Greenhouse Concord Pond Stage @ NEFR
 

I don't know if I have ever driven a more exciting and difficult stage as Concord Pond. This is the stage that Ken Block made famous with his record setting run 2 years ago (which got broken this year BTW). I don't think you'll be disappointed in our performance on this stage.

Stage 3, Icicle Brook North in stunning 1080p.

Of course given the dust and searing heat, I find it hard to think about icicles when I drive this stage. The dust was just awful on this stage. The white Subaru ahead of us suffered not one, but 2 punctures, both on the left side, and that's what contributed to our terrible dust issues. Once we got past him, we were much better off.



Tense moment at about 5:23 as we tasted some of the rocks near the road edge. My codriver thought he might have been late on a note, but he was really just fine. I just got lost a bit in the choking dust. No damage, we got right back up to speed.

The first stage is a very short one, aka a "SuperSpecial". We finished it in under a minute.

Stage 4, Icicle Brook South
