Current Goal

Leg #4 of the NASCAR TB Race 2005 is St. Jones River Trail, a geocache in Dover, Delaware. Ideally, race caches must be visited in order, so please head for Dover.

About This Item

#71 - Headed to Dover

The only special rule for this TB race (besides the normal travel bugs rules) is that TBs must be left in the race cache for another cacher for the visit to count. "Drop-n-grabs" are not allowed at the race caches. They are allowed at any intermediate stops you might make while traveling, but please don't hold this longer than the traditional amount of time.

There were multiple goal tags sent with this TB to handle the long race route that we are attempting. The tag that is currently relevant and should be displayed is "Race #4 ... Dover Int'l Speedway ... Delaware".

Thanks to the NEFGA, Blue Man, garnerway, Bushwhack Bob, geomonsterjr, and Geo13 for moving this TB to Darlington in 12th place, and for their geocaching fair play.

Thanks to Team Tigerz, ThrasherD, dream chaser, penguincacher, and RazorsEdge for helping get this TB to Bristol in 6th place, and for their geocaching fair play.

#71 Dave Marcis - Big Apple Market Chevrolet

This #71 Dave Marcis - Big Apple Market Chevrolet is participating in the NASCAR TB Race 2005 . He's racing 36 other TBs along a route of 14 specific caches near major NASCAR tracks throughout the country, see the race thread in the TB forum for details.

Rather than try to describe the career of the last of NASCAR's old school independents myself, here is Dave's own website, his career statistics straight from NASCAR, and the Camp 28 Resort in northern Wisconsin that Dave and his wife Helen are keeping busy with in retirement.

Photos along the way are encouraged! Please ensure the number on the tag is not visible in any photo's.

Thank you for playing fair!!.

Snatched this TB while I was at the races in Bristol. I hope I didn't mess this TB's lap time up by bringing him back east. I noticed he was once real close to my home when I just logged him (2 mile as the crow flies). I recognized many of the cachers that have touched this TB. Hope he makes it on his way.

Dave showed up in a cache within walking distance to the house, so it's time for a pit stop. I'll swap in some new goal tags and restart the pursuit of Martin Truex soon.
