Antoine L'Estage wins 100 Acre Wood 2011  - Saturday, February 26, 2011
Antoine L'Estage and co-driver Nathalie Richard win the 2011 Rally in the 100 Acre Wood! The privateer Rockstar Mitsubihi crew make American rally history by being the first team besides Ken Block/Alex Gelsomino to win this event in the last six years since 100AW became part of the Rally America series. The victory is even sweeter for Antoine as he celebrates his birthday today. Provisionally, SRT USA crews round out the overall podium, David Higgins/Craig Drew in second and Dave Mirra/Marshall Clarke in third.

L’Estage still on top after SS9  - Saturday, February 26, 2011
Overnight leader Antoine L’Estage has extended his lead over SRT USA driver David Higgins on Saturday’s opening loop of stages by 36.6 seconds. L’Estage won the first three stages of the day, adding to his four stage wins from Friday. Subaru driver Dave Mirra continues to drive steadily and hold on to third overall.

SP driver Travis Hanson has inherited fourth overall and first in class following Ramana Lagemann’s crash on SS8. Roman Pakos moves up to second in SP with Lauchlin O’Sullivan very close behind.

In 2WD, Wyatt Knox grew his lead over a quick Chris Greenhouse by over one minute while Ford’s Dillon Van Way is still in the running for third in class.

Ramana Lagemann crashes out on SS8  - Saturday, February 26, 2011
Ramana Lagemann/Chrissie Beavis have had a big crash on SS8 (Southern Loop S-2). Crew is OK. Only three cars cleared the stage before Lagemann crashed. The rally is delayed as the car is recovered. Lagemann and Beavis are currently (1:51pm) being transited back to Salem. Further details pending.

Smooth sailing for Wyatt Knox  - Saturday, February 26, 2011
Overnight two-wheel drive leader Wyatt Knox expects to coast to a smooth finish on Day Two of 100 Acre Wood. Knox is happy with his result so far and plans on running a risk-free rally on Saturday with the possibility of breaking into the top ten overall.

Knox and Ole Holter, 2010 Super Production champion co-driver, are sitting in the car together for the very first time but have reported that they clicked from the very first stage and now have a good rhythm going.

Chris Greenhouse is 23 seconds behind Knox and will be bringing the fight on today’s stages. Greenhouse doesn’t expect to catch Knox easily but is maintaining consistently high speeds while being mindful of his regional championship bid. Ford’s Dillon Van Way will be playing catch up due to losing time on Friday with ECU issues causing low power in his Fiesta. Van Way will be working to close the 2 minute gap between himself and Greenhouse but is poised for a podium finish either way.

Super Production battle brewing  - Saturday, February 26, 2011
A battle between SP class leader Ramana Lagemann, Travis Hanson, and Lauchlin O'Sullivan is expected on the long Leg of the 100AW Rally. Lagemann and co-driver Chrissie Beavis are rapidly adapting to their new STI and lead SP by less than 20 seconds over Championship leaders Travis and Terry Hanson.

O'Sullivan and his co-driver Scott Putnam were down on power early in the day and also dealt with diff issues, but feel more confident going into Day Two and plan to keep pressure on the Hansons. Hanson and O'Sullivan are only 12 seconds apart after SS6.

Sitting fourth in class is Roman Pakos, who has had a consistent drive so far despite not having his regular co-driver, Matt Sawicki, in the car with him for this event. Evan Cline and co-driver Greg Dorman finished the day fifth in SP in their WRX, which is currently the most underpowered car in the class. Cline is aiming to finish 100AW in the top ten overall.

L'Estage leads after Day One  - Friday, February 25, 2011
Antoine L'Estage and co-driver Nathalie Richard lead the 100 Acre Wood Rally going into the overnight halt by 22.4 seconds over Subaru Rally Team USA driver David Higgins. Higgins and co-driver Craig Drew had some braking issues during the first loop of stages but got them resolved in service before running the final stage of the day. Higgins' teammate Dave Mirra and co-driver Marshall Clarke have held on to third overall after SS2 and go into Day Two with a comfortable lead over fourth position driver, SP class' Ramana Lagemann.

Pastrana crashes on SS2  - Friday, February 25, 2011
Travis Pastrana and co-driver Jeremy Wimpey have rolled on a left-hand turn early on SS2. It's been reported that Pastrana came in too hot and got on the wrong side of the road's crown, rolling three times and smacking a few trees. The crew is OK, but the car is hurt pretty badly - DNF. Cars are arriving in Potosi for the second pass of the Super Special stage (SS3).

Route Modified on SS2/SS4, Spectator B Canceled  - Friday, February 25, 2011
Due to flooding on the route, Organizers have modified SS2/SS4 to be run as SS11. This means that the Spectator B location is canceled – Spectator A and C locations are unaffected.

Competitors will start SS2 (2:55pm) / SS4 (4:30pm) on time and from their original location, but the stage route itself will be run in SS11’s format and on finish on Berryman Road.
