OFPR: Preview

Round 7 of the Rally America National Championship is the Ojibwe Forests Rally this weekend in the north woods of Minnesota. We are extremely excited to be going to this event for a plethora of reasons.

The first of course is that we’re launching our Terra Firma Clothing line at the event, which I’m guessing you’ve heard of by now. We’ll be at Rally HQ at the Curling Club, Park Exposes, the Bemidji Speedway, Spectator Stages D, C, E and F and we’re definitely not missing the banquet. We’ll also be giving out some gear at the worker raffle, and we’ll be having a raffle of our own.

So stop by and say hello and at least get some free stickers and enter the raffle!

The second reason we’re so pumped like a Ninja, is that the Max Attack! Race series has their final race this weekend. Contestants in 2WD cars will be hauling their cars from all across North America to Bemidji for bragging rights and a pile of cash! Any number of drivers could take the event win, and the 2009 title. We’re pulling for Barefoot Racing and Zedril Rally Sport to finish 1-2 in Max Attack (in any order!)

There is an amazingly tight race for second place in the National Championship between KB, ACP, Tanner Foust, and Andi Mancin. There’s speculation that Foust won’t make the trip to MN, which will earn him -27 cool points if he doesn’t show. So that leaves a 3-way race for 2nd place in the series, with only two events left. Who will prevail and who will perish? Who is going to upset Pas-T’s three-peat at Ojibwe? There are also some ties and heated battles going on in the Central Regional Series too, so we’ll be keeping our eye on that.

Hopefully the weather forecast shapes up and the bugs decide to sleep through the weekend. But if not, who cares, it’s RALLY TIME!
