Winter break racing in FLA

[P THOMAS]

Hey took a short vacation to visit the Kids and Grankids and Race some boats too.

My son Jerry race a T boat and granson Drew raced a A mono (20mono)

Thanks to the Melbourne club for a good race, they said it was cool but it felt just fine to me at 65-70 degrees.

Best I did was get a second with my T boat missed 1st by about 29 points.

Raced the scale hydro, Miss Timex had 1100 points going into the 4th round, and all I had to do was finish third and it hit a hole and went over sideways :angry: went from 1st place to no place.

The sport 40 and 40 mono had bad luck and the motors just would not find the needle.

20 mono was running just fine but still needs some trimming to stay on the water, too many dnf.

My Granson Drew had his 20 mono motor go bad so I had to bring a good novirossi to test in it Friday.

We got it running real good and he beat me by 100 points for third place.

I had to give him a cooler shower when he got his first racing trophy

He gets to keep the good motor for his Bday present and I have to rebuild the old one.
