Schmutzwagen and crew had a fantastic weekend at the Southern Ohio Forest Rally! The team earned A 3rd place podium in Regional L2WD.

Calvin decided to sacrifice some time in order to earn some rally Karma and attempt to pull out another BMW competitor. This dropped them down to 3rd. They arrived back at service with underbody protection dragging and the fuel tank strap had come undone. Our crew chief Michael Stock jumped in and with a bolt from our Bearded Ryno friends the car is headed out for the last loop of stages!

After looking over the car this morning everything looks solid for another day of battle at Southern Ohio Forest Rally . Chris Sladek is only 12 seconds behind them so they boys had better keep up the pace if they want to keep their podium spot. Tight Limited 2 battles are so fun to watch!

A beautiful sunset and finish to today's stages! Calvin and Michael moved up to second place but another full day of stages tomorrow means anything could happen!

First loop of forest stages are done and the team is currently sitting in 3rd in regional Limited 2wd. They are only 45 seconds behind second place! Hoping to improve times on the second loop and chase down Bukky in the Honda fit!

The team had a blast at the Chillicothe super special last night. Today they have 8 stages of super fun and technical forest roads!
