Ron simply has to take the green light to clinch the 2006 Hot Rod championship. Ames caught fire in the last round and was unable to make the call for round two.
Ron has been suffering from
a cold this weekend, and has lost his voice as a result - his comments at the winners banquet later this
evening should be very interesting indeed.
