I just wanted to say thanks to Phil Bergeron,Clyde Church,Bob Sibert,Kyle Moretti,Aaron Lang and Skip Tuttle.
And anyone else who helped with repairs done on the SS 8 boat.
I was not able to race on sat. in Long Beach,so Skip Tuttle was going to drive sat. than myself on sun. but during testing sat. morning the v-drive broke just as skip started to accelerate, I'm just glad it happened when it did.
At full throttle or in a turn could have been bad.
It took most of the day to fix it and skip was'nt able to drive it.
I felt so bad for skip as he lost another engine in his own GN boat:(
On sunday we were able to place 2nd in super stock and 3rd in pro stock.
Thanks again to everyone, and are thoughts and prayers go out to the SS 44 team/family and wish him a full and speedy recovery.

Go fast It was nice to meet you as well,
Stop by anytime but your not missing much just a humble little boat repair shop.
I wish the races were during the winter "in the off season" but than no bikinis,
ok never mind:D

Just barely, and sometimes on a good day my family can have food too!
What else is there?
Hey we have fun and do the best we can with what we have to work with.
I would not be racing at all without the continued help and support of people like Phil Bergeron,Brian Bergeron,Phil Jr. Bergeron,the entire Bergeron engineering crew,Bob Sibert,Clyde Church,Danny Sulatie,my Mom,my wife, and son...the list goes on & on and I appreciate everyone's support.
The race community is like one big dysfunctional family but everyone is there for you when you need them always!
I was addicted to the sport after my first race...I truly Love it.
Working on other peoples boats for a living...well I just don't no any better..;)
Just kidding that can be very rewarding as well.
I like it when family's can spend good quality time together, whats better then on a boat in the water somewhere?
