Stripes wins GL70 2008 Season Championship

Congratulations to Bill and Sally Martin and the crew of the GL 70 Stripes for winning the 2008 Great Lakes 70 season championship. The Martins wrapped up the 13th GL 70 season championship by defeating 2007 season champion Tom Neill aboard Nitemare (season, 2nd place) in this past weekend’s Chicago Verve Cup. In fact, Stripes overcame both Jack Jenning’s Pied Piper (season, 3rd place) and Nitemare in the Verve Cup to capture the 2008 the GL 70 season.

In its 13th year of awarding a season champion the Great Lakes 70s had ten sleds competing for honors. The racing remains close with GL 70s overlapped at nearly every mark and four GL 70s being overlapped during a finish at the Verve. Stripes is the eighth different GL 70 to be crowned a GL 70 champion. For more information on the Great Lakes 70s contact the Executive Director, Sam Nedeau, at SamNedeau@gl70.org
