(They are placed tenth and eleventh overall in the rally.) The winner of this contest is likely to win the class in the 2008 U.S. Rally Championship. *** Hampton went sideways and got stuck on SS5 losing 2 minutes - That forced him to push hard on the rough stages later in the day. He made up some time, but I'm not sure how much. I know we got faster even after the sun set - and they don't have scores for 11 & 12 right now... We're having a blast! We'll have a some fast stages in the morning and we'll be pushing to bring this one home. :) :) - Kris http://www.rallynewyork.com/news/msg00005.html

Ze'Neon in in the warm Parc Ferme'. We have to take an extra spare out and get the video camera in. The APRS coverage is weak - so I'll stop mentioning it. Recce' was interesting. Very tight schedule, some of tomorrows stages are going to be pretty rough. There was snow on the faster stages! :eek: Gotta get up at 6:45AM - More tomorrow night. Okay - Recce’ is done.
