This year was my first year ever watching a live rally race, I have watched many on tv but never live.  I was more inspiried by the guys doing it with the low budget cars, that dont drive by at 100km/h+ cause that inspires me.  I would love to get a low budget car and get it ready to rally, but I need to get some more seat time.  I would love to do the Pines next year, but we will have to see if I can make it.  I am planning on doing some Nav-ex's and drive-ex's to get experience and practice, I am also doing ice racing this winter to learn some car control.  But to get back to my original train of thought, you guys with the low budget cars are my inspiration.  Everyone did an awsome job!!

I'm glad we could be inspirational.  It wasn't very long ago, that we were the spectators cheering the cars along, wishing we could be part of that someday.  Now at our first Pines, we're not just doing it, but we're actually being cheered on.  I couldn't hear it, but I'm told we got some big cheers at Castledine's Corner.
That's a success story if I've ever heard one.

If you want to learn car control, then ice racing is a great way.  I did several of those events last year.  Lots of fun too
