I've added some choice pics to the saabrally gallery, so people don't need to search through my huge gallery.

Luke , when you get a chance , take some pictures of the aftermath..tires, skid plate, back seat, that a-arm bolt.

I'm going to work on that highlight reel after work today so I'll post it up tonight or tomorrow.

Sweet!!!! I know I gotta work on my filming skills, but when you put all the footage together like that, it looks pretty damn good. Nice job!

I especially like how you can hear us cheering as they come down the stage (a little early in one case - but hey, I was getting the crowd pumped up). :lol:

Another video of SS3 on Saturday, John didnt get a break for a second on this stage. Notice the evo at the finish we made almost a minute on.

Man those roads were pretty crazy, I had no idea they were that tight. Great driving Luke! During the 2min video i thought twice you were going to lose it but you pulled it back together quite well.

Stage:
TurkeyBone 0:21 faster
Adolph Expressway 0:25 faster
UberDeutschland 0:36 faster
Field and Stream 0:26 faster

Hey we seem to be improving! That's a comparison between our best time last year and best time this on the same stages at WV. The car is basically identical and conditions were similar except we had a lot less tread on the tires this year.

I guess that no lift philosophy does pay off.
Either that or we need to shave the tires down to slicks prior to rally WV
