Boy, the twin to yours belonged to Greg. They are so much alike and not sure who snagged it. The Vision boats have done very well at every race that I have seen them running.

HA not quite that thick but you could see the racing lanes for a while.

Good old hot and humid 96 with 70 80%humidty

I have one good race with the sport40, lead the race untill the last corner and was past by Rick Bellinger I had the 40 roundnose in the race and it was moving around the course fine, I just had to back off a bit for the last turn and it sagged a bit and he got me by about 10 foot at the finish.

Rick says that made the trip worth it. Seaweed and junk messed me up three out of four races.

Kim Grim got the points finishing her races. I missed that 68mph run though.

Racing the 40 mono tommorow

Chris Wittrig is doing a fantastic job of posting results the moment I am sending them to him. However, the results being delayed is totally on me. They will be there sometime soon. I have never been to Louisiana so spending time at the French Quarter after racing is my priority.

Those of you who are not here just don't know what you are missing. Racing and socializing. It is the ultimate. We will get results posted...........it just may take an extra day or so.

Thanks, Al Waters
