I am!(boosted films) Ha, driving from Colorado to Texas right now, longest commute of the trip. I will make one big video about the entire event in a week or two hopefully. Until then, I'm just posting clips here and there and doing Instagrams/Snapchat for the road.

RS crew is hoping for some rain to gain that AWD advantage over the "big bad Wolf" S2000. He's fast!

Did you ask Ronnie (on Vid) which crank they chose? & Ronnie responded Eagle?

Edit: Checked the Hallett Vid again & that was not you

Clutch failure today. The local track shop (G Speed ) allowed the RS guys the use of their shop for the emergency clutch job. (something about bolts shearing on the twin disc)

These 3 guys (Ronnie, Andy, Brandon) are really hard workers (fellow racer, in the pic, who helped)

Clutch failure was unfortunate.

I'm sure those guys set some new Evo records for fastest clutch replacement, though.

Better a clutch than the engine failure that happened last year. These guys sure do a good job recovering though!

Trouble on day 6 just before NOLA. They had a FP fixture failure. These guys are amazing when it comes to diagnosing. Of course the AEM monitoring system helped but here is the temp fix made by Ronnie

They seem to be doing well & are in top contention. The other drivers are experiencing mechanicals as well

They were at NCM today & were doing well until they lost the UICP to throttle body. Andy had to limp it around the track. Not sure why they were not using T-clamps?

Also, not sure where they stand, overall, in the competition?

Certainly seems like a battle of attrition.
