Back To Normal at NEFR
[ July 17th, 2008 ] By: Charles Smith Posted in » Ramblings
The New England Forest Rally was this past weekend, and unlike STPR’s results, NEFR was back to what you might expect: Coming in first was Niall McShea and co-driver Marshall Clarke, followed by Andrew Pinker/Robbie Durant. Rounding off the podium was Travis Pastrana/Derek Ringer.
This is good news for American Rally racers. Niall McShea has had 32 WRC starts, placed 9th in Rally Australia in 2004 and was crowned 2004’s PWRC winner. While you may not think that it is good news that a PWRC winner is stomping Americans and Canadians in Maine, you have to look at the pace that was kept. Travis Pastrana was only 2:43 behind McShea and only 1:18.9 separated Pinker from McShea.
As this beautiful sport grows in America, the gap between Europe and America shrinks in terms of Rally talent (see also Colin McRae not finishing 1st in the X-Games to Pastrana).
