This may be a silly question, but about what time do people begin finishing? I am thinking around noon to 1pm. Right?

Uh...well, it depends who you're talking about. Realistically, I plan on finishing a lot later than that.

The first CC finisher last year would've come across the line right about 9:25 am? Dell came across just after 6 hours, so fast STR members will be coming through around 11:30 for CC.

Justin and I finished in under 8.5 hours, so we weren't there until just before 2pm.

For VQ... the fastest person came across the line at around 10:45, and people we might know (aside from Mario, etc.) like Rut came across at around 12:40pm. But he is way faster than the avg. STR VQ racer, I would think.

Wrecker finished in under 10 hours, so she came across before 3:30.

So, I dunno. Take the times for what they are worth, depending on how long you want to hang out and who you want to see cross the line!

The longer I hang out, the more beer I get to drink. That's never a bad thing.

Hugh, since I don't think you'll wait for me, can you hang an Uncrustable off of one of the trees on Holy Jim for me?
