 | Drill competition
Drill for this evening was going to be a vehicle extrication competition. However things were going to be different. Two teams were formed and after a coin toss the winning team got to choose if they wanted to use the Hurst Rescue System or air tools/electric tools/handtools for the operation. Each team was given a side of the vehicle to work on. The goal was to remove both doors, cut all posts, remove "B" post and one of the front seats.
