Good event and it was great to meet a few more Rally Anarchists face to face.
Good drive by the ever-smiley Dave Clark to win the open 2wd class in the Friday Regional by 4.6 seconds on a road with a couple of really mean gotchas. (Thank the RallyWest electronic timing gear, that's less than the margin of error for 4 stages) 37% DNF (Did Not Finish) rate. (Someone started a rumour that DNF notation in a logbook meant Damn Nice Finish in Canada) Disappointing entry count for the event. Seemed few liked the new Coldwater Ranch stage after recce, but opinions changed after running it... Great job on finding a new (90km/h average speed for the top guys) stage, building a partnership with a charity in the process and bringing some new excitement into the event!

Yah, the finish was brutal, complicated by the fact it was poorly marked in recce. But there is an easy fix for it.
Nicki says they are looking at more roads in the area so it isn't as much of a hike for a single stage... even though I thought it was worth it.
