now we are getting some good guesses. A few more and I'll have to give up the answer. For those that know me well it should be pretty easy to figure out.

Let's just say I saw the trophy yesterday and thought it would be a fun thread. I know you know who I'm talking about.
Another hint "The American Revolution" was the name of the boat.

So would it be fair to say he wasn't "bitchin" when he won the title? ;)

that's true, The American Revolution was always his main race boat. He did get involved with many others but he's a jetter through and through.

Only names that come to mind at this moment are
Dean Willis- but he drove royal flush
Jim McCormick
Bobby Hall- drove going places
It might be Eddie Hill? not sure if he started in Jets. I know the texan was around 77 or 78. But I don't think no Superdave is hangin with Eddie
Possibly GS?
