Default Congrats to Ralph Savares winning ECS CC Event 5

Congrats to Uncle Ralphie taking the win today and the hot and wet race. Over 90 degrees and two showers did not stop "the old girl" from taking win today in a probably the tightest final ever, .00033, over Rob Farley in the battle of the champs.

Also big congrats to Ralph for taking out the rook, finally, in his third try.

More details later but preliminary points show Linke still leading but Ralphie closing the gap.
