Parker Races.

[dmontzsta]

It was good seeing everyone again. :)
What a long weekend for racing huh? Geez.
I cant wait for V-Drive Video to release the footage, it should be great.
DaveyB glad you were ok and it is a bummer the boat went over, cause it was running hard!
Anyone heard the new about Steve Tustenson? with the P74 boat? is he ok?
BTW: Hey Maxi, do you have your sack back? lol. :D What do you feed Grich? he is a machine!

Well, we could blame the WIND on Ross, but even that was out of his control. He tried to get the finals in, but ol' Mother Nature always gets the last say......I think the correct decision was made to call the race. Especially after the river created a D'Cucci open bow jet boat. I can imagine the busted up flatties, that are considerably "lighter", if they tried to run in that stuff. I thought about Steve all the way home, but he's a tough old cracker racer and I'm hoping for a full recovery and a return to the boats he loves so much. Oh, and thanks to Pat for taking the majority of the "racing grimlins" rath. His 711 boat is right on the edge of success, but we all know how sharp that edge can be. Tony and Crieg, we missed you, but Dennis did a good job in your absence, the "Cone" looked good, as usual. Shane Hall got his first PS heat victory, and I think it was with the little motor!! The PS 929 is a force to be reconded with, for sure....And I gotta mention Dale Hernandez Jr., it takes alot of "moxie" to come out from Minnesota, 3 times now, to race with the west coast guys. He is now headed north to Oregon to run a couple of races up there with a stop off at the Allerton's in Castro Valley, and he said something about a "girl" he met in Bakersfield, (I warned him about Bakersfield girls), along the way......The Rankin team was, well, the Rankin team, thats all that needs to be said. Ron Hill brough us a prop to test, but we never had the conditions we wanted to test it, maybe we'll rent Rankin Lake and be able to get some "homework" done before Long Beach.......Alright racers, 2 months to Burley and you can never start early enough to prepare for that one......Maybe see you there??..............My thoughts remain with Steve, any up dates would be apprieciated...........Ray

What happened to Steve? Any updates?
Thanks,
Randy

I just talked to Steve and he is banged up but ok. Apparently he broke 4 ribs and possibly bruised his heart. After the accident he was released by the ambulance crew but felt horrible and went to the hospital in Parker. The doctor there didn't like his EKG so they air lifted him to Palm Springs were he spent the night. They just released him a few hours ago.
Like Ray said he's a tough old cracker racer and he'll race again...

Why did you need to borrow it again???:notam:

[mostly crue]

Thanks guys for the info on Steve. Amy talked to Steve right before they
took him away and said he didn't look good. Jeff and Joe had to pick him up and put him in the truck.

[dmontzsta]

Great idea! Although we will have to change it from Powder to "Racoon Eyes", especially after this weekend. ****in permanent sunglasses on my face now. We can make some more money and get you some updated technology, maybe 60s? :D

This thread is worthless without pictures.

[RiverGames]

if you were there, you would have all the beautiful pictures right upstairs in the ole' brain. comes in handy too. Expecially when the F'in jet boat lost power and got lost in the weeds for about 40 minutes!!!! hahahaha. out of all the years i havent seen that one before.

Better watch out, they might jump you! :)

I spoke to Tustison today for a long time. He was airlifted to Palm Springs after La Paz County hospital couldn't get his EKG's to stabilize so they thought better safe than sorry. Steve went after his wife made him and after a thorough examination at Eisenhower, I believe, he was released and is home recouperating. Here's the prognosis: 5-6 broken rib's, bruised lung and heart. He was in good spirits and said will be good to race again in the near future. So good news!
I will get the results posted sometime tonight or tommorrow. Very beat and mentally exhausted.
Long weekend.
Ross

which jet boat?

[lilrick]

which jet boat?
blue and white saguaro

[RiverGames]

which jet boat?
it was a blue boat. i dont remember the # off the top of my head. it was a pretty good race too. from what i remember, he was hitting the north side turn and i believe lost power and when right into the tulies. no one could see him until he stood on the deck and waved his hands. im sure someone else reading this will post the # of the jet boat that "momentarly disappeared" from the race track

[RiverGames]

blue and white saguaro
