Default Rob Farley, Rob Farley and Mike Conway close the season with Event 10 wins

First, thanks to Jerry, boogieman, for loaning me his netbook and I am on beer 3...so bare with me.

Rob Farly pulled off the greatest feat I have ever seen in racing. Entered four classes today. Won two of them and was runner-up in another. Only lost round 1 in one. He was taken out by Boogieman in the gm efi 11.50

Rob won the Corvette Challenge and Corvette 11.50.
runnereup in GM EFI brackets.

Mike Conway won the Pro 8.50 shootout over Jay McCardle.

I will do a separate championship title post for each driver tomorrow with some stats for each driver but the big news is Rob Farley defeated Eric Fischer in round 3 to put himself in position to take the title which he did.

Now I think someone may need to drive me home....

Having dinner with Rob, Linda and their kids, Doug Bereczki and Jerry and Vanessa.

Talk to you guys later!!!!!!

Congrats Rob...i have never seen a greater performance ever!!!!

Congrats to all of the winners!

And what an exciting finish it was in the CC. I did my best to stop the Farley freight train but it just wasn't meant to be. Congrats Rob!

He was paired up with Steve Wells in his blue C5 Z06, it was a great race but Jerry just had a little bit more.

Congrats to Rob Farley, Mike Conway, and to Jerry Muniz. All of you did a great job yesterday.

Another ECSCC season in the books. I believe this is our tenth year.
I just wanted to take a moment and to thank all who participate in our Corvette Challenge race series, all of our sponsors, and our ECSCC race series coordinators.
