Awesome get those A-hydros screaming!!! Does anyone know what happened to the B-Stock Tunnel trophy that was given out at Mt. Vernon back in the day? Was that a D-4 thing that got transplanted to another race? I got so close a few times, i think they had 30 boats competing one year.

 

[Jeremy Linney]

I gonna try and make it over, sounds like a lot of fun!

 

[Ken Hildreth]

They had two neat traveling trophys back in the day, A really cool B Hydro Trophy that John Benivedes. (I have no Idea if I spelled that right) carved out a mini rigger for the center, and they had the B stock tunnel trophy, neither of which I ever won. ha! Ken

Yeah I remember the B Hydro trophy too. I raced b-stock and b-hydro there for a few years. Never got to hold the trophy though. Those were great looking trophies with tiny chrome props if I remember right.

I blew the dust off the 20 UFO,looks like I will follow Zaker around a few laps.Hey im not too old to learn from the master. We should have a good field of 20 boats.

 

[Ken Hildreth]

Hmmm, should I go out of character and pull out the 20 hydro? It should still be under its cover. haha!

I think we will have about 70 boats, it will be a nice easy going race atmosphere. Bring stuff to test - we will have open water.
