If you only saw the results from NOBM 2009, you might have jumped to a reasonable conclusion: The overall winners ran a clean, consistent, just-a-shade-better rally than the rest. Oh, hell, instead of spinning this tale out, I’ll just relate what they said:

We’d run wide in a right-hander. In fact, we might have gone off, except for a banked cuve of earth hugging the outside of the turn. Since we’d been driving on these roads for hours, it seemed natural to just drive on the banking around the turn. It worked great. And then the black car streaked past us on the inside line; it was a good twenty feet away, given our position on the outside, so it was a clean pass. But then it was gone.

That was the hurtling Bad Dog, catching up to the safety of the 21 & 1/2 minute time slot.
