\u201cIn 2012 \u2026 Chris Spealler, the legend, driving a comeback that was just ridiculous. \u2026 He is behind throughout the course of this weekend. This is a heavy Regional. \u2026 From a loading perspective, Spealler looked like he was outmatched a bit. \u2026 It came down to the final chipper. \u2026 He had to execute an amazing snatch ladder where I think he maybe hit like 225 (lb) but at the time it was like, \u2018This is insane for someone his size to snatch this much.\u2019 But I\u2019ll just never forget how electric it was.\u201d \u2014 Adrian Conway on his most memorable Regional experience
