SPARKS, Md., Aug. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Since April, GEARWRENCH — a premier hand-tool brand from Apex Tool Group — has traveled across the country inviting all to show off their skills in the GEARWRENCH Win a Camaro Challenge. After more than 2,500 participants nationwide, the three front-runners are eagerly waiting to see if their times hold to earn a spot in the final event with a brand new custom Chevy Camaro SS on the line. With five qualifying events remaining, there's still time for someone to break into the top three.

The GEARWRENCH Challenge is designed off the side profile of the No. 1 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race car, driven by Jamie McMurray. It includes four timed activity stations using GEARWRENCH tools. Challengers compete for the fastest times in an effort to win a custom GEARWRENCH 2018 Camaro SS, as well as other prizes.

The three fastest contestants in the nation will be flown to Las Vegas for an all-expense-paid trip to the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series South Point 400 Sept. 16 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

The top three times in the nation currently belong to:

• Steve Steiner (10.294), of Spring Lake Park, Minnesota
