Some of the footage is a bit dated but this is an entertaining 14 minutes...

Enjoy.

BTW, Ford Focus rally cars come with the four girls featured near the start of the video. Unfortunately only 4WD versions though :-(

I think the blue and orange car is Otis Dimiters. Simon probably
knows for sure.

it says NCrally all on the side of it... i guess that was an assumption by me

Ken was there Matt was not. NCRally is the North Coast Subaru Rally Team.

I printed up some 18x11 posters (photo by Kevin Allen) on my office printer to give away at the rally. At Parc Exposé we were two cars over from Ken Block who had a whole bunch of high quality glossy posters on a tear-off pad. He was autographing them for the fans. So Kieran and I started autographing ours and telling people to take them to Ken and say that ours were better than his! :-D

He got a laugh out of it. Good sport. I have some DC Shoes rally driving shoes and Kerry, one of my crew, wanted me to get Ken to autograph them. I wouldn't do it.

Oh, and we finished our ninth rally in 6th place out of 10 starters in Open 2WD. Four seconds separated 4th, 5th, and 6th after 96 stage miles! If it wasn't for a golf course excursion late on day 1, we probably would have taken 2nd.

Thanks. And I'm happy that I'm not just finishing at the back of the pack.

Yeah, I heard Loeb crashed head-on into another Citroen on a transit and is out? What's up with that?
