We are really starting to get a lot of user submissions and we are always blessed when we have someone with writing or photography talent on-hand at events. Thanks for the pictures, Quinn.
Anyways, the Olympus Rally this past weekend was a fast event; competitors were reporting 130mph speeds on some of the long straights. Crazy. Ken Block turned a first place overall finish, which is his second in a row. Travis Pastrana came in second overall, and Tanner Foust rounded up third. Evo driver Andrew Comrie-Picard brought in a fourth place finish.
After three events, the standings in Rally America are:
1. Ken Block
2. Andrew Comrie-Picard
3. Matthew Johnson
4. Travis Pastrana
5. Kyle Sarasin

Thanks for the kind words Chris! Hopefully I should have more pictures on flickr soon, but I have so many to sort through. It’s a pain in the ass. I’m glad I don’t do it for a living!
You should do a story about Dave Mirra! He did a great job at the race even though he made some noob mistakes. It’s always fun to make fun of a ‘pro’ driver when they miss shifts, or do something else completely stupid!
It was a great race, the rallies are getting so much better in our region. The local rallies have been a lot more competitive, and its always just as exciting once the pro cars have passed - you gotta watch for crazy rear wheel drive cars trying to kill you!

Great shots!
It was good race and the weather cooporated nicely, meaning we didn’t get snow and wind blew all the dust away!
Pomeroy is a good area to watch a rally. You can see the cars approaching from a distance instead of your view being blocked by trees.
