MT.VERNON IL RACE

[P THOMAS]

Race turned out nice, little cool and windy Sat Sun day was nice but still the water was a bit choppy.

All my boats ran well, scale got 1200 pts and made the final but flipped on lap two. sprt 20 and 40 got the first place. B 20 mono got a second place, hit a bouy in first race . The kid Gavin took the win in B mono. Gavin got third place in the sport20 hydro class too.

Good bunch of sort 40 hydros came to race.

I met the Tunnel King too James Beasley

Here is a vid of the scale final.

Start was crowded and I went wide, got thru the first turn chasing Matt Schimick Geronimo,

we were racing close but my Timex took a dive on the second lap.

Sorry Kenny your boat wasnt in the pits when I took those pictures, it was a plain white brand x boat by some guy in Canada. And the only boat to give me a second place in the heats.
