jeep Fest at their dealership on Sunday, September 16th. If you have a Jeep you owe it to yourself to attend this
event which includes a show & shine, an obstacle course, RTI Ramp, Car Crushing, food, soft
drinks and plenty of parts vendors! Call Annie or Whitey at 513-574-5500 for details!
Congratulations to
Steve
and
Selina
McDine who drove a
1998 Jeep Wrangler to
a 1st Place finish! Be
forewarned
everyone,
Steve & Selina have
already signed up for
the Return to Devils
Staircase
four
wheel
drive road rally on Saturday September 29th
and plan to take 1st
Place again!
Ron Mulford took
home 2nd Place driving
a very nice 1979 Jeep
CJ-7. By the way, Ron
is also signed up for
the Return to Devil’s
Staircase, so there will
be some serious competition going on that day! 3rd Place was taken by veterans of past road rallies, Glenn &
Jenny Petty driving a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
We would like to thank our “Support Teams” on this road rally, Bill Ahrens who is our Support Team Leader, Ken & Chris Helfrich, Josh & Jennifer Claypool and Kelly Krinn. Thanks for
your help everyone!
We would also like to thank the Terrain Stompers Jeep Club from Cincinnati, Ohio who provided the Security Detail at each of the 7 stream crossings including: Tom Freier, Mike &
Angie Grubbs, Andrew Wiebold, Cody Livesay, Bill, Matt & Mike Truett, Josh Regensburg &
Emily Wilber, and Bryan Gentile. This is a great group of Jeep enthusiasts that you can meet
at the Wullenweber Jeep Fest or visit their website at www.TERRAINSTOMPERS.com

Porsches 2 Oxford
One of the largest Porsche meets east of the Mississippi was held in the historic town of
Oxford, Ohio on Saturday July 28. 2007. Almost 300 Porsches from 15 states and Canada
gathered for this annual event. The streets of Oxford were full of every type and color of
Porsche that you could imagine. By days end hundreds of people from throughout the tristate strolled thru the show admiring German engineering at its best.
On Sunday morning 22 Porsches from 5 states returned to run the Porsches 2 Oxford
Road Rally. This 50 mile road course swept through 4 counties and 2 states taking the
teams into some of the most beautiful areas near Oxford. This road rally was a bit different
from most rallies due to the fact that we ran half of the teams in the opposite direction!
This became somewhat confusing when half way through the route the teams began seeing
Porsches going what appeared to be the wrong way!
Competing teams represented the following Porsche Clubs: Ohio Valley Region
of the Porsche Club of America; Allegheny Region of the Porsche Club of
America; Mid- Ohio Region of the Porsche Club of America; The 356 Registry;
Central Indiana Region of the Porsche
Club of America; The Rally Sport Region
of the Porsche Club of America
Congratulations to Chris & Vickie Laux

Scenic Road Rallies
Commemorative Coffee Mugs
Many of you are familiar with the Scenic Road Rallies Commemorative Coffee Mugs that
have been the cornerstone of our road rallies. During the 2004, 2005 & 2006 rally seasons,
everyone who entered a road rally received one of our commemorative coffee mugs. During
those 3 years, each road rally featured a different automobile on the side of the mug. Only
72 mugs were produced for each road rally which resulted in a fairly unique mug that everyone received.
During the 2005 season several of the coffee mug colors were discontinued by our supplier and during the 2006 season the mugs became very difficult to obtain. For 2007 we
made the decision to produce only 72 mugs for the entire year and to award a mug to the
top 3 teams at each road rally. We will be conducting 20 rallies this year which translates
into 60 mugs being awarded as prizes over the season.
We have been asked by many people during this season if they could purchase a coffee
mug. We expect to have about 10 mugs left at the end of the season and these mugs will
go on sale November 1st, 2007. Our November 1st email will give everyone the information
they need to purchase one of the remaining mugs. This will be a first come, first serve basis with special stipulations listed in the November email.
We also have mugs left over from the 2004, 2005 & 2006 seasons for sale by going to
the “Order Mugs/Photos” page on our website. All mugs can be viewed in our “Photo Gallery” under “Commemorative Coffee Mugs For Sale” although some of the mugs will show
that they have been Sold Out.
Mini Cooper vs BMW Z
With 12 straight days of 90+ degree heat we didn’t think things could get any hotter on
the morning of this road rally sponsored by the BMW Store in Cincinnati, Ohio. But when
the teams hit the road, the gloves came off and each team was out to win the title of “1st
Place” for this unique road rally held in southwestern Ohio.
A couple of unforeseen circumstances cropped up within the first few miles of the road
rally. Two blocks of Madison Road was closed due to a street festival which resulted in Will
& Bev having to rewrite the first few lines of each direction packet as the teams were pulling up to the starting gate. Less than a mile down the road from the street festival, a road
sign for Plainville Road had been removed and caused a few interesting moments for the
teams. After this point it was clear sailing and the teams headed out into the countryside for

Swiss Wine Festival
The 2nd Annual Swiss Wine Festival Road Rally saw teams from throughout Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio and Illinois compete on one of the best all around road courses in the area. The
scenic 64 mile course included every possible hill and valley in Switzerland County along with
beautiful views of the Ohio River. Vehicles driven ranged from a lethal 1966 Ford AC Cobra to
mini vans. When the teams finished up the tour at the Swiss Wine Festival, it was apparent
that the number of people in a vehicle would win out over the number of cubic inches under
the hood.
This road rally was very similar to last years
Swiss Wine Festival Road Rally. The temperature
was in the low 90s with a late afternoon shower
and like last year, the Shifflett/Booker/Eagan team
took 1st Place! Congratulations to Chris & Cheryl
Shifflett, Steve & Natalie Booker and Emily, Dillon,
Katlyn & Ashlyn Eagan for taking the checkered
flag!
2nd Place went to Leslie Williams and Eddie
Rasnick driving their new 2007 Mitsubishi Raider
with less than 1000 miles on the odometer. 3rd
Place was taken by Gerald, Julie & Jacob Mauch
driving a 1997 Mitsubishi Montero with over
175,000 miles on the odometer!
