Not too hard really - co-driver Rod McLane ended up in the last trophy
position (4th) in the AS/BS combined class. .2 behind 'rusty but still fast
- at least when tbe swaybar bracket doesn't break' Jeff Reitmeir. Rich
Fletcher had the same problem happen on his 968 - on his last/second to last
run.
Had Rod not pushed a little too hard on his left side last run, he might
have had a chance to catch Jeff. What really hurt was running off of
Harrington's index in the challenge!
We won't talk about P5 except to congratulate the Miata drivers of Alan,
George, and Rad!
Kevin McCormick
P.S. - a great run event, even with the rain, and the two shifts of
challenge workers amazed Howard! Nicely done, everyone.
