How's this Rallycross looking? I'd really hate to see another race canceled!

I sent an email today to make sure that the rain won't be an issue by Saturday/Sunday. If not, and there are no other issues on the Fairground side of it, then we're having a rallyx.

Great! Mike Whitney's promised to shave his head and pretend to be me, guaranteeing this will be my best rallyx showing ever.

Is it confirmed that the race is on?

We'll be loading up the Audi tonite. Although it cut off on me on my way home from work yesterday, and then restarted after a few mins and has run fine since. I had just gotten fuel, so maybe stirred up trash in the tank?

Haven't heard back from Ricky yet. I'm gonna call him today. Last time I talked to him was just before they had the county fair, and we were "go" at that point, so I'm assuming we're still on. But I'd like to know for sure before we show up to set up the course.

Confirmed, we're still on for Sunday. There's also something called "festival of faith" going on Sunday, on the other side of the fence. This should be interesting. :lol:

That was fun. Especially after some turns were added for the afternoon course. :P Accelerating at full throttle for >75% of the course doesn't work too well when your car doesn't like to accelerate.

Here are the results, as accurate as I can get them from the chicken scratch on the raw sheets. Hopefully the computer will work next time.
