Yes, dad learned from all hte time i spent...talking to him about heavy equipment...that he had it good pretty quick.Yet we dunno if we can go back, time will tell.The wrx let go, but oh well.Was cool the time i was there. I sat in a Wal mart all afternoon waiting for someone to fix the tire.Gotta get a fullsize spare.
Anyone have a wrx rim 16 inch for sale.This way I wont get stuck at dog gone wal mart.I look forward to playing with the vw.

Grading was required. I rented a tractor with a front loader and box blade and ran non-stop for 7 hours and the field could have used some more. There were some ruts that the 4-wheel drive tractor had trouble with. When I graded it the ground was still a little wet, making the sand sticky and heavy. It's a lot easier to grade gravel than sand and sil with grass mixed in. The. Box blade was tricky because the dirt would stick until the blade was a few inches off the ground then just dump in a lump. It worked better back-draging the front bucket like a dozer or grader. I got quite the education.
We had to rent the tractor because the track had a bad experience with N inexperienced operator and didn't want the liability or mantenance headache. We. An't afford to tear up the field like that again, so if you notice ruts forming again make sure a VP checks it out.
I am so glad that I don't run construction equipment for a living.

That really goes above and beyond, Charlie. Without you we wouldn't have a rallyx program!

IF I had hte chance to go with him.. I could have graded it, its a long time since i did heavy equipment type stuff.

I wanna do it for a living, why... with real equipment tires are huge, blades are massive, and can handle anything you throw at it. backhoes are good stuff, when fwd is ordered on em...you can literally go anywhere.

Or drive around backwards. (I've driven a tractor (dually) backwards up many a hill. And my coworkers had no idea what that little peddle at the back of the right foot well was for... diff-lock.)

This is why I don't miss having rallyxes at my house.

I certainly appreciate your efforts, Charlie.

Now, any results posted yet?

Here you go.

Same thing but posted on the motorsportreg official results page - The way these are listed is kind of a work in progress since it's my first time using it, I'll work with it some more to see if I can divide the final and pax results into separate sheets.

You can also get to this site by going to your motorsportreg dashboard, looking at the events for which you registered, and looking at the results.
