Hey Tim -
The Stick Challenge is in the books! Sadly, only 20 cars could make it back, out of the original 40.
The bounty on me went to my buddy Matt Steen in round 3. He also won the S/SS combo on Saturday, even after breaking a shift finger in the first Q session.
The final round pitted Jim Parsons in his one-owner '66 L-79 Nova against Johnny Diekema in his '65 Corvette, with Johnny coming out on top. Congrats, Johnny!
The forecast was for storms in the afternoon, but all we got was a 3-minute shower. Thanks to the excellent staff and equpment at Tri-State, we were back on track in about an hour.
Looking forward to next near! Big thanks to everyone who put this together!
