I'd like to thank everyone for there help this weekend.
Ty Newton...Great job buddy. Having years of experience sure paid off this weekend and it showed with a dominating performance.
Jim Newton...Thanks for all the help between rounds. And I don't care what "Fast Lane Fitzy" says about you. I still say you play for our team :rollside: .
Bubby Wilton...Tuning and giving advice from you and Julian as usual is always welcome.
Joey Grose...For all that H.P. from "Joey Grose Racing Engines", and tons of help on keeping her running ahead of the pack.
"Bolt Nazi" aka Allen of "Allens Fasteners"... For keeping the K-5 full of fuel and giving Ty those driving tips while holding the boat before the start of the heats on Saturday.
Brother Bobby...For trying to keep up with the clean up between heats. Thank God the "EPA" wasn't there or we'd of been in deep $hit :rollside: .
Son Connor...For WD-40'ing after the heats and for holding and getting the "K-5" back to the trailer on Sunday. Not to mention the butt of many jokes.
I also need to thank Clyde for the hook up on the air assist. Without it Ty would be walking alittle weird today.
Dave Rankin for the prop. By the way Dave, it is minus a bit of an ear. But not to worry I think I have enough JB weld to fix it. :rollside:
And last but not least "Fat Elephant Bastard" aka Pat Eason & Mike for bringing the badd ass hauler for all my wants and needs. Without all this help and support from everyone we wouldn't of been able to have the weekend we did.
Thanks again from the "ORANGE HEADED STEPCHILD" racing team!!!

] Thanks for the pic's of the K-5 and of our buddy Jim. Hated to see Jim's accident and the awful feeling you get when you see a buddy go through what he went through. Jim's a really good guy who brought really nice equipment to the races and just loved being part of the circle boat thing. Luckly he will make a full recovery. The boat not so much. Good luck Jim.

I am glad Jim B. is alright, he is a great contributor to the sport and has always been very pleasant. I hope to see him around again, he is a tough guy, so I am sure this will not keep him down long.
