Video from Mt Ascutney Hillclimb in the Subaru

[Not All There]

Its been a bit since i posted an update on our rally buildup, thought id share on on board video with one of our runs from last weekend, we placed 3rd in our class. towards the end you will see me let off for what called "break out time"

My car isnt fully caged so we have a time set (3:20) that we must get to the finish on or above, if we go below that, the run doesnt count, we get warned on the first offense, and banned from that particular course on the second one for going to fast...sure thing we got banned. The two cars who placed in front of us were both caged. We broke out on one of the practice runs Saturday morning, and then were egged on to take advantage of the last run of the weekend since were caging the car soon anyways, so ran a 3:15 with some boost issues on Sunday. It was a great time, and its just one more excuse to finish the cage in the panda.

thanks, it really is a blast, this event was run so smooth it was pretty damn impressive, once it started, things were always moving, even during problems.

Heres some pass by's my buddy got while working different checkpoints on the course.

hey, I'm still waitin' for the whole video to download (stupid dial-up), anyway the part I have seen, I noticed you keep putting your thumb around and inside the steering wheel. Anybody else ever been taught that's a bad pratice? Especially with all those trees cloesby...

 

[Not All There]

yea, and when i say this...accidents do happen, but the car felt really stable, and at the moment of trouble you better believe those thumbs wouldnt be there. After flipping two vehicles in other events its just a no brainer for me now, i go straight for the harnesses.
