Gymkhana is done!

Postby Loren » Sun Mar 03, 2019 5:10 pm

I know events like this are always fun, but this was even more fun that I expected it to be! Can't wait to see the photos and especially the videos.

Here are the results!

I'd like to congratulate all the younger contestants for their participation. Y'all made great effort. Pat yourselves on the back!

Philip - thanks again for the loan of your car!

Next time the middle-aged participants need to take a play out of the geriatric book to make sure we're more consistent... [emoji1787][emoji23][emoji24][emoji2961]Image

Lots of videos showing up on Facebook. I'll share a few, starting with mine:

This is Philip's FTD, but it's on FB and I don't think I can embed it... and I'm not sure if it's public.

Videos = YouTube... much easier to share that way.

I never thought I’d be in a situation where I was bouncing off the limiter in reverse, I’m happy to say that today proved me wrong. Good fun with good people :thumbwink:

I think we’re on to something with the teams format. I could see that working well for another bonus event, maybe with captains picking teams beforehand or something. Encourages teamwork and trash talk :twisted:

We've done the team thing before. It can be fun, no doubt.
