Planet Motorsports Black Bear Rally... Thanks

Just wanted to send out a huge thank you to the organizers, stewards, marshalls, timing and all the other people that made the event possible. Dan and I had a great time although it was a very last minute decision to enter the rally.

Sorry I couldn't stay around afterwards, the drive home was bad enough being so tired.

Thanks again.

Thanks from us as well, everyone!

Putting on a rally is a huge task to begin with, and I know things were complicated by the big honkin' washout halfway through the Ril Lake.  Thanks for making things work even with what nature threw at you.

I've got to give a special thanks to sweep as well.  I've never seen better experts at car extraction than the Ontario Sweep Team; I was astounded that you got us out without further damage (though I hope not to witness your expertise first-hand again for a while  Wink ).

A big thank you from the team of Car 9 to all the workers, officials, stewards, and everyone else who had a hand in putting the rally on.

Thanks to all you fine folks who stood around all day, battling sun, gravel and flies, so idiots like me could go do stuff with cars that cars have no business doing in the first place...

Great event Matt and company!

Big thanks to the Ontario sweep guys and all the workers.

Another thank you from Car #5!

We tried out best to have a car ready for the event but not even having run the motor virtually at all prior to the start of the rally we knew there was a good possibility of a failure of some kind given this was a used engine and all....sure enough we overheated badly near the end of SS2 and so our BBR came to an unfortunately quick end, but it was only my 2nd mechanical DNF so far so that makes it a bit easier to swallow

Thanks to all the workers and organizing committee for your hard work.  Im privy to the immense amount of work the committee must do to enable this rally to run through my good friends on the committee and I appreciate everyones collective efforts to put on a fantastic event!

Hopefully i'll be back next year and finish!

Thanks to Planet Motorsport, Hot Bits and Clearwater Designs!
