Patrick Richard - Rocket Rally - Perce Neige Blind Man

Watch an entire stage in-car as Richard and co-driver Christian Edstrom drive blind on ice, with NO STUDS, and NO ORGANIZER NOTES, and NO PACE NOTES, at the Rallye Perce Neige. The ONLY instructions provided to the drivers is a road book, which shows "tulips", or just major intersections and corners (you can clearly see it and hear it in the video - and listen as Pat makes corrections to the notes in real time).

Richard & Edstrom won this event, beating the likes of the "Ice Man" Sprongl, Sylvain Erickson and ACP (yet again), to put Pat on his way to win yet another Canadian Championship.

@350yota96 Normally the co-driver has a chance to go through the track and take notes on individual corners, so they can have detailed instructions (recommended speed, things to look out for, etc.). However, on this run he didn't get to do that. He just got handed a road map and sent off, which is just shy of ridiculous

I know what you mean, I've driven my subaru as fast as I could on similar conditions. Lets just say I didn't go very fast and almost crashed about a dozen times.
