<p>You can&#8217;t get much more nurdly than a model T, not to mention 55 of them as they commemorate the 1909 race that was part of the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition.  Wherever possible they&#8217;ll use the exact route and layover schedule as the original race.  So on July 12 the winner should be arriving at the University of Washington&#8217;s Drumheller Fountain. I&#8217;m not sure how much of a race it is when the destination date is known, but what the heck, it&#8217;s model T&#8217;s!  There is an official race website with pictures.</p>
<p>The buzz doesn&#8217;t seem to have caught on with the press however.  Aside from one contestant with a <a href="http://blog.autonet.ca/time_machines?author=268">blog</a>, who may or may not post on the race, there doesn&#8217;t seem to be anywhere yet to get roadside updates.  If you know of any, please add info!</p>
