1997 SEASON

ONE BAD MUDDER

At our first mudbog for the season on May 10th, 1997, Jed Combs (the 1996 defending Dewberry Mudbog Champion), driving the "MOLE MAN," won the trophy for having the most points for the day. On the June 7th, July 12th, August 9th, and September 13th, 1997 mudbogs, Chuck Heineman finished with the most points for the day driving "HOMER II." On the August 9th race day, Chuck's win on "HOMER II" was barely enough -- but still he beat Larry Potenza's "ONE BAD MUDDER" by only 6 points!!! Way to go Chuck!! On the September 13th race day, Chuck's victory on "HOMER II" was by a mere 10 points!! Chuck finished out the season on October 11th by becoming the 1997 DEWBERRY MUDBOG CHAMPION!!! Congrats Chuck! Finishing SECOND for the season was Jed Combs, and finishing THIRD for the season was Bill Burwell. See below for all the stats, final point standing results, and lots of pictures!!
