Inside the NCCC Sprint Grid (Week 7)
A blockbuster finish! W9RE (2,052) and N3BB (2,052) recorded the first tie in the series. RE and BB sonic boomed the sprint pack accomplishing in Series VII the following 1). Grid Series Leader tie, 2). An RE/BB 2007 sprint record tie and, 3). An RE/BB divisional win, respectively. Now that is sheer velocity behind those photon powered sprint shoes. Stadium Earth still reverberates and our G4 class star is not yet below the horizon. Who will hit the speed of light and score 3,000 points? The VVA 'X'-prize awaits this intrepid sprinter.
The East of Mississippi Division produced an afterburner race between N4OGW (1,856) and N9CK (1,815). OGW and CK are locked in a classic high frequency duel. This match-up of titans promises an exciting run worthy of an ESPN highlight on Sportscenter in Series VIII. The following sprinters broke best-point in week eight, NS3T (1,107), N2ZN (756), W1UE (680), and KC4HW (90). Congratulations! W9RE tamed the photon winning the number one divisional seat with 2,052 points.
Meanwhile, the one who looms larger than a 100-foot tower, N3BB, West of the Mississippi Division set the side tone with a 2,052 point win. W5JAW (1,530), KZ5D (1,500), and W0BH (1,488) pumped up the WPM rockin' the stadium Earth crowd with an excellent finish. KG5U put the voltage to his score (1,014) a new best. On the other hand, N5DO (1,408) and K5NZ (720) made their first-ever appearance. Welcome to the Grid!
CQ Hall of Famer, N6RO in the NCCC/CA Division continues with a seventh straight divisional win and 16th overall win since 2006. RO is the first to break the 10,000 point barrier (10,120) as well.

The sound barrier is broken and the next frontier is the 3,000 point speed of light achievement. There is one. Who will it be? They told the Wright Brothers 'never' and Kitty Hawk became their legend. They said a man on the moon and many scoffed. Yet, powered by the Apollo program, we did it. The speed of light achievement awaits one intrepid sprinter beneath the starry dome of stadium Earth, such is the NCCC Sprint.
