Ok, I think I've figured this out. According to the rule book nazi's out there red crosses are only for "real" emergancies,and everything else is force majure. So the next time a tree a falls in the road we all supposed to stand around with triangles until we are time barred (except Jim Cox who'll be able to just crawl up into the woods with the Bluck and wheel around the thing).
Well, instead of trying to inject any common sense into the rules (this is racing afterall), I've come up with a better alternative. Using the purchasing power of my hardware store, I'm prepared to offer all Rally America teams special pricing on Stihl chainsaws. They can be bolted down right next to the emergancy spill kit, or wherever else you need useless ballast. Stihl is still working on the homologation for the GrN saws, and of course open class saws will require a restrictor. Pricing is not final, but they should be about 1/3 the cost of a Prodrive or Ralliart saw. Call or email me for details.
Lest you think the above the is just me being silly, what do you suggest we do the next time a giant tree falls and the road becomes completely impassible, such as what happened at LSPR?
