Tom and Brenda Clark of Spokane are primed and ready for the start of the “Pumpin’ Speedster” 200 mile endurance run.

Sunday, “Race Day” dawned with high cirrus cloud cover and temperatures near fifty degrees.  As one four inch exhaust after another bellowed to life in the early morning mist, white coverall laden drivers and navigators scurried about running down mental checklists in preparation for the grueling event.  Gary had them queued up in the neighboring parking lot, by starting number, and called for a driver meeting at 0730hrs.  Last minute instructions and changes to the route maps were mentioned.  Harold Hancock delivered a stirring rendition of the “Star Spangled Banner” and when complete Gary called for the ladies and gentlemen to start their engines.  Ten minutes later a collective roar from forty-seven four bangers reached ear splitting decibel levels as they were off in a cloud of black and blue smoke.
