Hey everyone. WORKS just recently returned from the Oregon Trail Rally. The race started in Portland OR at the famous Portland International Raceway and included many of the surrounding service roads. It proved to be a challenging 16 stages for everyone with 63 racers starting out on Friday and 24 dropping off by the end of Saturdays stages. WORKS knew the early stages of the rally was going to be a car killer, thus opted to take a more careful path through the tough terrain to make way for the fast portions later on. Dave Mirra and Ken Block were a few of the many names that fell victim to the course.

The last days stages started in Dufur, OR where WORKS driver Lars Wolfe drove the Ralliart to 5th in class, but due to a communication error and penalty of 3:30, Lars fell back to 9th. After completing the final stages, Lars managed to battle back up 3 spots to 6th in class and 13th overall.

After coming off of the Olympus Rally and now completing the Oregon Trail Rally, WORKS has gathered much information needed to help the Ralliart excel this season. We are still learning how hard we can push the Ralliart and the SST transmission and will continue to strive to reach the podium! We look forward to attending the rest of the Rally America events later this season. Enjoy the photos!

Jeremy - The SSP Tranmission is holding up beautifully.

Anyone with a Evo X MR or Ralliart should give us a call to get your transmission upgraded today. These SSP parts are worth every penny for performance or just peace of mind.
