Should have entered 8? There was only one other entry there as well. Once again we had a fast enough time to have won that class. It turned out that we competed with the stock mini class all day long, going back and forth with Rod Hall and Gavin Skilton.

Actually there a bunch of Class 8's
I was following them on line as well because I know Noah Ostanik, The only one to finish his class. :)

Well, I dont remember any XX's but I know that when I clicked the Class 8 Tab to watch there were a bunch.

CLASS 8 (Full-sized two-wheel drive trucks)--

801 Noah Ostanik, Encinitas , Calif. , Ford F-150

802 Cory Susag, Mission Viejo, Calif./Matt Parker, Lake Forest, Calif., Toyota Tundra

So I know there was suppose to be at least two? http://www.thewebwheeler.com/forums/images/smilies/shrug.gif

But I just spoke to Noah & he say That he was the ONLY Class 8 in the race.
