So it looks like I got 4th in my class 27th overall. If I understand that right heh.

Yes Matt, well done; fourth is an excellent finish in the very competitive Production class. The 27th overall is a bit deceptive since the overall doesn't take into account the differences in the morning and afternoon runs when the conditions were so vastly different. For example, I was 8th in Truck/SUV and 30th overall (I even beat my son Eric who was first in Truck/SUV and 36th overall); that was because my afternoon Time Only runs happened on three very dry runs and the morning run had one very wet run--I was somewhere in the 60s if you look at my morning run). Where did you get 27th? I counted you as 43rd in the overall standings.

Our group did real well taking 6 out of the top 8 places in Truck/SUV (yours truly was 8th out of the 12 cars in class).

27th 43rd its all the same when u have no food in ur stomach?

No food now, or no food during the rallyX?

I didn't have any food in my stomach for over 24hours when I posted that... I looked at it under overall and counted from the top to my name and I got 27 i'll go do it again and see if I get the same number... Its kinda hard when you have to count and theres no number by your name. Maybe I am looking at the wrong list or something?

(Wow i was smokin crack LOL I dunno how i got 27? I wasn't tryin to openly lie about it I just counted hella wrong. Scrolling while counting and loosing track of the name and forgetting must have messed me up.)

LMAO! Apparently i'm mark mager hahaha oh thats funny.

You did have the right idea, but you certainly did get lost on the way. That's okay, do it here and not on the RallyX course. I had an advantage, I printed out the results; I suspect you were counting off the screen.

It looks like I didn't do too bad. 7th out of 13 in production and the #3 Subaru in that class.

Sweet, 5th place in open class with a bad throttle cable... I hope I get it fixed before the next one (gonna run a 32/36 DFEV instead of a DG now)

Now that I've had a chance to look at the results, there's more info on USMB/Hatch Patrol competition.

 

Open Class: mudrat was first, Flowmastered87GL 5th, Zap was 6th, John Alley 14th out of 21 entries.

 

Production Class: superallyvovo was 4th (in Jason's car), GLcraigGT 7th, Jason (bajasubevwnut) 10th out of 12 entries.

 

Production GT: XSYNRG was 15th out of 20 entries as a result of some incorrect official's advice which unfortunately took him out of a top three finish. I hate it when results are dictated out of the rulebook instead of on the course.

 

Truck/SUV: My son, Eric 1st, Sean of Rallitek 2nd, qman 3rd, 84soob 4th, a friend of Eric's on his first rallycross 5th, yours truly 8th, out of 12 entries. Brats and Bajas in the top 5 places!!

 

Time Only: Yours truly 5th, 84soob 7th, qman 10th, Zap 13th. 84soob and I had the advantage of running in the same group as Production GT which had a fast, dry course for all three runs. qman and zap ran with Open which had one wet first run. There were 15 cars in this group. Full blown rally prepped cars (and drivers) took the first four places in this group.

 

Sorry if I butchered your Boardname.:-\

Wouldn't mind knowing how you beat me by 15 seconds the first lap. . . Or how you beat everybody the first lap. . .

Its all the trunk monkey

 

Actually, for those who remember I was the VERY FIRST car out. I didnt even get the whole car over the start line and the throttle cable snapped. We had to push the car over to the side where I fixed it (took about 30 minutes)

 

I then prompty returned to grid and was given 2 consecutive laps to try to catch me up.

 

But more or less what happened is I got no 1st run, two 2nd runs and one 3rd run (in regards to course dryness)

 

I did have the handicap of a very frail throttle cable (couldnt hit the gas 100%) so I think the results would have been pretty similar (overall, not per lap) had I had full throttle use and had been on a normal run schedule.

 

I guess I just kinda got lucky in a way.

I was the first to go out with the Baha. Next time I'm telling them I broke something so I can do it over and over. . .

Hey that was my idea! ha! No... I'm going to be running the pickle in the one on sunday I just got threw destudding 4 tires. (what a PITA)

I was the first to go out with the Baha. Next time I'm telling them I broke something so I can do it over and over. . .

I didnt tell them I broke something, the car did, you could hear the cable pop... and since the idle was too low the car was unstartable without the cable on there...

 

Its all fixed now though, Richie is changing the CV's and wheel bearings and it will be back up to 100% rally shape
