The goal is in the first rally to finish. And you guys did that!!! For some, may seems a bit of a low goal, but they usually never drove in rally before, so that is why they think it is...

Congrats for the fist rally in the book!!!!!!!!

I looked at the results and I think you did a little better than just finished, didn't you end up 4th overall?

congrats on the finish! better than finish, these guys took 3rd in the open AWD class. and that's saying something considering the ridiculous attrition rate of the open awd cars this rally.

I'm getting people mixed up. supasixfo finished 4th overall. This might be the first time in the history of EvoM where two member were competing in the same rally.
