A few final notes before the rally finish:
Brian Gottlieb, Driver, #466 Honda Civic
The evening is going awesome, this is a lot of fun. Night stages are challenging. I don't think I've run a night stage in, like, three years. I think at Mt. Hood the first year maybe, no there were two at Mt. Hood. One time I rolled. The dust was a problem on the first two stages, but they went to two-minute windows so it was really nice this time.
Chris O'Driscoll, Driver, #933 Honda CRX
I was driving good a couple times, then since we've been off the back we're just eating so much dust. In this last stage I guess I over-drove a 4 or something and just went straight off into the woods and high-centered again for a second time, so that took four minutes. So that sucked, but besides that we were driving good.
I am sorry the evening coverage has been so slim. I missed a service completely, and the Kenton service area is so spread out it is just impossible to find everybody.
