Organizer's Choice went to the Fiat 128. That's all I have from Nick and Jonny.

First a "shakedown" via the BABE rally, then an IOE win at Lemons, I can't wait to see this thing at the Grassroots 2010 Challenge.

Was there a People's Curse car destroyed today?

Rumor has it that the Curse involved a machine gun. Waiting to hear from Nick about that.

No one got the curse but there was a scapegoat car that was ventilated by a .30cal full auto mounted to the back of a truck. There was at least one block of explosive placed in the car that ripped a quarter panel off.

We won the IOE at Southern Discomfort.
We got screwed at The Real Hoopties of New Jersey and we took cars down with us.
We got the curse at Capitol Offense but they wouldn't let us destroy the car.

Absolutely a great event, please come back next year. Tiger’s Wood had a great time beating the rusty Cougar and changing transmissions all weekend. Thank you!

Yeah, AWESOME venue. It should be 2-3x a year like CMP!
The .50 cal shredding my '97 Intrepid was cool, but those guys need practice. I would say more than half the rounds missed. I got to empty a mag into the car with an AR15, but despite placing the rounds accurately in the area of the fuel tank, I couldn't get it to KABOOM.
The rusty Cougar was hella quick, and you guys got us going on 8 cylinders again with your coil pack, enabling me to go out at the start on Sunday in the Mark VIII and lay down a 1:55.113 in heavy traffic. I sooooo wanted a clean lap to maximize my time, but I had promised to stay out only about 10 laps, so I didn't get the chance. If we can fix our trans so that we can shift, it will only get quicker. Thanks for the coil pack!
