Let's see....
Midway through Ojibwe
Dave Higgins: 103 + 1 starting point + potentially 1 finishing point + potentially N results points = 104 + (0 worst case, 21 best case) = 104 to 125
Mark Lovell: 83 + 1 = 84
Mark Higgins: 66 + 1 + potentially 1 finishing point + potentially N results points = 67 + (0 worst case, 21 best case) = 67 to 88
Mark Nelson: 40 + 1 = 41 points
Rhys Millen: 40 + 1 = 41 points
Mark N and Rhys are now out of contention
Mark H wins, Dave H DNF's, yielding
Dave H: 104
Mark H: 88
Mark L: 84
As stands after Leg 1, with Mark H 1[sup]st[/sup] and Dave H 2[sup]nd[/sup]:
Dave H: 120
Mark H: 88
Mark L: 84
If top two swap:
Dave H: 125
Mark L: 84
Mark H: 83
One more slight change, if Dave H wins and Mark H finishes 3[sup]rd[/sup]:
Dave H: 125
Mark L: 84
Mark H: 80
After Ojibwe there are two Pro events left, offering a maximum of 44 points. If Dave H wins OFR, the delta needed to clinch is: 125 - 44 = 81, but Mark L has 84 and Mark H could have up to 88.
Therefore if Dave H wins, Lovell and Mark H have a slight chance at the title.
If Mark H finishes 3rd to brother Dave winning, he's out of the running.
It therefore appears that the AV team cannot clinch the title this weekend, but they certainly could have a powerful lead going into Wild West.
Realistically, it appears to me that Dave H needs to merely hold his position and drive to finish and he'll be in mighty powerful shape going out west.
Rally on!
