Race 2 is in the books. It was a hot one.

Decided to bring the Ruckus for easy commuting across the field. Definitely a staple of my race travels now. Amazing that I can fit all of that crap in the back for a weekend. I love this van.

Stock front started with three entrants: myself, an ‘03 Focus, and a Mazda 3. The Mazda ran one run and literally just left. Not sure if something happened to the vehicle or what. The guy in the Focus is a regular in the region; he and I are always competing neck and neck.

Dry ground meant all the grip in the world. The courses were short; about 25-30 seconds per run. Another super fun day.

Took the crown in Stock Front by about 10 seconds. It would have been a lot closer, but the Focus lost a battery connection during a run. Without that setback, we’d be even in just about every run. Great competition.

Onto the next weekend! Same site with the same great folks.

I really want to see if I can tuck the Z125 into the Focus’s hatch. Would make track days and the like much cooler.

I have very far fetched aspirations to swap at least an FiST powertrain into the van. Longshot swap the FoRS powertrain to make it an AWD monster

I see you too subscribe to the Forza Motorsports school of “How can I make this faster?”

This is awesome. The local region won’t let me Rallycross the F-150. Buncha pansies!
