He stops by my shop from time to time . He lives in Palm Harbor . I bought Cals 21 Coyote with the Super Sigre X 15Mark:I agree Marty, I would rather run 3 or 4 big races a year with more entries per class than district races where your lucky to get 5 or 6 boats. Back in the day we ran a district race almost every month and we ran club races between Jacksonvillle, Orlando and Edgewater every month and had good turnouts for both, club races were a blast, of course this was when it was only nitro, we usually finished in time to have fun races after everything was done. Cal Lange and I had a runoff at Orlando one year and I got watered down at buoy 1, so the next race at Lakeland we ran a grudge match after the races just for fun, you can't do that now hardly. That's was Cal's Super Tigre/K&B rear rotor .21, he had some fast boats but didn't always like to turn. I beat him in the rematch, he was way off on the clock, lol, his 21 was fast back then though.
Exactly correct.
I also remember Cal Lang and had some races with him. Not as many as you since I was in Indiana, but he was fast. Even shared the info about his engine and I built one like his. He and Larry Beals were really good friends. I understand he lives someplace around here, but I haven't seen him. Maybe he will show up sometime.
rear disc setup and ran it for years . I still have the original 19 series prop that he used .He is retired and in great shape but boreds . i will get him over to this race to hang out .
