2005 Thunderbird

Kathryn and I decide to make another run together, this time at one of the best rally's in all of North America: Thunderbird. This time the car is all sorted and we didn't need to call on Steve to patch us up. Kathryn re-acquainted herself to Mr. Curta and off we went. More awesome driving. We saw all sorts of treacherous driving from foggy twisties to mud and thin powder over sheet ice. We had the pleasure of planting the car twice into the snow bank, but both times the car just bounced back onto the road. No harm, no foul I say. Team Fugawi didn't have nearly the luck as in '04. Our last minute random novice team selection proved to be not so lucky. They were good, but went off the road in one stage collecting a max penalty. It was their first rally, and their FWD car was a bit of risk on those roads. But this was actually not our biggest disappointment. Our fearless leaders had a tough go as well and collected some unneeded points which left us out of the trophies as a team. No worries - we had a great time anyway at the BEST rally I've been to. If you get a chance, go to Thunderbird it's a great event!
