"How exited was I to win my class at Jamboree and on top of that to win the Garrett Turbo Contingency Prize! I'm looking forward to racing next year with faster mile per hour. May have to get a parachute lol. Big thank you to Rob Stafford at Garrett by Honeywell. I am one happy racer!!" said Christine after the event.

Christine was the best on the tree in the final from the winners of Street Compact, Street 289, Modified Compact, Modified 10.5 & J275 racing categories that met the Contingency Prize requirements.

For her stellar performance Christine was presented with a turbocharger of her choice as well as Garrett merchandise for her family and crew to the value of $3000. Christine eagerly chose a Garrett GTX3582R turbocharger along with accessories to add to her XR6. Congratulations Christine!
