Update
01/04/04 10:30PM PST
There
was a typo in the earlier scores, and it turns out that
Jon Bundrant and Jason Scherer tied for the weekend with
an incredible -81 points. In the case of a tie, they go
to the score of the tie breaker course which was obstacle
A1 this weekend. Bundrant edged out Scherer in the tie breaker,
and walks away with his first victory of the 2004 season.
Update
01/04/04 2:48PM PST
Jason
Scherer just amazed the crowd in a spectacular full throttle
climb up B1. With multiple backups on the course though,
was it enough to edge out Dustin for second? It sure was
and he almost took first place with his driving. We are
still waiting for a few final scores at the momen.
In the mean time, watch this video clip of Jason getting
it up "The Wall".
As
was feared by his competitors, Jon Bundrant took a leap
up the B1 climb and stopped just before the top. Taking
a few moments, he geared it up and creeped over the summit
of the wall with ease. An impressive climb up the hardest
obstacle of the day will give him the top honors spot at
this years Put Up or Shut Up, but not before hitting a cone
in the final turn. This mistake almost put him in second
place. He finished only 1 point ahead of Jason.
It
was another great day of competition out here on the desert
floor. The weather was perfect and the action was intense,
close, full of action.
Dustin
Webster's final comments with a big smile on his face, "Told
ya so".
Update
01/04/04 1:41PM PST
John
Hall surrenders the lead in a frustrating day 2. On obstacle
B5 John was attempting the wall when his rear driveshaft
blew apart.
On
obstacle number B1, John was attempting the "Wall of
Death" when his rear ring & pinion let loose. He's
done for the day, and his hopes of winning the event are
gone.
With
Shannon Campbell rolling on The Wall of Death and Tracy
Jordan breaking on the Wall of Death, Jon Bundrant simply
needs to complete his final courses to walk away with yet
another victory. It appears that he has this event wrapped
up.
Don
Robbins pulled off a sick line in the Rock Tractor on obstacle
B4. He edged off slowly, and cheated what I thought was
going to be a certain roll over. It was an awesome save.
Jason
Scherer and Dustin Webster are battling for second place.
Both are driving flawlessly today, and it's going to come
down to the wire! Jason mastered B5 just a few minutes ago
with only a couple of backups. His 2003 Diablo scaled the
wall like he was on a Sunday drive.
Update
01/04/04 12:40PM PST
An
unfortunate turn of events for Shannon Campbell and crew
just occurred as they rolled hard onto their lid on B1 on
the "Wall of Death". Of course we were on scene
catching the action. Check
out the footage of that roll over here.
This
rollover took Shannon out of the running for the Put Up
or Shut Up title, but it may have knocked him out of the
competition as his bellhousing was reportedly broken during
the roll.
Update
01/04/04 12:01PM PST
"The
Wall of Death" on obstacle B1 has been the biggest
scare of the event. Most have used the winch to get up this
section because of how steep and loose this obstacle is.
However, with Don Robbins making the climb, others are now
forced to make that same climb without the winch in order
to stay competitive. Dustin Webster took two attempts at
it and on the second run up, with a loud bang as he bottomed
out, he nailed the climb. As I sit here now, I can see Tracy
Jordan trying to make the climb, but now on his 4th attempt,
he has had no luck. Oooouch..... never mind, he isn't going
to drive up it this day as he just broke. Check
out the video footage of it here.
John
and Nick Hall are looking really good at this point with
a low score of -9 on obstacle B4 followed up with -3 and
-2 score on courses B2 and B3 Jon Bundrant s also creeping
up course by course. This is looking to be an exciting finish.
Team
Purple has had some bad luck today with a multiple roll
overs and time outs on a few courses.
Update
01/04/04 10:44AM PST
Don
Robbins was first up on "The Wall of Death" Obstacle
B1. This obstacle has a 20 point bonus line up "The
Wall of Death". After a few tries and some rock stacking,
Don shot right up it and recieved a -20 bonus. Click
here for a video clip of Don Robbins making the "Wall
of Death"!
Dustin
Webster and his spotter Jody are still in the hunt, and
were able to pull out of this rock and a hard place.
Update

Sam:
"You are sitting in 6th place currently 15 points behind
the current leader. What are you guys going to try to catch
the pack?"
Dustin:
"Today isn't about catching the pack, its about surviving.
The way CalROCS set the courses yesterday was about fun
and technical driving. Today it's all about adrenaline and
broken parts."
Sam:
"The courses look big and destructive today. Do you
foresee breaking many parts?"
Dustin:
"We are going to be one of the first to attack the
20 point option line B1 and it is the biggest most vertical
wall we have ever attacked. I don't foresee breaking, but
we will probably roll. We are sitting in good position in
the competition, so we plan on running smooth and letting
attrition take effect on the top runners to help us come
up in points."
