Kudos first of all to the Brandon Model Boaters. Couldn’t have done a better job honoring his memory.
Randy Premo was easily one of our crews favorite people to see at a race site. Memories made throughout the years, even before I joined the fold, are talked about at every race. A racer gone far too soon with a very obvious hole left in the world of model boating, especially the tunnel scene.
I had the honor of running his .21 modified tunnel this weekend. Down a few key pieces on the hull, was still able to piece together a 3rd place finish with the help and investment of my brother, Mitch Jr. (also rebuilt two different .45 motors for me, thanks bro!)
Randy’s impact will be felt for the better for years to come, evident in people like my brother who Randy continually pushed to come back with better, faster equipment. While sad, the trophies earned this weekend will forever be some of my favorites as they bear his name.
Wanted to give another shout out to the Premo family. Providing Chick Fil A lunch for all the racers on Saturday. A gesture not necessary but greatly appreciated.
Can’t wait to do it again y’all!
- I have nothing ready, zero support equipment. Either way I coming out to pay my respects to a dear friend .
