We put the Hurt on Dirt

#742 – Crane Rally Crew wins the Norton Championship!!

After an epic season of rallying, the Crane Rally Crew got enough points to win the inaugural Joshua A. Norton Rally Championship. The championship consisted of  “five rallies in four states, in six months” and as the only team to run all 5 events, we had a certain advantage. That’s not to say we were dragging our feet out there, aside from a mechanical DNF from 2nd place at the Oregon Trail rally, we finished the rest of the events on the Gp2 podium. While we were at it, we claimed fastest 2wd stage times at Reno, Mendocino, and the Mt. Hood rallies.

We’d like to thank:

Jim Robinson for organizing the Championship.

SafeDrives for the 30% off coupon.

and of course the other competitors, the volunteers and the organizers, who allow us to race.

Our next, and last event of the year is the Big White Winter Rally on Dec 2nd in Kelowna BC. See you there!
