Default 3rd place is just second loser.

I and my navigator entered the North West Vintage Speedsters 200 Mile Endurance event. It is a "Time-Speed-Distance" type run that drug us all over the Portland area, through the Columbia Gorge and wine country. We pulled 3rd overall, but there's a fair amount of luck involved. The car ran great, and I'm thoroughly convinced it was the fastest machine out of 18 entries. I'm running a 31 Model A with a "Faultless" style body.

REMEMBER, it's lonely out front, when you're leading a race!
