I escaped with only minor body damage and no mechanical issues, a rarity for me at times.

After the driver's meeting the cars were placed on the start line for the Concours judging. A popular vote by the drivers determines the winner of the Concours award.

A sunny, warm day greeted 19 racers, competing for 18 starting spots from Bend, OR, Eugene, OR, Seattle, WA. and a host of local racers. Qualifying determined the starting spots for 2 races. The first race is the “B” main (Xfinity Series) and the second race, the “A” main (Cup Series), John Gill (Turing John) posted the quickest lap at 5.269 seconds and received the Fast Time award. 10 racers competed in the “B” main, with the winner having the option to move up to the “A” main or get the winners plaque. The offer goes down the finishing order until a racer chooses to move up. Scary Gary chose to move up to the “A” main. A special “thank you” goes out to first time OSCAR racer Scott, who offered hats and calendars to everyone who attended. The final results shoe how close these events are in the midst of crashes, car failures and provide close side by side racing throughout the field of both races.
