Always the bridesmaid and never the bride. For maybe the 3rd, perhaps 4th year the amazing racers from the Enabled Tracking team are in the top spot for National Rankings as we go into USARANationals weekend. We don't have a team racing this year, so we will have to wait and see what happens in the next 24-hours to the overall rankings. I honestly don't have the brain power to do the math, but any of the top 5 teams racing in Oregan, have a chance to dethrone us again right at the end of the season. Top kudos go out to Jeff Woods for his leadership to getting us to the top of the rankings, and all the guys and gals who have raced on the team this year. All of them are top of their game in this sport. Let's relish this screen shot for at least a little while longer.
