behind the numbers....
Some numbers……
I have over 3500 names in a database of hill climb drivers
1454 of those people have at least one class win.
Only 236 reached double digit class wins.
As of now…I have 115 FTD champs.
Currently there are only 11 drivers(edit for the latest entry FTD winner!!)that are active that have achieved FTD…name them!
Only 7 drivers all time have double digit FTD wins…name them!
(remember, archives does NOT have a complete set of results, getting close…but not complete)

Re: behind the numbers....
You have 9/10 on the active bunch. One of your guesses, I have no record (yet) ever FTDing.
You are 4/7 on double d's...you should be able to figure the 3 you're missing out!

Re: behind the numbers....
Ron, you can add one to the current list of active FTD holders! . I'm so excited and honored to have my name next to these other folks. One race weekend I will remember for ever.

Re: behind the numbers....
Thanks Ron and Morg! I really need to thank George. It's a shame that he couldn't have been there, I think that hill record would have fallen.

Re: behind the numbers....
Was looking at some data...I believe Jeremy is the first person to FTD with a 4 door car...it is certainly the first Mitsubishi and it has been a while (if ever...hard to research this) since an FTD car has been driven to an event!? Good stuff!

Re: behind the numbers....
I was going to ask you, Ron if a 4 door ever took FTD? wish I could have been there to see it.
Jermey, a great drive! Just because George wasn't there, you still had to "drive it like you stole it"
Now you are a part of PHA history! aside from all your records
