We had a great time. Congrats to Matt and Hobie. The fact that there was 6 points seperating 1st thru 3rd place prooves that this is a drivers class. It was all about technical driving and spotting. Jerry worked his ass off all weekend making sure I was in the right spot. We just made one mistake and that was the difference between 1st and 3rd.

It was actually nice watching you two work on C2 on Sunday. If you didn't know (but I'm sure you do by now) you had the best score on it of the day, even beating out the smaller stature stock mods that had a slightly easier time of it.

But back to you guys, you really do work well together, better then many I have seen in the events I have been able to make it to for WE ROCK.

Lastly, I had a pleasure judging your group as a whole (Stock/Rhino/FToys). You all are great to watch and it's almost like the pressure of the event doesn't get to you like it does the others. I even had one FToy group ask where I had been since they hadn't seen me since PUSU.

Maybe I'll switch into the "C" group as it seems most judges would rather do the unlimiteds/pro mods. I'm not to picky about where I'm at and had a heck of a lot of fun with you guys/gals.

Congrats to all who came to play this past weekend. :) I'm hoping from here on out that I can make it to all the rest of the events so hopefully I'll see you there. :)

thanks.:) there definetly is some chemistry to spotter and driver..i see so many that seem to be fighting or just not getting along too good. or they get frustrated at each other...

True that. :D

Hey if you two can make it through a "Gay Pride" course and still be as strong then more power to you! :laughing:

Hobie and Mustard are true Entertainment and a good team too! John and Fatty are cool under pressure and very experienced - tough to beat! Should be an exciting finish to the season. I liked seeing the other teams step it up in Globe as well - Sam and Bernie, Pat and the new guys... Congrats! Bring it on in Seattle.

being cool under pressure is proabably the most i have learned from john and fatty. when i was a rookie, when courses went bad, they went really really bad. if things didnt go as planned, i didnt know how to recover in the "fog of war". i have also wathced matt get good at pressure as well. the last course of the last day, matt got all messed up between cones, and i said to john, well, he just threw away first place. BUT he and craig kept their head and pulled it out and got a good score and held the lead. matt and craig are a really good consistant team.

Yes she was. She wasn't supposed to judge that weekend but we ran short of judges so she stepped up and did it.She's right on the money when she says this group is a blast to judge,I had a great time with you in Henderson.
