Greenhouse’s clean, solid driving and lack of mistakes gave the team its first podium finish of the season and they are sitting in a very comfortable third place position in the championship points with only one round remaining in the RallyAmerica season. Chris had risen to a podium position in no fewer than four of the previous five rounds, only to have a string of bad luck and mechanical problems drop him out of contention. "This was a true team effort," said Chris after the event. "We still had some recurring problems with axle failures, but the team easily repaired everything and we took no service time penalties. All Speed has made this car stronger and more reliable at every event this year." The team employed the services of veteran Canadian co-driver Peter Watt for Ojibwe Forests. Chris and Peter got off to an early start with a second-fastest 2WD time on Stage 1 and kept a comfortable pace all weekend, even though Chris admitted that he needed points more than he needed to go absolutely flat out. "We had set our strategy to collect points and to not make any mistakes at Ojibwe, and Peter and I pretty much accomplished what we had set out to do. We suffered a few mechanical troubles late Friday, but were still able to complete the stages. We lost some time and slipped to third place, and decided on Saturday to simply hold position. Then we saw Andrew (Comrie-Picard) rolled on Stage 11, and we assessed that we could then play it very safe and hold on to second place easily if we stayed clean and didn't make a mistake." Chris also scored one of his highest overall finishes to date, and finished the rally in seventh place overall against a field full of turbocharged and all-wheel drive cars. The All Speed Innovations team will get a much-needed break between now and the final round of the RallyAmerica National Championship at Lake Superior Performance Rally in Houghton, Michigan in October. Lake Superior is known for its difficult weather conditions; rain and even snow are always a possibility.
