There were a few intense moments along the way like almost going to the wrong town (with the same name), detouring around a car show, sliding around on a very muddy road, asking curious townsfolk for directions to an abandoned schoolhouse, and leapfrogging past a tractor ride. The navigating and intensity level is similar to what we experience when storm chasing which is why we wanted to participate.

We placed 14th but came in only 18 minutes behind the winner in a 5 hour rally so we're pretty happy about that. We didn't drive very aggressively because we were (overly) concerned about coming in before the "secret minimum time". We were passed repeatedly by a few of the same cars so we must have been driving a good route. Next year's rally will no doubt be bigger than ever and we'll be there!

We tested our new dual-camera picture-in-picture setup for the first time when we streamed this event and it worked great. A bit CPU heavy though so it's time for a hardware upgrade. We had 140 views to our streaming video...not bad!
