Pitkat Brings Home the Show Money at North-South Shootout
2005 NSS SK Champion Finishes Third This Time Around
CONCORD, NC (November 6, 2006) – This weekend, Woody Pitkat headed to Concord Motorsport Park (NC) with some pretty fond memories. In 2005, he was the winner in the SK Modified portion of the North-South Shootout. He wasn’t able to exactly duplicate those memories this year, but walking away with the show money wasn’t too disappointing either.
“It was a good run,” smiled Pitkat, after finishing third behind Tom Rogers, Jr. and Bobby Santos, III. “I didn’t know what to expect. Last year we started fifth and we got the lead pretty early, and this year I just didn’t know. I had to start in the back, and it was definitely a lot harder coming from back there.”
