go out and buy the August 2004 issue of Grassroots Motorsports when it hits 
the newsstands in a couple of months.   it will have complete coverage of the 
$2004 challenge.   or hit http://www.grmotorsports.com/challenge.php to see 
overall final results and a few pix from the event.

my '66 crownvertible was good enough for 16th overall out of 77 competitors, 
and received a trophy for the highest finish by a classic (pre-'73).   results 
were as follows:

drags:  18th place with 13.781 at 103.5mph  --  quickest was 10.62 by 
SBC-powered '77 chevy nova

autocross:   18th place with 57.673 seconds  --  quickest was 54.442 by 
turbocharged '78 alfa spider

concours:   tied for 15th with 36.625 points  --  highest was 41.5 by a very 
neat toyota MR2

we didn't have a single mechanical hiccup all weekend, and we even drove the 
car from the hotel to the track and back on both days of the competition!

i won't write up my communique story until after GRM prints their article.
