16 Jan 2016 Tacoma, WA – In sports there can be no ties, and such was the case in the 2015 for the Pacific Northwest Super Comp Association going into the last race of the season.
Geared up for the last race down at Woodburn looked good on Friday then Mother Nature threw a couple of curve balls that no one seen coming. We all woke up Saturday morning to wind, not a breeze but wind that was bending the trees and blowing anything not nailed down to the north end of the property. It was truly a very unsafe racing condition and the powers that be at Woodburn agreed for the first time to cancel a race for wind. Everyone thought – OK we got Sunday, and we can do this.
The second curve came in the form of heavy rain in the middle of the night and would not let up till the end of day. Now there was a scramble to find a date to break the tie in the standings. A date was picked and the racing began to crown a champ.
For Tom Gresham and Dale Green the cards were laid out. Tom had the odds in his favor; Dale has to win the race to claim the crown. Then fate jumped to Dale as he took out Tom in the first round and the march to the final was on. Dale did what he needed to do and claimed the race and the championship all in one final race. Great job Dale and good luck in the 2016 season to all the players.
Awards aside rules business and the schedule were finalized and the announcement that See It Imagery will provide photography services for the 2016 season.
