Not bad for a first time driver and a driver / co-driver combination that never worked together.
8th place overall (out of 13)
2nd in class ... out of 2 :)
Going in the Rally Cross race in Hope on the 19th then PFR in October
A bit of car work needs to be done - not much
- revised computer mount
- camera mount
- revised fire extinguisher mount

Two weeks + 5 days to go
Mountain Trials rally is less than 10 days away
A couple of teething problems but everything should be wrapped up and ready to go before race day (actually, before this weekend)
Computer - waiting for one part - should be here soon
Motor - need to install the drive belt - need a 19 mm 6 point wrench (not easy to find)

Co-Driver on Board for 2010
Christa Monasch is on board for the races this year
Great to have am experienced Co-Driver for the F10 season!
Car in middle of work - need to remove exhaust camshaft to properly time the cam (versus the intake). For some reason, it was out a tooth.
Lift bolts replaced on the weekend and the remainder will be completed this week.
LOOKING FORWARD TO MTN TRIALS HAPPENING IN EARLY JUNE!

Racing and fixing stuff
Rallycross race in Parksville this weekend
4th in class - out of 17 cars
Very fast course - top speed was close to 100 km/hr in the straight stretch
I managed to finish the HID rally pod - thank goodness as I have to diagnose a problem with the car at high RPM's (cutting out during the afternoon session so we packed it in early)

Bits of work left
De-Stickered the car - took a while to remove the old CARS stickers - in preparation of the new stickers to be put on in May.
Rally Cross in Parksville on the April 18th weekend. Hopefully my new driving seat shows up before the event so I can install and check to see if it works.
No real work to go on the car until later on this month / next month.
