June 1996 Friday Nighter
Date: June 14, 1996 Rallymaster: Vince Plancich Summary: Vince did a splendid job of putting together a simple little rally, with just enough "stuff" to make it a "real" Friday Niter. Kirk and Terry put in some long hours on it, too. Kirk had been up since 3 am or so, and was really dragging by time awards were handed out. But the carnage! When Rod Johnson did one a few years ago, the yellow Subaru threw a timing belt and has sat in the garage ever since. This year, Vince's little Honda rebelled and quit a mile from the finish. Kim Hawley's Audi coasted to the bottom of the hill, but refused to run. This allowed some "quality time" for father /daughter until a tow truck got out to May Valley Rd. to rescue them. When all was said and done, Leg 2 was thrown because of an ambiguous speed change instruction. Scores attached. Considering that the Sonic's were in a playoff game, 28 entrants is some sort of recent record. The best news was the 8 novice entrants, who may one day be rallymasters or at least CP workers (Well, I can hope...) Greg Hightower is to be thanked for his help in checking out the course. He wasn't able to participate, even though the rally went by his house. The RI reading "wave at Hightower's..." had rallyists looking overhead when they should have been looking for a house! Results:
