Jarvis

After having no Tank Truck class last year, Jeremiah Jarvis of FedEx Freight has given it new life. Jarvis competed against a small but mighty field of 18 drivers June 1, coming out victorious.



Last year's Grand Champion Chris Novak of FedEx Express was able to secure a ride to nationals, taking first in 5-Axle. His colleague, Chris Goddard, a returning division winner from last year will also be at nationals in Pittsburgh after finishing first in 4-Axle.

David Doucet of FedEx Express was the third returning winner with Goddard and Novak, scoring high enough to place first in Straight Truck division for the second time.
