But they don't seem to be posting the results... anyone?

Well, gentlemen, the old man just did not have it in him. I can't explain it, but I was just not up to the task that paticular day.
Good news though, two A.B.f. drivers did place 1st. in their class. Scott Harris from New York in 5 axle, and John Haslet from Pennsylvania in 3 axle for his 3 Natl. Championship.
O well, maybe next year if I do not retire first.

dhiser You gave it your best shot and it just wasn't your day. Better luck next year and if you retire then the last thing you want to be around will be a truck!
