Tom Lawless wins Rally Tennessee 2009

Just got back from Rally Tennessee. Tom Lawless came in first and Martin Donnelly came in third. We are very happy for the finish's it was a rough weekend. Very hot, humid, and every now and then rain showers.

I've wondered, is the "rapid hiss" just the BOV or a form of anti-lag?

That hiss is called a turbo chirp. We do not run blow off valves on our cars.

Lawless is a hell of a driver. Competed in Rally Ireland a few years back in an Evo. I always enjoy watching him at Rally NY when he's there. You'll have to put in a good word for the locals in upstate ny and convince both crews to run Black River Stages this year. Most of the irish contingent, the evos specifically, pulled out last year. The spectators were not pleased since the year before had a bunch of them, including Donnelly and McCormack back when he had the 6. I'd love to see Lawless run the roads up here.
