Another event in the books. The RallyMetro made it home again. Some repairs will be needed this time, but I completed 18(!) total runs today, and it still moves under its own power. The RallyMetro is one tough sumbitch.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve been up since 5:00 am. I need to take a shower and pass out now. Full report coming sometime this week.

One of my favorite shots. The RallyMetro in a powerslide.

It does, and it’s wildly unpredictable. I ran my last five runs that way and had to back off to maybe 75%, because it would just randomly turn the wheel this way or that.

You got some really good shots this time! Volunteering sure helped with that.

“Top o’ the Hill” was dusty and sunny (bright red legs today) but a great spot to watch all of the competitors and the changes they made and the occasional not so good entry/exit on the tight right-hander.

And that’s really what it’s about.
I really need to take this Rally crossing. Just to busy lately but your posts are motivating me.
