Fantastic achievement. The Evo will not be denied in the hands of a talented and dedicated racer. Shows what the little grocery-getter can do. Thanks for representing the Evo community to the fullest.

Actually Don, I made the same mistake today too. I had posted on another thread that he had won first place when actually they had not yet completed their runs. He WAS in first place as of the first runs today but they still had two more runs each. After the third run today, things sorted out differently.

Still - a trophy.

so 'splain it to an old man...
Mark trophied w/a 4th?

awesome
that's great compared to yesterday, he said he and Seb. were too conservative and were pretty far down...
did they add the two days' pts. together?
so he had to overcome yesterday's times w/greatly improved today?

what's up w/Sebastian's DidNotFinish and Mark's DidNotStart?
maybe they broke something...?
I'm sure he'll call someone tomorrow w/some details

Yes, it looks clearer on the linked results...Mark had the best time on Sunday....so a more aggressive Saturday would have put him right there!!!!

(Best time of day 1) + (best time of day 2) = total time

Yeah, looks like Mark got 4th place. And it definitely looks like something broke by those results. Let me know what you find out.

mark got sick and had to go to the EMS, thats most likely the reason for the DNS and sebastians DNS.


alejandro said he had stomach pains and then went to EMS. i think denvers comment about mark drinking more water had something to do with it.... possibly severe dehydration from working to hard??
