The team spent the weekend doing final preparations for the Black River Stages Rally which will be held on Sept 17 in Harrisville, NY.
Rally-moto competitor and former Saabrally co-driver Seth Strait will once again take the right seat as co-driver for the event. Seth has intimate knowledge of the event both as a competitor and co-driver.
The rally car was updated with a new gearbox with shorter gearing for the twisty stages of lewis county and new bump stops for the many jumps on the famous "goose pond" stage.

Re: Ready for Action - Black River Stages 2010
On our way home after an incredibly successful weekend. Despite a few minor setbacks, intake couplings popping off, floor Jack failures, a questionable ball joint, and a few other small issues. We kept our heads together and managed to come away with a 1st in 2wd. And 4th overall. Wicked tired and in need of showers and a good nights sleep. Completing our return home in the morning.

He said they didn't have stage notes and were flying by sight. They took a turn that was apparently decreasing radius L3 and they just kinda slid through and lost most of their speed, but then did a slow roll onto their side in a ditch, and the roof hit a tree. The car is remarkable unscathed apart from the roof.
