Maine Forest Rally Video
Well, we blew a turbo and dnf'ed after SS8 but we were having a lot of fun until then! The conditions were great for video, and I have some excellent footage. To start, here's a 20 sec clip of a close call.

Jon, good show none the less.
I know Webkris has vid of that same close call, I'm sure you'll see it once he returns.
I've got some pictures of your car running the second day.
give me a moment to post them.

Strike that.. I've got one pic...
and it's not even a good one.
I was only there for one day and my camera is slow.. so I only get one chance per car.
[i]just watched the video, that's insane that you managed to skip off the top of that rock opposed to being abruptly stopped by it. Kris's vid from what I understand is with you coming at the camera, from a little bit up the hill.[/i]

Wow--gotta love that ride height! This year we used our "Safari" settings and drove right over all the rocks. :D
| Fish | 07-28-2002 03:03 PM |
would have been a good pic, stupid foliage.
how were things compared to last year?
it was less dusty this year thankfully.
did they run the night stage this year?

Conditions couldn't have been better. Not too much dust and smoother than last year. The sun stayed behind the clouds quite a bit, which makes driving in a three layer polyester sweatsuit a bit easier, too.

Jon,
Sorry I didn't get to find you during the event! :-( I had the digital dash in the car as well(although just powered and not actually sensing anything but battery voltage!).
Sorry to hear about your car troubles.:-(
If anyone has pics of our new rallycar, "Steel Tulip," #912, please let me know!
Cheers! John

Jon that was pretty sick, bet that spectator just about Layed mud in his pants. Good driving to recover that. I only got to see SS2 as I stayed about an hour and a half away and never got ahold of info on times and locations of the rest of the events. got lucky finding SS2 just follow the long lines of scoobies.
| Rovah | 07-28-2002 07:31 PM |
Nate and Fishguy,
I don't mean to steal Jon's thread here, but The "Steel Tulip," is silver metallic with reflective tulip stickers on it. Gold rims. #912. Any pics would be appreciated.
Cheers! John

Hehe..you should ask Jgard who that guy is. He knows him really well.;)

You think thats bad try a black audi who can't see a green pole on the first stage in the rec center. I've never seen that many people run that fast in my life. This was the first ProRally I've ever been to, I've never felt so alive or getting killed at the same time
| JGard | 07-29-2002 04:27 PM |
Jon, I just wanted to let you know that I was about 10 feet from you when you almost went down into the river. I was at the corner of the bridge on the same side, but before the river.
We really thought you weren't going to make it. When I could see the bottom of your car, I thought for sure you were going to smash into those rocks.
Nice job pulling out of it, though...even if you did almost kill one of the cameramen. :p

oh, and the "who is this guy?" is the guy that rear-ended me on the way up to the rally.

To spectators who think near death experiences are cute:
You might not care if you live or die, and others probably don't care either. However, you could demonstrate some level of adulthood by staying out of dangerous areas.
When spectators start dying you won't think it so cute. Why? Because, rallying in the U.S. will die with them.
If you need thrills try jumping out of airplanes, heroin, or Russian roulette.

Hi Jens,
Don't be so melodramatic. :D
FWIW, there has already been some pressure to pull that video down. I already modified the end to remove the still of Tan in the stream.
I agree that spectator control was not so good in Maine. I do not believe the answer is to corral the fans like mindless NASCAR hoards into fenced viewing areas 100 yards from the action. Instead, train the most enthusiastic fans (like all these wonderful Subaru owners :) ) as marshalls, give them a vest and let them teach others where to stand safely. If those folks in the bridge video were 10-15 yards back, and a bit further from the exit of the turn, that would be, in my opinion, perfectly safe.

Pressure? From whom? Let me guess :D
Spectators are good, even if they do like Subarus ;) , but they need to use common sense. They are not just putting themselves at risk; they are putting rally in the U.S. at risk.
No melodrama here....jus' da facts.

Has anybody thought of sending the videos of John's little bridge excursion to something like "Real TV?" This is the kind of stuff they just crave.
:D

| Jon Bogert | 08-05-2002 03:15 PM |
Hmm, realtv.com fired a virus at me, so I guess that's not it...
I think certain people would be really annoyed if my video--or Kris's--made it onto the public airwaves.

Yes, but I drove 2 pretty poorly, so I haven't rushed to do that one. Anything special you're looking for along the stage?
