Nope, they were stomped into the ground by a 25 year old 1.6L AW11 with some young kid driving it :D

They were announced Tuesday evening post dinner celebrations.
 
Outright Top 3 was:
1st - Ken Matsuda - AW11
2nd - Steven Marlon - EVO
3rd - Travis Webb - E30
 
If IIRC, the was 0.27 points between Ken and Steven

Interesting result. I guess my regularity result let me down.

1.11
I went much slower than that
 
I was in the top two or three outright in all events except for regularity (which was an epic fail - 16th position from memory) and came 4th outright in the hill climb.
 
Doesn't matter

Non MR2 vehicles only qualify for "outright" hence Dirk my E30 makes a appearance in the outright standings due to consistently being mid top 10 in every event and winning the regularity event outright by pushing the red EVO around the track :) 
 
(non MR2's are not eligible for the other classes and i agree with this completely, otherwise i would have had a modified street plaque too, and the EVO's would have had plenty as well)
 
I think everyone over thought the regularity event and that is why i was so shocked i won it. However if the Celica with 4AGZE was not held up on one of his laps he would have won it easily, as his lap times bar one were perfect!
 
But that is just the way the cookie crumbles, makes me laugh when people get upset about not winning things.....
 
 
 
 
 
That being said i was cut up about being 4th in 2013 instead of 3rd because i did not do the special stage ;)
 
 
Thanks to Steve for holding the event and at least bringing his "LAMP" 

 
I am broker than i have ever been before but thats ok, i had a great time. Tired as though after 1,600 kays of driving.... 300 of which were WOT on the track. Work today was a killer!
 
If anyone has any images i would love to see them.

... just thought Marlin would have got top spot. From memory, there were 8 timed sessions and he won 5 of them.
Tuesday's times aren't on Natsoft though, so my memory may be failing me.

Nice to catch up with you all!
 
I had a depressing time ha ha, hard to sit and watch everyone and not wish my car was there!
 
My car was the heaviest car we had on the scales 2.2Tonne! (well my work ute. That was with all my weight reduction i did before i left by taking ladders off, tools, most stock out ect)
 
Was a tad heavier when i was towing the supra and trailer at 1AM back to the track, boy did i have no brakes!

The scoring was done on a time accumulation calculation (except for regularity) which means, even in the events where the EVO was top dog, he might have only been 0.5 - 1 second ahead of the next car, leaving him with very little lead. So even winning 5 events in a row could only be ahead 5 second lead at best. This advantage lead is easily taken away in something like the regularity where a couple of bum laps could see you down 5 - 10 points.
