The mini's were catching air! its so cute to watch their rear wheels lock up mid corner
Haha sorry, i saw the lot, and have never been their...i didnt realize 1/2 was broken up asphalt! lol, it was still pretty smooth, rutted but smooth. bumps started forming near the end.

im pretty sure most of the entries on the list are from the Bay
I think the one guy in the AWD civic lives by me, he is like 60+ years old! there is also an AWD Del Sol in Boulder Creek. He goes to quite a few rallyX's
Matt in Monterey is like 300 miles away from ANY action, except Laguna Seca and Marina...he can walk there haha.
We need to get Altamont Rallyx back, that was legendary.
I can see people not wanting to get muddy, because mud is a PITA, but this should be prime track/weather conditions. I just dont understand why there are only 17 entries, when its usually around 40-50. Altamont had 90 IIRC
I guess rally will remain dead, which is good in a way...look what "fans" did drifting...wouldnt want that to happen to rally.

Rally-x is nothing to be afraid of, so why not shell out the $50 and go have a blast for a day and meet some great people! There really is nothing to get unsure about when it comes to rally-x.

Oh, and I don't even participate for points. There are a lot of people that go and take it seriously, but there are also people like me that just go out to have a blast and throw the car around in the dirt. You know, since it's rally-bred and all...

anyways this seems like a good place to post results...
140
138.7 +1
147 (watertruck literally cut me off as i approached the start )
138.4
i really dont like the whole "sum system" compared to best laptime...dirt is so unpredictable...but the sum is more rally style i guess
And awesome pics dude! wish i went to the school so it would be me in the pics!

You probably don't quite get the definition of low. Those Minis were LOW...
...my '98 Forester (WRX struts + Prodrive LOWERING springs) is LOW...
STI's not so LOW.
I had my '98 out there for school on Saturday. Drove it home Sunday.

The first 100 images (of over 3k images) are in that gallery.

BTW, I saw at least two other yellow-shirted Nikon users floating around the area. There were an assortment of Canon users too - but I couldn't lend my camera or lenses to them...
