Impressive driving skills from Rod Millen (DNF in a modified Toyota Tacoma 1000 HP truck) and Per Ekland (won class in a Saab 9/3 at around 12 mins). Top speed over 105 mph on dirt road, 156 turns, with dropoffs of several hundred feet. In-cockpit camera shots feel like a Cessna 180 on takeoff. A RUF Porsche ran and finished.

Terry, that Ruf ran with us at an LMS DE last year in December. The owner is Steve Beddor who is from Minnesota. Anyone with an interest in Audi Quattros should recognize that name. His family owns the only three Audi Coupe Quattro Sports in the country and they host an Audi get together at Brainerd every year - a very nice car family. For pictures, see my site - the link is in my signature below.
