Derek Kelley of Crescent City overcame stiff challenges, both from the course and fellow competitors to win the Tough Truck contest at the Del Norte County Fair. The Tough Truck contest is an obstacle course and timed event to prove who has the fastest and toughest truck, to survive the course event. The first place prize was $1,000, a trophy and bragging rights. Kelley and his co-pilot navigator (Bailee Drown) are from Crescent City and were sponsored by “Lawn and Order” landscaping, Crescent City ACE hardware and Two Guys. There were 19 entries with only five vehicles surviving to the final heat race. But in the end, Kelley stood alone as the toughest of the Tough Truck competitors.
