I'd love to hear how the General Lei got on it's side in the ditch behind the parking area. I was going to ask, but had to get back on course.

Mitch hit a mud hole near the end of course, thus covering the windshield making it hard to see. He decided it would be better to drive down to the other entrance rather than trying to negotiate through the paddock, and well, he turned into the ditch. In hindsight he should have driven back through the paddock Ace Ventura style, but this was the result:

Like I've always said, the General Lei is one tough cookie so after a little help from the guy on the tractor, he fired right back up and was able to continue. No harm, no foul, just a little mud.

Not that it matters but I seem to have been scored for only five runs. I made only three in the AM due to our mechanical issues and then three in the afternoon.

The first in the morning was a "fun run". I can make it a timed run and remove that "999" time.

the golf i was driving..when it stalls,which is easy..it wont restart easliy.often has to be push started..so that is part of why it made a slow run.we hope we have fixed the problem.....wilson will be our test bed.for when we go to vir,hopefully it works right.
