Rob W. Vigeant Wins Global Grip Challenge

by Randall J. Strossen, IronMind Enterprises, Inc. © 2004

The Diesel Crew delivered what was described as a tremendous grip contest this weekend and Rob W. Vigeant took top honors.

Clay Edgin finished second and Jedd Johnson was third.

Think the competitors were the only ones who worked hard? Two days later, Diesel Crew's Jim Smith said, "I am . . . still in a trance . . . pretty much exhausted." Buy this guy (and Jedd Johnson) a beer (or a protein drink) for all the hard work put into this contest.
