As every year this year was no different and I attended to NYIAS at Jacob Javits Center. There was a lot of footage taken by Press Pass TV crew which will be used to make couple of stories for their website. Thanks to Press Pass crew I was also invited as a guest to Joey G. radio show by Press Pass which can be found on their website at www.PressPassRadio.com .

Move to Chicago a reality | Mar-16 2008 / 11:02 EDT | posted by GDorman | Comments

March 29th is the set date for pending move to Chicago. It was a tough decision to make, but few factors made it easier during the process. Yes, it's a fact now and we are really happy about it ... I think. It will be hard to leave NY after almost 10 years. Leaving all the friends and family here is not going to be easy, but we are very thank full for all the help with packing and whatsoever. We are thankful for the friends in Chicago as well and their help. I'm sure we will use it a lot more once we get there.

I was fortunate enough to meet lots of great people from rally community this weekend. First of all Marcin Gladysz and his manager Zbigniew Kotarba. Marcin is a first runner-up of Grand Prix of Poland in his Seat Leon Super Copa. He is in US for bussiness trip. Great guy and it was a big pleassure to meet them both on this side of the ocean.
Big surprise came from Canada. Long time friend Robert Jekosz came to Chicago to see Gladysz, but we were all invited to 2007 Awards baquet of Polish Automobile Club of Chicago and I met Robert for the first time in 7 years!!!

Third place overall in Trespassers Wil, roll on Saturday | Feb-27 2008 / 14:56 EST | posted by GDorman | Comments

We have mixed feelings after 100 Acre Wood Rally in Missouri last week. Friday we had a good run prooving that Art Rally Team pace is going up. We placed third overall and second in Open class at the Trespassers Wil which was another round of Rally America Central Division Championship.
We started Saturday with even faster pace than a day before, but second stage that day and sixth stage of the rally ended our hopes for good result. On the left harpin coming down the hill our Subaru did not slide as much as we wished and cut the inside bank too early, which resulted roll over and we landed on the roof with a broken windshield... 2 onboard cameras and a spectator camera will be able to show the whole action as soon as we get it on our YouTube page www.youtube.com/ArtRallyTeam. Meantime check our new website www.ArtRallyTeam.com for schedules and bios.

Lesko 12th and 5th in his rally debut | Dec-09 2007 / 18:48 EST | posted by GDorman | Comments

Difficult conditions did not stop Slovakian driver Stan Lesko to finish his first event in US. He took 12th spot overall and 5th in Open 4WD class in his Subaru Impreza 2.2 Turbo. He gained a lot of experience at well orginized first rallysprint event at Kearney Rally Village. He used that experience during the second half of the day to improve the driving style and times. I was invited to sit with Stan at his first event and I'm glad I accepted the invitation and brought another driver to US rallying.
