What happened to Adam Crane, how was the new gearing in actual use?
why did VWs and Fucci boys fawk up? What was the prize breakdown? Why did Havas enter Gp5? Why does Hintz break his header every event? When will Jardevall be back in a good car? Hey TomB, why didn't you stop in for the Jamie Bat on the way down? John Vanlandingham Sleezattle, WA, USA Vive le Prole-le-ralliat www.rallyrace.net/jvab CALL +1 206 431-9696 Remember!

totaly forgot...and I was late to get down there before registration started out....if it helps I remembered when I got to Olympia?!?
Adam seemed pretty happy with the new gearing, the car looked quicker when I got to see it, but he had some spinning issues, so maybe it is time for a steering quickener (AND A MOTOR). Two golves lost axles at the start of day two, one lost a transmission later, Blakely Rolled, but I'm not sure why as of yet....he rolled at the same place someone else did and remained on his lid. Duplesis ended up on his side in the SRT4 The Fucci had a fairly light damage roll and continued on day 3 with some lexan action max attack results were: 1. #188 Havas/Pollard $1500 2. #42 Burmeister/Westrick Mazda Mazdaspeed3 $1200 3. #649 Crane/Grahn Honda CRX $1000 4. #591 Cizmas/Himes Volkswagon GTI $800 5. #41 Hoche-Mong/Brandt Volkswagon GTI $500 The hintz brothers were saying it was a bad quality header and they will be moving to a different manufacturer. Jardevall was in a good car, third overall in the national wasn't too bad.... -Tom DemonRallyTeam | Fine Tuning | CTS Turbo & RP Turbos | RalleyTuned | JRM | Meister Autowerks Spitfire EFI | Product Apparel | JVAB Imports | NLS | AP Tuning | USRT Add us on Facebook | Next Event: 2013 Olympus Rally June 22-23 Olympia, WA |

my question, why did Mira and block enter the regional, then mysteriously bail out after completing all of the stages with good times, is that the PRO thing to do now?

An Evo is a nice contrast to the hordes of Subies, but it's not nearly as exciting to watch. |

Carl Yardevall, hmm, didn't he drive a SAAB 99 turbo back in the day. Then a Volvo, Then an Evo 4 and now an Evo 8. And always did well.
I expect he has forgotton more than most of us will ever know about the pros and cons of various rally cars. I bet it's not all that boring riding along with him in his Evo ;-) Ted Mendham www.rensport.net |

Fast is fast, but what fast LOOKs like can be a lot different. And I say Little Timmy probably would understand and get a lot more excited to keep pushing on his Corolla project, if he could catch more of Jardevall in the Volvo, just a larger version of what he's building, than making some jump of logic to watch an Evo, then go bang on his thang.. OOOppps that sounded bad! Er, work on his car..... he he....heh!! John Vanlandingham Sleezattle, WA, USA Vive le Prole-le-ralliat www.rallyrace.net/jvab CALL +1 206 431-9696 Remember!

Well way back when I first talked to him it was non-turbo with just a 5.1 final drive a LSD, some headers and "I think we milled the head a couple of mm". But Kalle statrted with the coolest rally car in the known world, after the Escort, the mighty Saab 96 V4!!!! > > I expect he has forgotton more than most of us > will ever know about the pros and cons of various > rally cars. He's not as old as I am and I haven't forgotten tooooo too much. And yeah he readily admits the faults of the variousa cars AND his choices at how to solve some of the stuff he has done or left undone. Part of the problem is just having lust to work on the car when you're working on other cars a full week long, and we were making big round eye, head nodding 'ya know what I mean" statements, not questions about that. > > I bet it's not all that boring riding along with > him in his Evo ;-) Not at all, I's sure it'd be hilarious but I know he could go just as fast with a little better done version of his old 740. The old Swedes he talks to in da ol country are sometime a bit fawkin cornservative in some areas, and we can do better. > > > > Ted Mendham > www.rensport.net John Vanlandingham Sleezattle, WA, USA Vive le Prole-le-ralliat www.rallyrace.net/jvab CALL +1 206 431-9696 Remember!
