Team Davis smothers the fast class competition with their back up boat: #535 yellow Hondo as seen in the wildest V-drives photos! Ron, Mr. Oregon H2O spanks the huge ski class for a huge lead on a repeat Nostalgia Driving Championship. with newcomer Todd in his Jones small block taking a surprising second and Rookie girl Cheryl (Hondo Sangers daughter) one point behind in third!
Then the biggest surprise: Sharon, daughter of the #65 Tinkertoys owner just plain out ran the hydros in the Vintage Nostalgia class in Mr. Olsons #1 Wickens flat! So now we have three awsum girls battling the matcho guys for overall driver bragging rights!
I, on the other hand had a heaping helping of humble pie as my new ride killed the aluminum flywheel! But, the boat floats!
Over 14 boats survived the choppy water and hard racing but not without major mechanical carnage! And the biggest surprise was Unlimited Hydroplane driver, Nate Brown, finished one heat in second with his newly restored 1965 Lauterback 225! Our white and red Jones 266 spanked him on the long course, much to everyones disbelief. Hey, we have some experienced nostalgia drivers since its our fifth year of racing.
Here's a bit for you oval port square port dudes! Cheryl torched a 990 head and the ULHRA guys loaned her an 049 oval port which went on the port side and the tunnel ram covered up the mis-match! She was right behind the flying #8 Aquacraft of Ron and surprised the whole dang bunch! Her Sanger boat ran very hard! Hey Al, I told you the bent prop was OK! Now, do you believe me? So, how could this happen you port matching gurus!? Brian ,Al, and Jeff should have a leg up on the Pit Person of the Year award for this awsum feat!
Finally, Mr. Super Lite and GN's K boat 'Freedom' were the shinyest of the whole bunch and Rick was awsum as a Nostie Volunteer Staff member! Next year should be even better, and of course, all you fast Californian circle boaters are welcome to our green Northwest.
We do it all again this next weekend at 'Racers Reunion at Banks Lake'! Harlan Orrin will be our distinguished VIP and judge of the 'Best Engineered Award'!
