As far as Rally Colorado goes for Van Way & Slocum here is what they had to say this morning.

Recce went well, they’re new roads for both Dillon and I so we’re in for a challenge this weekend, especially considering the lack of a turbo at this altitude

Dillon Van Way and Ben Slocum are 2 points behind Mark Fox from being awarded the Rookie of the Year Trophy. This is quite impressive as Mark Fox and Co-Driver Jake Blattner are in an open class Subaru!

expect another reliable performance by newcomer Dillon Van Way from Carencro, LA.

They are also 26 points ahead of second place John Conley and with a win in Colorado will seal the deal on their 2009 Rookie Season 2WD National Championship.
