Nerd Alert!!!

It's early Friday morning and we're off to have a little fun. Hopefully the car will be good and we can just go out and enjoy the merits of our wonderful little race car with no pressure.

We're really pulling for our fellow BMW teams at this point. Since Brian Jarvis dropped out in his 2002, there are three BMW teams left. Bill Arnold and Alan Ryall are currently leading by a slim margin over Roy Hopkins and Adrienne Hughes. Both are prior winners, so they know how to get it done, but it will be a tight battle between the two. They have to be wary of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo of Andrew Comrie-Picard as well, because he lurks not far back, meaning they can't rest and coast home. It should be an exciting finish and we wish our old BMW compatriots the best of luck on the tough final stages.

On a nerdier note, this island is full of awesome rocks. It's like watching geology happen. I sort of want to pull over and look at all the cool rock outcroppings, but Nick keeps saying that we're in some sort of motor race. Oh well, another time.

Here's to a smooth day for the old Bimmer faithful, we'll see you at the finish!
