Rebecca, look there, you're a "professional moderator" already!!!!!!

And yeah RAâ„¢ has stated "we just print whatever people send us" when they had all sorts of UTTER SHIT on the Home Page deatailing the astounding second place of one of the blue Subabrats and the DNF of the poseur in the other, and no mention AT ALL of whoever won the event. Pitiful, transparent, ass kissing.

Seems that in a world where "Image is Everything" and its impolite to call a liar a liar, you can write whatever you want.

So I suggest you add "Championship" to hillclimb specialist.
Here, let's try
Rebecca, .

Wait for symmetry of sound we sound add an International flair to it (because Rebecca is such a nice name!)

Rebecca, Hill Climb Championship Specialista.

AAAAhh! Perfetto!!!

OH I can so do one better!

Signorina Rebecca la sua il numero primo co-piloti in la corsa di collina.

Mi despiace, no parlo molto bene italiano. Shit, it has been like four years since i have had a conversation in Italian much less had to write in it. Sorry if I totally butcherd that but boy John it sure sounds fantastic!

I think I just said, "Misses Rebecca it is the number one co-driver in the race of hill" Si? But since I said it in Italian it must be true! Right?

And technically, if you look at stage two of Oregon Trails 2006, you'll see Erik has beat everyone except Pastrana (+0.2) on at least one stage. I had thought Block won the stage last night when I typed that.

Have you seen the new intermediate No Coast site? There's some okay hype there for Mark and I. I felt I interjected a bit of hype into the CRC profiles too.

Hate to go against the grain but,
"hill climb specialist" or a press release with anyone called a "specialist" is polite-speak for "no experience that counts" or "may be good at something but not this."
Its a nice way to mention someone's name without embarrassing them.

Amy's evo is for sale, SYMS USA built her a nice new PGT subie for 2007 and will be running her car and Will's car as a customer car (no idea on the sponsorship that may or may not appear on either car or what the name will be).

He has also been on a DNF streak minus Laughlin.

PPIHC 2 times and Cog 3 times. Needs to finish some freaking rallies again!

top 10 with Dave Anton at 100aw in 2006 as well if memory serves me.

You can Jason also set a couple regional scratch times in 2006.

Wasn't trying to hype, just presenting what I could remember, hype would have been best free agent co-driver from colorado or something like that

Shouldn't your sig read:

Embarrassing "AWD turbo guys" specialist
Motorsport author and
gets more stage miles than anybody else for a shitload less dough

Gone fishing

Kevin a wise man once said,

"You either win, crash or suck, and I am not here to suck" I think this a proud moto that you could apply to Todd's style of driving. It's about not sucking.

Heh, heh, sounds like something Derek Bottles would say.

Thats pretty much the best phrase ever. Infact, I stole it for another forum I'm on, haha!

Oh, I understand why Todd has had the streak he has (and the PPIHC DNFs weren't really fair to have included).

I'm just stoked to see Todd back in a position to maybe rally regularly, and it would suck to miss rallies because second wasn't good enough at a rally. Todd should be able to be the PGT National champion given the current field of PGT entrants as long as he rallies smart.

The "win crash or suck" I learned from my mother who learned from either Jeff Brumiester (spelling?) or George Plesk at Rally Colorado this year. Not sure which of the two said it, but I think it is great.

I didn't say it was Todd's Moto just could be applied to Todd.

We will see what happens at Sno*Drift, all i know is we aren't crashin' and we ain't going to suck, so I guess we better do really well
