If I understood Bob correctly in our bad reception cell phone conversion, The TEAM of Mike Shaffer and Lance Clifford won the RRCA event in Framington. To these 2 friends of mine, I say Job Well Done. They set their goals high and achieved them. Way to go and all the other sayings.....:D :D :D
Bring it awn.....

It's also my understanding that some of the Other guys drivers have heard about the tough competition going on between all the California and Nevada Guys and might be looking to join our fun. But so far they have not been able to whip us on our turf......

:D :D :D :D

Yes the RRCA until a couple of weeks was known as ARCA, but because they had used the name of an existing Racing league they were forced to change.
Prize money is or at least supposed to be big.

I thought they were both competing but didn't know they were a 'TEAM'... :eek: Is that Mike driving and Lance spotting or vice versa or what?? Congratulations to both. :beer: :D:D:D

My understanding is that Mike was driving the sami and Lance was spotting for Mike. I could be wrong, but......

Looking at this article: http://www.off-road.com/rock/arca2002/farmington/


I see what I *think* is Lance, but the name is NOT listed as Lance :confused:

Mike was driving ...

... but Lance pulled the strap. How could they loose!:flipoff2:

In this shot, Lance aimed and pulled to make sure Mike got a good hold of A3 ... then he had to drop the strap and run for it!

Dave Gibson works for Mike and used to be the spotter, the media was working off info supplied by the promoter that was never updated.
Again great job guys.
Rich

Ps I'm sorry to hear about more injuries occuring during all events

Mike must've busted his ass this week to make that happen. Congrats to him and fat Bastard as Mike's rig was pretty busted up last weekend. That's two podiums in a row for Lance-he must be getting good at this game. He told me that he was going to compete in RCAA-I wonder what happened.:D

Nice pay day, I hope that someday that CalROCS will be able to offer those kind of numbers, but until then, it's just 100% of the entries to 25% of the field in each class(max of top 10 if 40 entries per class). Someday......
