Glen Helen Rally Cross & new CRS standing

Wooo Hoo! The Glen Helen rally cross event this past weekend was a fantastic time for me. I had put a lot of effort into preparring and made it out to some lake beds the weekends before to get some more seat time. It paid off nicely....3rd place finish in street stock class and 16th of 56 cars overall.

Good enough to earn me 100 points toward the California Rally Series championship in street stock and bump me up to first place in the standings.



One glitch in the organization at this event is that we never got to see our times until the next day. Four runs and no way to know if you were improving or how you were doing compared to the other drivers. Oddly, my morning runs were both the same time and my evening runs also the same, but 10+ secs better than the morning runs. Complete times for all classes are here: http://www.socalrallyx.com/

Next event is July 11th at Thunderhill in Willows. Going to be a loooong drive but I hear it's one of the best venues.
