 SubieGal
Racing Wins Season Opener
(aka) Burnsie's Revenge!!!
"Hey I know that corner!"
March 9th, 2003 Montesano, WA – The team
opened the 2004 Rally Season with the infamous
Doo Wop ClubRally series hosted by Ray and
Janice Damitio. This rally is ALWAYS one of the
best as the roads are just fantastic, the
organizers are enthusiastic and the price is
right. Doo Wops 2004 had a field of 40+ cars,
and will go down in the record books as driver
Carl Jardevall and Amity Trowbridge (Evo4)
SHATTERED the infamous Brooklyn Tavern Rally
Stage!! (way to go!)
2004 Doo Wops was particularly meaningful to
the SubieGal Racing team as 2003 left "Burnsie
the Rally Wagon" hanging (literally) on the edge
of a drop off and handed the team their first
ever DNF. Team was looking for a little revenge
--- and they got it!! Not only did they finish
both days, but also took First Place in PGT car
class as well.
SubieGal Racing team driver Jamie Thomas had
a few comments about the rally, “I went in there
a nervous wreck, mainly as I'd not driven in
months, and now I had to face my worst off and
one of only 2 DNF's I've suffered. It took quite
a bit of focus, but the car was going so great,
that when Matt called out "that corner" I simply
shouted 'Hey yeah I know that corner... got
it!!!' We had a good laugh over that later.
Overall, a fantastic event, very productive and
a great start to 2004.“
Team Co-driver Matt Gauger stated, "This
weekend's race was great... It was a real
pleaser being out there... we're getting
faster!" This is Matt's 2nd year as the SubieGal
Racing team navigator.
The only incident of the rally for the pair
was on the third stage of the second day. It had
been raining continuously the entire day
through, when the team came a bit too quick into
a slicked up tight left hand turn. Burnsie went
into a spin, but managed to stop shy of the
trees - much to the pleasure of the team and the
service crew! The team lost approximately 20
desperately needed seconds, but still managed to
finish 7th overall in the standings.
