The “Paddock” of fine pre-1934 4-cylinder race cars graze at the finish line.

The trouble trophy went to Stacey and Sharlene Hills from Forest Grove, Oregon who started but did not finish.  They lost oil pressure after being passed by Paul Murray about one hour into the run.  Sharlene, who is six months pregnant, assured everyone that being in the family way was not the reason for the early departure.  There were two other DNF’s and one DNS.  NWVS President Steve and Peggy Weber, finished the run and even drove up to the awards banquet about five miles away despite a persistent knock in car #180.  Harold Hancock not only can sing, he can drive a trouble truck, and did so for the Lowlanders.  Steve Tomaso and Diane Kirk pulled one trouble truck for the speedster run along with Jim Amundson who pulled one too. 
The annual “Vern Storey Memorial Trophy” was awarded to Mr. Ron Kipling of Kent, Washington.  Ron most exemplified the outstanding qualities of the late Vern Storey and for that was picked by his peers to receive the award.  Even more than winning a speedster run, this award is the annual events top prize.  Congratulations to the Bueling’s, Ron and Howie’s for representing this chapter so well at this quality Northwest Vintage Speedster event.  Rattler Olsen will be hosting the 20th Annual event, along with the Spokane Model T Club, in the Bitteroots of Montana.  He promised a straight forward run with only one stoplight

Respectfully Submitted,

Mad Max Murray
