Two in a Row for TIM
Now, no longer able to refer to himself as a "tarmac specialist" TIM driver and owner Paul Eddleston slithered his way to his second snowy victory this year in Detroit SCCA's RallyCross at Capac, Michigan. Held at the same venue and in similar conditions where he made the said declaration after a dismal performance, things turned out for the better this time. The course started out covered in snow with two tight 180 degree turns at each end of the field connected by sinewy, back and forth slaloms between them. The track soon revealed itself to have hidden ice patches under the snow and that the two 180s were the key to fast times, by taking them slow. By the afternoon, in the rising temperatures the course had developed a top layer of slimy mud on frozen dirt making it even trickier than the morning. One spin put Eddleston out of the overall top spot but he still retained the lead in M4 and 3rd overall behind Doug Harvey and Steve Baumbach.
A great shout out to the Cassidy's for once again letting us abuse their lawn and to the organization for another great event. Some great video of the wagon in action courtesy of Chris Lanctot (red Tacoma Pickup)
