Looks like Watson was 26th overall, and 11th in class on Friday. 15 cars in class completed both laps, and 18 were running, if I am interpreting the charts correctly.

Hope for better results today!

As of now, it looks like Watson 6th, and Ward(In Polvoorde's Car)8th. If those results hold, a solid day!

On Edit: They just revised the finish order to 6th and 7th.

For whatever reason the 2 seater cars seem to be better race cars then the 4 seater conversions.

I meant overall, these are sort of the same setup they ran at KOH. Every race they've entered the 4 seaters in has ended with one or both cars DNF.

The Mint 400 both cars didn't finish, I dont know if they ever said what it was. Ive heard the throttle return angle sensor messed up.

The Reno to Vegas race they threw a rod in one car, the other finished.

Anyone have a link to a stream?

I've never been a fan of hard 4 seaters (as opposed to the convertables).

I have never driven a hard seat 4 seater on tight trails, can tell you sometimes our P-1 is long for the trails we like?

Hell, the two seat Talon R has the turning radius of an aircraft carrier. :oops:

That's why we have a P-1.I'm just kinda dumb founded by Honda , they come out with a R, RX live valve & X, seems like the R should have been set up for high speed stuff, like dunes, the RX live valve as well it's not a tight woods buggy with the option for a turbo on both models. The X should have been set up for the tight woods and rock crawling with softer suspension????????????????????? I don't think corporate Honda understands off road. And as I have stated, they need to include real skids, real tires and shocks. No our P-1 isn't going any where, I've spent thousands to make it a decent trail buggy and it is. On the tame Honda SXS club rides, I will show up in our P-1-5, other wise?????
