If you're out there on the stages watching, it can be hard to tell who's going the fastest. Sometimes the craziest, most dramatic-looking sideways action is actually slower than a car that knifes through that same corner. The way scoring works at a rally event means we aren't able to report the stage times until the cars come back in to a service break. But if...]]> http://www.rally-america.com/events/SnoDrift/2010/news/liveupdates/#1465 http://www.rally-america.com/events/SnoDrift/2010/news/liveupdates/#1464 Sat, 30 Jan 2010 19:44:13 GMT Atlanta, MI - Sno*Drift

Art Gruszka and co-driver Dominik Jozwiak aren't showing up on the scoring page at the moment -- this is due to a technical issue. They're 8th after SS4.

Spectators are reporting that Travis Pastrana looks fastest out on the stages this afternoon. Travis is first on the road and has a little bit of a traction advantage right now.
