No unfortunately the co-driver forgot to turn the camera on for the first stage.

Thanks Mak! It was trying times especially with the elements to deal with but Steve the head Mechanic and my guys Ryan Belge, Don Hall, and Joe A. made up huge ground with their ingenuity and perseverance and without everyones efforts and blood spilled the car wouldn't have been put back together the way it did.

Hats off to everyone involved in the rally; Service, Co Drivers, Drivers, Marshals and sponsors.

Rob is that your wife navigating? Man, your are a brave driver! I have never experienced driving in competition with a navigator. Once at the first FIA Rally Tennessee I had a ride in a service truck with Marshall Clarke ( WRC navigator) who called out the corners as he would on a stage. I remember being amazed with the timing of his instructions, even with his heavy Irish accent! I don't know If I could ever be a great team driver as you rally pilots.

thanks man.
Yes that is my wife. And her first rally ever.
She didn't get motion sickness and collected only 1 sec penalty between stages , which is great .
I would call her brave not myself, but thanks .

I'm sure couple of more events, and she will be a great co-driver. And we will understand each other much much more better, in the race. Also she will be more familiar with the paste notes and the rhythm of the car.

it was really tricky... we did set up the car around for 50 + Fahrenheit and /partly/ little rain and cloudy.
We ended up in rain and snow It was awesome!
Also the paste note doesn't shows, changed surface after the start, so if the turns get muddy after couple of cars or stages...
This is a perfect example what happens.


i like this angle better :

timetables being what they are I think our first gravel (practice roads don't count) will be in west Virginia. The car will get it's first flogging on gravel in upstateny though, at an undisclosed location. Probably mid to late June. I will make sure there are pics and video.

Yes Greg, we are working on it, as Logan stated above.

I'm really looking forward to see you guys again. This time you guys should stop by for Peter BBQ too, not just for help
