  • Concord Pond, my favorite stage of the New England Forest Rally and perhaps the entire American Rally Association schedule, was one for the record books this year. Alex Gelsomino and I drove the Hyundai i20 WRC car harder and faster, with WAY bigger air than ever before.

    Ken: “I just wanted to be safe & finish the race” cut to his car going sideways through the air at 120

    Ken will never stop shredding, even when he's no longer with us. The laws of physics will not allow him to be forgotten, he tore the whole world up and did it with all four wheels ripping. This video is all the proof you need of a real life superhero.
    The tire marks will remain and so will the legacy of footage he blessed us with. I'm sure wherever Lia goes in life, her father would be infinitely proud of her.

    You can hear Alex struggle to talk after the double jump. I winced when they landed. Sounds like it blew the breathe out of him. Freaking fantastic job you two!!! Absolutely crushed that stage. I'm shaking after simply watching the footage.

It makes all the effort we put in leading up to the event that much more worth it- especially for the few of us who spend hours out on the stages the day before hand to make sure everything is set up. I have been volunteering or organizing for NEFR since 2004, and I greatly appreciate it.

As soon as I saw the car in the thumb and the name of the driver, I knew this was going to be an epic run.
