RallyX at Big White

[Francisco]

MJB and the Prescribed Burn Rally Team will be in Kelowna this Saturday and Sunday for some winter fun at the Big White Rally Weekend. This rallyX will be a great event for locals as well as any teams coming in from Alberta...and maybe the U.S.? Read the story for more details (http://www.worldrallysport.com/node/1425).

Unless it's a once-in-a-lifetime shot! Then by all means....hahaha

Have a blast tomorrow, Chris, Ken, MJB, and everyone else out at Big White! Wish I could have made it out! Cheers!

No really. This is a heroes moment "Save the Cheerleader, save the world" or in your case "Save the camera, save Andrews sanity"

Camera is fine! Car has been better, we reached the end of the test stage and realized we had a broken rear strut. Hopefully will have it mended before the rallyX tomorrow. If not I plan on throwing myself and YOUR camera in harms way!

hahah

:p

Was tons of fun, I think everyone really enjoyed themselves. The snow was a welcomed twist making things very very interesting!

Lets say with some more practice he will be a lot better.He's quick to learn, very focused, and less fear!! For the moment I have to agree with Chris.
Anyways I found this news clip from CHBC Okanagan TV from this weekend's Rally Cross. Pretty cool.

Thanks to Jennifer, Alex, Dave, and all involved including the volunteers with the organization of the event and the test Day.
Too Bad about having to call it a day early on the test Day with our broken Strut. I was really looking forward in doing several good runs in the snow. That was a nice piece of road for a stage.
Had a lot of fun just the same.

If the link doesnt take you directly to the rally piece, just use the chbc website search and type "Big White" The piece is titled "Gearing up". A special thanks and congrats to Dave for doing an awesome interview, I think you will have successfully lured some new people towards the sport!

PS: Love the beard! :p
